Motorcycle Repair: trees and forks, fork tubes, sportster


Question
Hi Mike, I'm thinking about adding a 5 degree raked tree to my 1993 sportster. If I also add 2" over fork tubes, will this work good?

Answer
What you need to do is install your trees. With the bike jacked up and the bottom of the bike sitting level take a measurement at the same angle that the trees are to where the axle will sit. then you will know what length forks you need to keep the bike level
Good luck and happy riding
Mike
