chopper forks question

[Speed2XS]

Im not familiar at all with the chopper forks out there. My question is, is it easy to make the fork legs shorter on chopper forks? For instance, if I purchased 30" forks, could they be shortened to 25"?

Thanks in advance.

If the fork tubes clamp into the triple-tree,you should be able to slide them upward 5".

You can remove the legs and cut them down on most of them. I used a large tubing cutter on the legs of a bike I did for a build off on here.

Just remember to measure twice and cut once.

Thanks guys for the info. If I go this route I will certainly be chopping them to the closest tolerance possible, but now the electra springer front end is lookin pretty good too....
