First Ride: Revel Rascal V2
I think it's a sum of all ingredients. Usually the rule is that the stem shouldn't be longer than the offset. Riser bars do create a longer virtual stem length. I think offset affects how the wheel "carves" into the ground. Stem length and bar specs are deff. more directly related to how quick your steering feels...I've tried both and the both have plus and minuses....one might be better but there are so many variables at play...Too many people out there use a stem as a reach adjustment when it is more of a handling adjustment.
Also, if my memory serves me right, BOXXER and 40's have always been 51mm so that's probably why Matt pointed this out. Around 5mm of extra wheelbase is noticeable if you're an experienced rider...especially when it changes the 'dig curve' of the front tire while turning...
