I put a 7/8" sway bar on my CBB for only one reason - to try to keep
both rear wheels on the ground in the fast twisty bits. Yes, but this
is racing stuff.
I can tell you that if you don't have your own teeth this sway bar will
have your dentures in your lap the first time you drive over railway
tracks! Not really comfortable - but did the job on the track (as well
as gave me wicked oversteer - more oversteer, that is).
I would suggest sticking with a lighter sway bar :-)
