Looped the bike a couple weeks ago, so when I had the bars off to straighten everything up at home, decided to flip the bar mounts around. Also rotated the bars (Tag X-5 Mini) forward just a bit. The total movement was maybe a total of an inch up and forward.
Had I only known before how much a difference that little change can make, I would have done it long ago. I felt much more comfortable right away. I expected the big change to be noticed in turning, but where I really noticed it was in stability over rocks & limbs. The bike didn't seem to do the KDX dance as much as before, and just seemed to track better.
Just thought I'd share that with the KDX room. If you haven't experimented with different bar positions, you should as it can be worth it.
