Question Touring vs R1 sway bar

Anybody know if there's any difference between a Touring/base swaybar and R1?

Just wondering if there's any stiffness differences?

I don't think there is any difference. However, there is a difference from one model year to the next. As an example, the 93 rear sway bar is stiffer than the 94. I wanted to induce a little more oversteer in my 94. Putting a 93 rear bar did the trick.

Adam is right, no diff between R1 and Touring sway bars but in 94 they put a smaller rear bar on the rear.

When I was auto-xing seriously I put a bigger front bar on the car and it made a significant difference on how early the car could put the car down coming out of a corner.
