fOR ALL THE GUYS OUT THERE WONDERING IF THE 13 MM SWAY BAR IS WOTH IT ....YES IT IS !!!! IM BACK TO RIDING MY VIPER AND I LOVE IT !!! SKIS NEVER LEAVE THE GROUND IN THE CORNERS !!!! JUST TO LET YOU KNOW HOW WELL IT WORKS , I BENT MY TRANSFER BAR IN HALF , I PULLED OFF THE TRANSFER ROD AND TRAIL RODE OVER 400 MILES LAST WEEK WITH NO PROBLEMS , NO SKI LIFT EVEN WITH NO TRANSFER BAR ... AND LET ME TELL YOU IF YOUR LOOKING FOR SOME FUN , PULL YOUR TRANSFER BAR AND ENJOY THE WHEELIES AT 60 + MPH . IN MY OPION AND IM A GUY THAT LIKE TO STICK IT IN THE CORNERS THE 13 MM SWAY BAR IS A MUST HAVE ON THESE NEW SLEDS !!!!!
 

i just tested one on my attak. no ill effects like some have reported. i also tried the 12mm. both are better than stock, but the 13mm corners noticeably flatter. i dont feel it was any less stabil in the rough either. no numb hands, no bucking back and forth, skis lose traction before the inside ski lifts. 13mm all the way!
 
i ordered set a monday hopefully i get them before the weekend, i have yet to get an email back from them though hopefully they got the order

I road an Attack last year with the 13mm and hated it. My arms and hands where numb from all the feedback.
there must have been something else causing it. i originally got the 12mm because i heard about that. now with the 13mm i dont see any downsides. on uneven bumps its as stabil as stock.
 
MightyAttack road the same sled and he made the same comments. They where both running the GT front shocks on there attacks so they were identical. I had the stock fronts.

I'm not saying it couldn't have been fixed with playing with the shocks but it wasn't good the way it was setup.

My brother had a 13mm on his 04 RX-1 but he had Ohlins up front and it didn't have the feed back that this attack did

I think what he means is that his Attak/Apex tracks more like his old Viper did.
 
VIPER VS. APEX

THANKS GRIMM , YES THATS WHAT I MEAN , MY 06 APEX NOW STAYS FLAT LIKE THE VIPER DID .. AS FAR AS THE FRONT BEING HARSH OR RUFF I DID NOT THINK IT HAD ANY EFFECTS ON THE RIDE IN THE FRONT , BUT I DID TURN THE SHOCKS TO THE MAX SOFT SETTING PER THE BOOK BEFORE I RODE IT . HANDS DOWN A MUST HAVE FOR YOUR GUY THAT LIKES TO RIDE HARD AND KEEP BOTH SKIS ON THE GROUND , BUT HEY ALOT OF THE DOO BOYS ARE USED TO IT , BUT I HAVE ONLY RIDDEN YAMMY THIS IS MY 4TH ONE AND I LOVE BOTH SKIS ON THE GROUND IN THE CORNERS .. PEACE

where the best place to get 13mm sway bar going to get one asap thanks rtx99 :Rockon:

I got the one that's in my RX-1 from Pioneer Performance

www.pioneerperformance.net

The '07's have a little wider stance which is why I haven't put the 13mm in yet.
 
Yes the shocks make a big differance with the 13mm bar,i had an attak last year w/the 13mm and stock shocks turned to stock setting,and i did notice some vibration and stiffness in the handlebars,than i put the fox floats on set at 50 lbs and 13mm what a differance!!
