Does the beefier stabilizer bar enhance the cornering stability of the 2011 Apex SE's? My recently purchased 2011 corners pretty well but occassionally trys to high side me. If this upgrade works for the 2011, who sells them?
I did the upgrade to my 2007 Apex GT and it worked wonders.
Thanks for your input

Put one on my '13 xtx, I like it. Pioneer performance sells them. They're in NY.

So I'm bumping this thread because of pioneers sale they got going on. Does the 13mm help on a 2011 xtx? Thinking about ordering one but not sure if it's a waste of money.

I just ordered 1 from pioneer they have on sale for $49. Regular $99. Anytime you go heavier sway bar it always helps.Does the beefier stabilizer bar enhance the cornering stability of the 2011 Apex SE's?

So I know the functionality of the sway bar but does that small of a difference (11.5 I believe is stock on 2011s) to a 13 make a big difference? Also is there any obvious weight differences? If it's an extra 5 pounds that's a lot to add but if it's 3 ounces not concerned obviously.

HA, I love it when everybody worries about 2/3 lbs, ,I'll take a couple lbs to not end up rolled over on a curve against a TREE. How about rider just loose 2lbs for the sake of SAFETYSo I know the functionality of the sway bar but does that small of a difference (11.5 I believe is stock on 2011s) to a 13 make a big difference?

Like I said I'm not worried if it's not a huge increase however I don't want to add another 15 lbs to the sled. Oddly enough though somehow I've managed to avoid all the trees so far in life.
So back to the original question does it make a noticeable difference.

I put one in my 2012 xtx and it is not hardly any heavier at all would need a scale to tell. has it made a big difference well im not sure. I did new shocks snowtrackers and the sway bar all at the same time and it railed so hard that the inside ski would not stay planted so i lowered the front end and it was stii tipping so i put the stock shocks back on and it was better but now I dont remember how it was stock so with out putting the stock one back in id have to say its not that big of a deal. then again my buddy has an 11 xtx and says mine holds a cornner better he has snow trackers as well but stock sway bar.
