WTB (or trade) K-Model 52-53 Tree #45707-52

Hi Everyone

I'm new here (my first post), a person from eBay recommended I post here (so thanks again to "sportsterpaul" no idea if his username is the same here).

I am looking to trade or buy a K-Model 52-53 Tree #45707-52 (the raked tree). Looking for the lower tree I already found the upper tree. I have numerous later model trees to trade if anyone looking to do a swap?

I recently bought a #45707-52A (tree without stem) to modify machine/weld to make a raked tree if I can't find anything.

Cheers!

Hi and Welcome
I have an extra if no one else is eager to sell one. What are you building and do you need additional parts? Lately I've been thinking it's silly to hang onto these parts that are not earmarked for a project.

Hi Again
Since your building a racer do you require the bottom tree to be unmolested? Often times people cut off the bottom "ears" that hold the cowbells/gators. Often times these trees got chromed. One with the ears off or chromed should sell very cheap. One in good shape I would think more in the $100 range plus shipping. Let the group know your requiements for this part, i'm sure somebody has a modified one. If not I'd trade you for a -52A lower tree with stem.

hi jerry

i would prefer a unmolested one but would take anything (prefer unchromed). which do you have for swap? I can take a few photos of the 52A's i have and you could pick one if you are interested (I have ones with stems too but need to double check).

Cheers

Hi
I have an unmolested one you could have. Just to make sure you're aware the -52 "raked" lower tree has to be used with the early top tree. Do you have an early top tree? PM me an address and I'll ship you a lower tree. It probably will be a few days until I can get around to shipping it to you.
