Raked Triple Tree Interests?

[Duke]

I'm interested in purchasing another raked triple tree for one of my other Road Stars, and was wondering if anyone else was interested in one of them. I really like the way the 5 degree rake has made my bike handle.
I talked with Bill at Custom Triple Tree on cost for a set and for discounted prices if we had more than one, three, or six. He will be sending me the cost for a set along with discount prices if ording more at the same time.
Anyone looking for a set of raked trees, now would be the time to think about it.
I'll be letting you know prices as soon as I receive them.
Thanks, Duke.

Sent You a PM Need to add , I want mine plain brushed finish with clearcoat . Need it to fit all stock parts .

[brianmac]

let me know too, BTW, one set is usually close to 1K

[Duke]

When I bought one in April 2021, it cost me $1050. to my hands.

[Duke]

I'm hoping that if we have enough orders, the prices will drop enough for us to make some purchases.
Bill said that he can make them in any configuration we want, and that they do a lot of Road Star trikes. He hasn't had any feed back for the 2 wheel RS, and was glad to hear about my feed back.
I surely wouldn't be buying another set of trees if I didn't like them so well.

What size front wheel and tire are you running with the 5 degree setup? Thanks.

[Duke]

Running 21" front on the set-up now, lowered rear, smaller diameter rear tire. Shock tubes set flush.
Bike sits with front slightly higher in front.

[Duke]

Oh, I forgot to mention that the front shocks has the Progressive lowering springs and is lowered approx 2".

I got mine about two years ago it was a 7° rake and I paid $750 for but I don’t remember who I got it from.

[Duke]

I'd sure like to find one at that price.

[Ahodge75]

Duke, I might be interested.

[Duke]

I like mine so well that I ordered another one. I'll tell you there not cheap, but they are quality built and you can bolt up all of your OEM parts to them. Right now, ordering one alone is $1125. without shipping, so I hope that anyone wanting one, we could do as a group to get the best prices. Barons is not making the Road Star trees anymore, and you can't bolt all of the stock, OEM parts stright up the them.

[Duke]

I'm waiting on Bill with Custom Triple Tree to send me prices on 3, 6, and 9 trees and what the price breaks would be. As soon as I receive his quotes, I'll post it for everyone.

[Horsehammerr]

I'm READY Duke !

[Duke]

I'll get back with you soon as I talk with Bill. Thanks

Might want to check with Tom Lento Punch of Punch Designs (Florida)..he might make some

[Duke]

I'm curious LugNut, if Punch Designs has done Road Star trees, and with custom rake angles?
Custom Triple Tree can machine any angle you want and using the OEM parts. I know that they have been doing trees for over 20 years, using only quality materials, and do trees for all different brands of bikes.

[Lug Nut]

I shot him a message

[Duke]

Thanks Scott.

One of my buddies on Facebook has a used Barron's raked triple tree for a road star. I'm working on getting a price and pictures

[tapeit59]

I got mine years ago from Champion sidecars and trikes. EZ-steer I think they are called. They use all the stock parts. Add 6 degrees of rake? I'm also 4"over on the tubes.

[brianmac]

they dont USE all stock parts, yhey ALLOW use of all stock parts, that is, all thEdrillings are tapped and in the correct location so all of the OEM headLight, windshields , signals, etc BOLT RIGHT UP.

[Horsehammerr]

So far , Customtripletrees.com is the ONLY one that will even offer for Roadstar .

Thanks for the grammar lesson!

[brianmac]

Yeah can you imagine spending $1,000 on triple trees and then you find out that you got to drill and tap all the holes for all your parts that you want to attach, hell that's what you're paying the Machinist for. I was astounded to find out that they don't all do that.

[Duke]

I know, but your paying a little for that tree. CTT's knowledge of raking bikes is hard to beat, and when ordering a tree, they question what you're doing with the bike, and suggest what is needed. Safety and sadisfaction is their goal.

[Duke]

OK Guys, I received the quote from Custom Triple Tree for ordering your custom trees.

Ken, we got your call yesterday. Here is the quote for the following. Roadstar 5-degree , stock application Triple Tree, with a polished top. 3 sets, 6 sets and 10 sets plus shipping . 3 sets are $1050.00 each. 6 sets are $975.00 each. 10 sets are $925.00 each. Depending on the order amount I can determine a manufacturing time and shipping. We can ship multiple sets in one box which is more economical. thanks [email protected]

Right now ordering just one tree is $1125.00 + shipping.

Anyone interested?

[Duke]

Time to blow cop webs off of the big bills and get a order in. You know you want it!,,,!!

How did you go 4" over on your tubes ? Did you get 4" Longer Tubes or did you use Tube Extenders ?
