Default another glide question.

i just bought 6" over tubes for my softail standard and looking at getting new trees. most are asking if it is midglide or narrowglide. i think it's narrow for the stock FXSTI but not sure. i liek the frontend on it just want to extend and do a 3* rake

Ok, the softail standards come from the factory with wide glide forks. Also, depending on year many softails come from the factory with raked trees already. Around two degrees. Hopefully a real pro will chime in.

ok. i'm going with a 3* bearing cup ofset and a 6* tree rake so with 6" over front end should lower in nicely.
