(And yes, even though the Diameters are close to stock, the increased bar rate comes from a thicker wall of the hollow bar design..)
Thanks Modshack. This reinforces what I am looking for on my Z. I don't track it, and intend to keep the stock springs and shocks as well......... additional roll control and better cornering spring rate while maintaining a little more neutral balance than stock sounds great.
