    Default Upgrade tension belt roller and bracket

    I was watching a vid on how to put on the harness for a trailer & on this video the guys had said (i think) that the can am spyder 2020 doesn't have a belt tensioner on them.
    Does anyone know anything about this?

    No Spyder comes from the factory with a belt tensioner; these are after market add ons. Had one on my 2014 RS-M, don't feel the need for one on my 2018 F3-T. My experience for WIW.

    My 2020 RT-L did not come with one, if you do get one make sure it's a Lamonster Tensioner. You can get it from his site or several others as well.

    A few have stated that their new (late) 2021s came with a belt tensioner. I was at the dealer a week or 2 ago and looked under a couple brand new lates and didn't see a belt tensioner. The assembler also stated the only ones he's seen w/factory belt tensioners were the S2S's. I noted previously (and still believe) any non-S2S RTs that are purchased with a belt tensioner installed were installed by the dealer (just like some dealers install a battery tender and pigtails).

    My 2021 RTL (Built January 2021) came from the factory with the belt tensioner . It was not installed by the dealer.
