Arlen ness has a new rake bolt on kit and so does kewlmetal. If I remember right some where around $2299.00

Will work on street glides.....

Paul Yaffee also sells a stretched fairing for $800.00 so does sinister choppers.

Thanx for the link. Never though there was a bolt on kit. Thought cut and weld was only option. Im going to a local harley machine shop this week. they did a Road King a while back, wasnt a bolt on kit.

The new bolt ons give you 45 degree rake. I would do that, instead of hacking up my bike.

Yaffe and several others have stuff for it. That's kind of his thing.

I saw this raked bagger this weekend at R.O.T. in Austin, Texas. I looked at it closely and it was a very clean weld job. I don't know how much the rake was changed, but it was stretched out pretty good.

put together one of these rake kits , a 23" front wheel and the kit that lowers the seat by 3" and you'd have one hell of a custom bagger

The bike in Austin has nine degrees in trees and nine in the neck , out three . Did myself But Paul Yaffie sells a kit and most all the parts you'll need , but it's not all that easy you will need to put alot of thought into the way you want your bike to look , and cut and stretch your faring , fender is by BeCool fenders , wheels are out there but 24 & 26 spoke wheels will have to be made , I used Black Bike Wheels and yes they do rock . If you need Adam at Tradation cycles in FtWorth Texas can help with any Info or parts

Glad you could join us on the forum. The bike looked really good, very nicely done. I could not tell it was not stock (actually the welds look even better than some of the OEM welds on my bike).
