Has anybody ever put a springer frontend on a Deuce ?
I have a 2000 Deuce and am thinking on putting a springer frontend on it ?
I would like to put a stretch frontend on it if I could get away with off-set triple clamps.
I'm not looking for a really stretched frontend, but something about maybe a foot more stretched out.
Any ideas ?
Thanks for you input and ideas,
Bobby Field.

 

havent seen anything like that before, if you do it, post some pics!

 

A foot streched out?

Looks good. But I'm calling BS on that ad. $4200 for that Deuce? No way!

 

The bike ain't bad either !!!

 

That is a "Dragon Springer" built by American Suspension.

They are pricey but they are completely custom. You order the rake you want from 0* 3* or 6* and the length. A hint: If you order them long, you can cut them down to the size you want.

If you contact Don Gray he tell tell you anything you need to know about spacing and installation.

Yeah, I'd like to move the front wheel about a foot more forward by raking the frontend and longer forks.

 

Yeah, that isn't bad and is kinda like what I'm looking for, but this is a stock replacement frontend without any rake added to it. I'd like to put a springer frontend on with a longer than stock springer front forks and add some rake so it doesn't raise the front of the bike up.

 

You shouldn't add rake to a springer frontend unless the rake of the neck is over 45 degrees. If you want the tire out that far, you either need to rake the neck or lengthen the down tubs, or both.....
