CycleOne Manufacturing Raked Trees
« on: March 12, 2011, 01:39:29 PM »
Has anyone tried these raked triple trees? Raked 5 degrees. I have a K8 and was looking for feedback or pictures of these trees in action.

Thanks!

never seen that done before kinda cool. curious if this is a bad idea or not or if actually raking the frame would be better.

BAD idea. Do the calcs, as they reduce trail rather significantly. They're typically used on an already raked neck to reduce the trail a bit to make them manageable.
