Team "no rear sway" here. Ditch the Ohlins DFV's and go 3-way. It won't completely stop the roll, but it will control how you get there.

Correct. Dampers can only slow the roll rate, but not eliminated it.

Oh my...... you..... bastard. That looks like some incredible stuff.

I get it, stiffer dampening increases roll resistance. What about progressive springs? I had H&R on the stock shocks before the Ohlins DFV's that were progressive... but had no claimed rating. Of the lengths are similar, I might give these a try on the Ohlins. Or am I nuts? (Or cheap... whatever).
