Hello every body, i need help, just because my 2011 newer blackline softail model, i cant find a triple trees replacement, i have looked on the aftermarket trees but i dont really know wich one could fit properly to my bike, i bought it crashed on the front end, so, somebody know which softail model triple trees could fit properly in my bike?, i mean i have found lots of trees for wide glides and other softails but no blacklines, i have found good prices too but i am a little nervous about the fitting
The Blackline uses model specific trees from the factory. As far as I know, there are no aftermarket trees specifically for the Blackline.
Don't let this discourage you though, as the front end from many Softail models should bolt up just fine to the frame. It won't be an "official" Blackline, but it'll still be safe and functional.

Very True, but you will have to get different handlebars that will work with the new trees.
As 24v stated, Todds cycles has a top clamp that accepts regular risers and bars. That is the route I took with my bike. I have my stock Blackline top clamp and bars if your interested. I also have the stock cables minus the brake line. Let me know.
The key with the Top Tree is whether or not you want to mount the speedo back to stock location. Todd's Cycle or a Stocker would be the only two ways. If not you can use any wide glide 51mm top tree I would assume. I went with Todd's just like SoftailBrian.
