Springer Front end and rake Empty
PostSubject: Springer Front end and rake   Springer Front end and rake EmptyFri Jun 17, 2011 5:29 pm

Need some advice for switching to springer forks and increasing the rake.

Been looking on ebay for some and they're at good prices vs our dollar so no better time to buy!

Just wanna ask a few questions for anyone thats done one, and whats the best way to it all at once. All I know is I have to buy a springer end that'll match the neck stem and use a good welder for choppin the front!

Custom front ends are new to me so I dont know sh8t!

Any advice is welcomed
