Got a couple new parts for my second 700XX about a week ago. Teixeira Tech +2 stem, 1 1/8" bar clamp, and upper replacement a-arms. Attached a couple of pics below. The chrome on the stem is not for show, although it does look good. At the beginning of summer, I tried a chromed stem on my race 450R. I was amazed at how much the steering effort was reduced due to the smooth finish of the chrome at the bushing area. I actually had to add a couple of clicks to my steering dampner! Plus the chrome is much harder, don't have to worry about the bushing wearing into the stem. Yes, the chrome is more expensive, but well worth it in my opinion.
No installed pics yet, I ordered a 9/16" sway bar a week or so ago, just waiting for it to get here. (Currently on backorder, no set date yet for delivery.) Want to do a comparison of the sway bar vs. a-arms, so don't want to swap the arms yet untill I can try the sway bar with the stock arms. Once I do get the bar, will for sure post my thoughts on both in the product review section. Will also post a few installed pics in this thread once I get everything bolted up.
