Genuine Springer Front End on 2013 Fatboy

    G'day,

    Just looking into putting a genuine Springer front end on my 2013 Fatboy.

    I looked into it at the Fatboy has a 31 degree steering head rake and as far as i could tell all H-D's Springer models had a 32 degree steering head rake except for the Crossbones which had 32.5 degrees.

    What I'm trying to find out is whether the 1 degree difference in the rake will have a dramatic effect on the way the suspension functions and whether it will have a dramatic effect on the handling.

    Springer is off a Badboy.


    Cheers.
