By contrast, three of the last sidecar installations I did before I quit my last job involved adding the raked triple tree kit. It made an amazing difference in ride and handling on all three bikes, one of which was an Ultra Classic with a double wide Hannigan chair.
I've seen that and am accumulating nickles towards that project.
