I would be wondering why someone replaced the triple trees. About the only reason i could think of would be the bike being in a crash and suffering front end damage.

Some great responses here. I looked at the Accutronix page and that's what it appears to be.
It could have been in a accident, I don't know. I got it for a great price; traded for a sportster even out. I think maybe it has a little more rake (what do you think) and that's what the person was going for; at least I hope so. I checked out the bike well before I made the deal and it doesn't look to have been hurt. If it was it must have been minor. Like you said, maybe just the front end. Maybe the previous owner just wanted a different look.

This is what I believe I have:
http://www.accutronix.com/p/triple_t...glide/575.html
Looks just like like, and I believe mine has the 3 degree. Just looking at stock super glides makes me think is has some rake, but not much.
Thanks again for the help; I love this forum
