What do you mean by raked? The Train did have a bit more rake than the other models that year and wouldn't be able to bring it "back". Then there are raked trees and lowered ft ends. I put 5 degree trees and lowered my tubes an inch to get a 'level' lower frame rails.

What year NT have you got ? Earlier ones were raked out to 34 degrees,later models 32 which is most of them I think. If you want to return it to a the standard rake you'll need stock trees and fork tubes, assuming that you want to keep it level, unless it's already got stock trees and the previous owner used fork cups which apparently alter the rake.

have a set of chrome stock trees if you're interested. (if the ft end is shorter it's most likely the previous owner simply cut an inch or two out of the inner spacer) Why don't you post a couple of pics?

I had problems posting pics also, I had to resize 50%, that's why they look so bad, lol
