I think senstive to car adjustments can only be gauged by the driver. I feel stuff alot differant then you may or may not. so saying STB has no effect. Maybe to you or joe blow, but to some it can.

I can feel the slights things with my car. good or bad. But then again I could tell you which fork leg would have more rebound or compression then the other on the road bike. Or the fact that the frame has to much flex under loading.

No worries... Just figured I'd add that.

UPDATE: Well I took the plunge and bought a WRX trunk with small wing.
Whadaya think?

I personally miss the big wing but love the new jdm badges on the wrx trunk.

I haven't noticed a difference in handling, I took one of my favorite junctions at a high speed and the car felt the same, so thats good.

Hopefully this keeps the fuzz off my back!!!
