Tripple trees
Tripple trees
Toying with a few ideas of things to change. Was wondering if any one could help me out with what brands of triple trees are out there that are good. Seam as though most of the best brands are US made, I figure this is the best place to ask around. I know a few but I'm sure there a few more I haven't heard of, hopefully at a good price. For the night train. Cheerios!

I don't know how long they've been out, but I saw in the latest Arlen Ness catalog that he makes some trees now..
When I was toying with the idea, I was debating between Seeger Cycle and Hawg Halters

I'm running the pro one 0* with no issues. Got them gently used on eBay for super cheap. Finish is nice, they installed easy, and I haven't needed to adjust or tweak them at all.
One option that is worth the money is the hidden stop. You will need to replace the bottom race with the one in the kit (probably a good idea to change them both out anyway if you have it apart), but looks super clean.

I ordered a set of the Ness 6 degree rake for my Fatboy Lo last week. Will be a bit before they are installed, but can take some pics for you when they come in next week.
I couldn't find my info either, so just decided to give the Ness ones a go.

The only think I'm unsure about with pro ones is they apparently don't accommodate the wheel lock, can any one verify that? Also my local speed shop deals the HHI and has them in stock. Ordering parts from US can have a lengthy wait sometimes

Yep neck lock does not work u need to also buy internal stops.
Mine came with loose pushings and had to had custom ones made for my .
3 degrees is cool but google my review on adverse effect on handling if the bike is lowered in the front.
The 0 degree is very nice and I won't go stock again.
Beware though they are definitely made in Taiwan

+1, wheel lock doesn't work, but I can count on one hand the number of times I actually used the wheel lock in the 7 years it was operational. Don't miss it at all!
