RSB Adjustments ???

Hey hey guys... Been seaching the forum on the best adjustments for the RSB. My goal is to get the rear end tight as possible. I've notice the holes on either side of the bar and at the moment my clamps are using the two inner holes. The RSB is positioned directly below the rear axle. I'm assuming this is the best balance.
My question is, what would the rear end charateristics be like if the RSB was adjusted behind the rear axle or directly in front of the rear axle??? Would there be noticeble differnce?? I'm thinking on setting the RSB rear of the axle??? Feedback would be great.
Thanks.

I don't have one but as I understand moving it to the rear of the axle would make it less stiff while moving to the front more stiff. I can't tell you how it would handle cause I don't have one.

I moved mine about 1 inch behind the rear axle. Right under proved too spooky for me. You really gotta pay attention in the snow/rain with that setup.

Well. I will try both setups. I wanted an easier way of doing the testing without having the pull down the back end twice..

Yeah.. it's a pain adjusting it.

If you put it right under the axle it's gonna be very stiff. Make sure you check the handling out in the rain before you settle on it...
