2013 Stabilizer Bar Link Rods (FYI)

[AutumnCat]

When I mentioned the stabilizer links to my service tech - he said "oh, did you find that on the internet"? He also said it does NOT apply to the 2013 ST model.
True or not?

Where is the BRP notice that I can show him?

Tell him to look up 2013-6 service bulletin . I think that covers it ?

[AutumnCat]

I cut to the chase - I called BRP directly. According to the rep - it could apply to the the ST-L...but, he was able to look at my VIN and tell me my bike has no recall or bulletin associated with it.

So - this IS VIN specific.

Very nice rep and the wait time on the phone was minimal.

No panels need to be removed but you will need to raise your Spyder's front end and crawl under it to see the links. Search for other posts on this subject and there should be some posts with pictures that show the location of the sway bar links.

I don't have the equipment to raise mine. I used my cell phone with the flash. Stuck my arm underneath and started clicking, every which way, until I had a photo of the joint where I could see the CVCC number . . . unfortunately, it is a 4 and there is no dot of paint.
