Motorcycle Repair: front end, triple trees, protractor

Question
Hi Mike thanks for your time i have a 1998 dyna guide looking to extend front end  out i'm told i can get adjustable triple trees?
was told i can change my forks? looking to extend about 3-4 inches.any suggestions?

Answer
you are going to need to do some calculating. You can get triple trees that have added rake up to 5 degrees. If you extend your front end you will have to lengthen the forks to keep the bike level. When doing a project like this I use a protractor and a length of string to see where the front end will fall.
Good luck and happy riding
Mike
