    Hi

    Is there a difference between a heritage frame and a standard frame?

    Thanks Duge

    Hi

      Maybe I should have been more specific,,

       For instance, can you put the front end of a standard Softail on a Heritage?

      Is the rake on the steering stem the same?

      Thanks Duge

    if your talking about evo ,frames are all the same 85 up apart from a few brackets oil filter mount on early ones and the wiring mounts in the frame
    below the back bone late evos don't have them rake is the same in the frame trees might be different though I have never compered

    Hi

      I have been trying to find detailed drawings of frames, no luck.  Thought the rake might have been different, for the extended forks on the standard. Or raked triple trees.  Mine is 1992.

    Thanks Doug

    Hi

       Thanks.

    So I could put a whole front end off a standard Softy on a Heritage of similar year?    Any ideah how much it would lift it? Is it 100mm longer forks?   Have you found any litrture on frame diamentions and the like?  I'e got a few on other makes, good to be able to check basic measurements.

    Any one got a complete front off a 92 (or what eva's the same) that you want to sell?
