butchvoss...... just curious... what trail are you running on your front? Are you going to make new rockers? If you do, what amount of trail would you choose.

I am going to make new rockers. My trail right now is 1 1/2... I guess i will keep trail the same. I do not want to screw things up and make my steering any heaver . My Brain lets me make some stupid mistakes after my light stroke a few years back .. I now call them D.A, attacks.. short for dumbazz attack lol
[QUOTE=butchvoss;477735]Nice idea., The problem i have is fork tubes are welded to the mid brace and lower T so both would have to be bent together at same time.. ..[/QUOTE]
usually use about 3/16 wall.... never fill with sand or heat the tubing
depending on where you bend them.. if below the cross no problem... above... no reason not to the cut the brace
too bad my bender isnt smaller i will be in lincoln again this weekend

I wish i could bend them,the bend is below the brace. All Ive talked to in laconia area say no to bending them.. But i will keep checking .. The tubes are .250 wall dom
thanks
