    Default F3 - Upgraded Swaybar - Anyone?

    Has anyone put any form of improved sway on their F3/F3S? (I'd be curious as to feedback as-well)

    I had the BajaRon sway bar put on my F3 when I bought it along with the upgraded Fox shocks all around. Can't say how much it improved things since I didn't ride it before but will say it is a cornering beast. I am hitting corners now at speeds I never dreamed of taking on my RS without even thinking about it. My wife even noticed how much better the F3 handles and thats from a passenger standpoint.

    I put a take off RT bar on my F3. We have two F3's and the difference is noticeable and a very cheap upgrade.

    So was the "take off" a stock RT bar that was upgraded to Bajaron bar?
    Is a stock RT bar beefier than a stock F3s bar?

    It's a stock RT bar, and yes it is beefier.

    Does an upgraded bar affect the overall ride? I understand the cornering will be enhanced, I want to know if the ride is noticeably stiffer. Thanks

    A sway bar has little effect other than cornering.

    ....and it is here! (BTW. Extremely well packaged with what looks to be a great set of instructions for those
    not very mechanical). Nicely done.

    All done. I will post-up later on the items done. (Overall very easy to do, but, you REALLY need
    a good jack because that baby is coming up 22-23" in the front to remove the bar... and every bit
    of safety in the form of something under the wheels is recommended. I used two sets of ramps stacked
    to place under the wheels (my old 12" wide solid wood plus my new Raceramps).

    I had the BajaRon sway bar put on a while back. There is a MARKED improvement in cornering, especially 2 up. I would recommend it 100%.

    So, is the RT bar more effective than Bajhron?
    what about the links?
    sorry for my confusion

    Sounded like BajaRon > RT > F3 OEM (If you had a micrometer, measure the diameter of all three. It does not take much)
