HHI Hawg Halters 5 degree trees (wide). Just added Wide Glide OEM fork tubes and springs + chrome lowers. Overall with the tree set up and longer forks, they should be 4 inches extended over a stock Superglide. Steering is a bit heavy at slower speeds but tracks like a train on rails going straight

I wouldn't call it a chopper, but I would call it very well done with a nice 70's flare.
