My bike is a super glide.
I am not aware of ANY trees on a production Dyna having rake built into them. Of course there is a rake built into the stearing head angle of the frame neck. Is that what your referring to?

RE: Raked trees for Dyna
I know nothing about Rake...
How do I know what I want ?
I know I want to bring the front wheel out more giving more of a chopper bobber look.
So how much will it stretch out the front tire, how many inchese with a 3% or 5% ?
