    Default Are there any CanAm owners in Ct who can install sway bars?

    If there are any Connecticut Cam Am owners who can install a sway bar in an RT, plus some power ports, and who knows, maybe shocks, I live in Eastern Ct and I’m willing to travel and compensate who ever can do this work. Please drop me a PM or email at jdct45@yahoo.com . I own a 2022 Sea to Sky RT.

    Thanks and happy trails to all.

    With Ron's new THREE piece bar all you need to do is cut the OEM in half to remove it ...... the likely hood that you will find someone to buy your old is nil ..... JMHO .... Mike

    Derick installs A LOT of sway bars. Tires, too. Laser alignments. He goes to a lot of motorcycle events as a vendor, so he travels a lot. His shop is not far from Arctic Adventures. a really great small dealer. Kind of out of the way, a long ride, but a nice ride nonetheless. And you are dead right about Connecticut dealers. Once Gargano's in East Haven, where I bought my 2013 RTL closed their doors - a sad day indeed - I would take the ride to AA for service. Bob Gargano Jr. was wrenching on his own for awhile, but I think he is out of the business now.

    Be very careful doing this, one slip and it could cost you.

    We don't recommend cutting the bar on the Spyder because there isn't a lot of room to work. Some have done it with success. But as K80Shooter says, a mistake can be costly. At the very least, be careful if you go this route. I will say, it does eliminate having to raise the bike up high.
