Well it mattered......to me.
I have no problems at all and Im half crippled.
So I asked a simple question.
In searching here and other forums all the guys say is to get the thing raked and life is a bowl of cherries.

I asked because I dont have any problems and would like to know if it was or not.
Saving me a grand for now...........if I chose to have it done at some future point when or if its needed.

Sorry, my comment was not meant to offend you. I was more noting that I don't know if mine is raked or not, but having no problem with it, I don't worry about it. So again, I apologize for not being clear. No offense intended.
 
This has been said, but if a GL 1800 has not been raked, it steers like trying to corrall a water buffalo. If it has been raked even 4.5 it steers very easy. Seriously, if you can't tell ask a friend that has been riding a trike to try to steer it.

There is a tremendous difference in the steering between a non-raked trike and a raked one.
 
Folks my bike is indeed raked.
I saw a GW in the parking lot of my local dealer today and its quite obvious when one sees a stock GW.

Im not offended by anyone here. I dont get offended I get angry...........it goes away fast.

Yes.
Please consider this a closed thread and thanks for all the replies.
