Lol I jump mine. It's fun. Railroad crossings on gravel roads are raised. Perfect jumps. 60-70 mph and get air. It's awesome.
My tbars are almost maxed. I notice no difference in ride stiffness.aybe that's due to running less air in the new tires vs my old 31's

Yeah idk why everyone says it gets super stiff, maybe it's all in their head. Mine still feels super floaty in deep bumps at speed. At slow speeds it's rough over anything. It's a truck.

Re: FRF Watercooler / BS Thread VIII
I cranked mine. It was to high in the front anyhow, but rode stiff as shit. I have them so the tops of the actual key are flush with the opening. Made it level and rides good.

Maybe you have the stiffer bars. There's a few different stiffnesses.
