F3 - Upgraded Swaybar - Anyone?

[kaamacat]

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.

Just ordered the bar and end links from BajaRon... Thanks Ron! (and all)

If Lamont says the stock RT bar is an "upgrade" for the stock F3 bar....
Hmm... I better get my take off RT bar listed somewhere, make someone a good deal too !

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.

Tracking shows mine (w/end links) is arriving today! (Woo and Hoo to me)!

 

[kaamacat]

....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.

 

[kaamacat]

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).

My stock RT bar is coming off later this month in favor of a BajaRon.

If anybody wants it at a great deal, just PM me.

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%.

Ryde safe

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

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