Made an appointment to get a Laser alignment done!
Well, I called today and made an appointment for September 15th to get the laser alignment done. I was quoted $466 by one dealership and the one I ended up with quoted $150 plus parts if needed. There aren’t any dealerships in NM that perform the alignment, but I’m looking forward to the ride to Sierra Vista,AZ.

A word of caution ... last I heard ..BRP doesn't use the " Laser ' system .... so neither do Dealers .... I can't think of ANY parts they would need,( unless Tie rod/s are bent ) to correct the alignment. But that only involves adjusting the " TIE Rods. .... make sure it's a REAL Laser alignment ....

can you ride to Las Vegas, NV anytime soon? Squared Away uses the Rolo Laser system. CaptJam is his forum screen name. They travel some too, I had him do my 2015 RT in SC Spyder Rally in 2018
Dealers cost is WAY HIGH, and like BN911 says might not be the laser type. Squared Away is $150 - $200, better than dealer and you could have some breeze too!!

Wish I could make it to Vegas. This is an authorized installer per the Rolo website, so I’m hoping I’m good.

I'm glad you verified that you're getting a laser alignment. I am sorry to say that there are dealerships which promise laser alignment, but don't have the equipment. Why they can't just tell it like it is, is a sad commentary on at least a few dealerships.
Over $400.00 for an alignment, to me, means they don't want to do it. Not a good idea to go where they don't want you. Glad you've found a good option. Travel is cheaper than bad service close by.

I just had to do this, drove past 3 other dealerships to get to the one I am using now.
They had to correct issues from the dealership that had done my reframe along with the alignment, what should have been a 1-2 hour job turned into a 4 hour one and they still only charged me under $200 for the alignment.
They even gave me a new RT to try out and gave me a recommendation for breakfast while I was waiting. I have almost 6k on it since they have done the alignment and the tires still look the same as the day I took it to them.
They really nailed it good.
