Product Description
We stepped up our game at Lamonster Garage® and made a belt tensioner worthy of our Lamonster Garage® and IPS™ brand name.
We started with our signature twin bearing roller with oversized sealed bearings and roller to reduce roller rpm. This is the same roller we used on the oem tensioner that we've been selling for the last 3 years. We have thousands of these upgraded rollers in service with great user feedback. We see no reason to change something that works so well. This roller is still available as a replacement wear item just like brake pads. These should last 15000 to 20000 miles before needing replacement. We have customers with many more miles than that without replacement but it's a good idea to inspect the tensioner and roller at every tire change.
The torsion arm has been replaced with an anodized billet aluminum arm with twin bearings at the pivot point as opposed to a plastic arm with a bushing at the pivot point. This is a little overkill on our part but it's just as easy to make it bulletproof when you're starting from scratch. We also added a third mounting hole to allow the same part to work on the F3 and the RT. The holes are now slotted for easy of alignment when installing. A spacer will be provided for the RT and F3. This spacer goes under the bracket to allow of clearance of the frame member on the RT. The RT uses the center hole and the whole to the left of center and the F3 uses the center hole and the hole right of center (next to the pivot arm)and the spacer goes on top of the bracket on the F3.

Lamonster Belt Tensioner
This is a well made piece of hardware that does exactly what it says. It dampens belt vibrations much better than the stock piece and is much more durable by design. It is an idler, NOT a tensioner. Tensioners are used on the slack side of belt drives and are MUCH more substantial. BRP correctly calls it an idler. The Lamonster idler does a much better job of dampening the belt vibrations than the stock piece by virtue of its massive roller and control arm. As info, the spring is identical to stock. You need this piece whether you know it or not. It is a bargain for the construction and effect.

Works as advertised
My bike no longer vibrates when at high speeds or at lower RPM's. This was a super easy install and I am really glad I did it. Yes, my last name is Lamont, but I am not affiliated with Lamonster besides buying their stuff.

IPS belt tensioner
Simply put. The quality of this piece is significantly better than the OEM from BRP. OEM piece lasted 3,000 miles/ish. Plastic roller seized and disintegrated. Although I have only 1,000 miles on the Lamonster part it is clearly a better built part. Comes with everything you need for installation other than a cold beer or two .

Belt tensioner
For the most part a very easy install. Trying to hold the part in place and start the bolt almost requires a third hand. Putting a medium size screwdriver in one hole makes the install go much easier.
