LaMomster has what you need. I installed one on my 2020 RTL and it solved the problem. The reason you want his kit is because it uses the factory arm BUT with his improved roller. Read a few of the post here on this thread!

Well i will be getting one for mine as well . Not a big issue but why not make the experience always more enjoyable. There was talk they were going to put them in the 2020 rtl’s. im thinking they put them on the 2020 F3’s. look at any vehicle on the road these days and they all have belt tensioners on them because of the serpentine belts are so long and flat

Very nicely done. I was wondering how to get all this off so I could do my belt tensioner! Thanks a bunch!!!

After watching the video by Lamonster on the OEM tensioner, I upgraded to his tensioner assembly. Fit and finish is fantastic. Taking my time start to finish including installing his handlebar riser I had 2hrs labor in. It might be me but after riding at various speeds it feels smoother vs the OEM.

Make sure you keep a eye on the bearings in the little wheel!! Make it one of those things that you look at when you change your oil!! Loosing a drive belt because of a $2 bearing would suck!!
