    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    The last thing long travel is going to do is add stability while on road. @Highwama85 as everyone has said. Spacers are not going to increase the FEELING of stability. They may literally spread your footprint and improve in ACTUAL stability due to a high center of gravity + lift. But remember you're talking minor changes to a very high center of gravity pushed up a bit more.

    Long travel does add stability. I have it. Id know. It makes the over all track width 7" wider. The shocks are at a different angle changin the ratio and improving stability.

    His biggest problem for feeling tippy is the lumber rack. Id also know having had a very high bed rack and roof rack and now very low one.
