There will be an 1143 spinning rod available soon, though I don't think we'll see an 1142. As for counter balancing the rods that is still being discussed. Here's where we're at as of last night:
STR1262.....10 1/2 foot, 6-10lbs line
STR1321.....11 foot, 4-10lbs line
STR1363.....11'4", 6-12lbs line
STR1445.....12 foot, 8-17lbs line
