Looking 4 help with my rake on my VW trike build
[QUOTE=DeathBySnuSnu;410376]Geometry.....
Whether you put a kit on a wing or hand build a big ole v8 you must have certain things right.
Rake and trail.
Just like a motocycle but in trike form typically a lot less trail.
Rake....not no big deal. Make it what you want it to look like. You may effect turning radius but drivability will be ok.
Trail....the big deal. No matter what rake angle you choose the trail must be right. Typically around 2 inches or even less.

I have a 97 or 98 Harley FLH front forks & tire assembly
from a heritage softail fatboy, is what I was told anyway, there are no markings on either TTree that I can tell.....
does seem to have a slight angle difference to the neck shaft.
I have to have a new neck tube welded on to the trikes frame to work with this front end & i'm needing help figuring out the correct angle to have it welded at.... can you give me any help in what I need, & what I need to do to make this front assembly work on my vw trike?
