I recently ordered a 2017 Triton 189 trx... I added a Minn Kota Fortrex 80 24V system. Does the Minn Kota come with the bow mount stabilizer bar as standard equipment, or do you need to order that as a separate accessory?

Separate
I think just the 36volt does.atleast that's how it was 3 years ago
Yes it comes with stabilizer
My 112 came with it, but my 80 did not. The 80 I put on my champ in 14 so they may come with them now. My ranger came with the 112 and it was included.
No only on the 112
I called Minn Kota. It does not. I ordered one on Amazon for $39. Thanks everyone for the answers!
Pardon my ignorance but what advantage does it have and what does it prevent?
I have a fortrex 80

I called them last year when the one I bought did not have one in the box. MK said "their" engineers stated that the 45 inch shaft 80 lb Fortex...does not need a stabilizer. I tols them to send one of the more educated engineers down here, and I can prove them wrong rally quick. I bought one also. BS.

It is an aluminum pipe that screws in the threaded part near the head of the troll motor...and when motor is stowed....the pipe rest on the floor of the boat...helping to support the end of the troll motor when in heavy seas. Most folks used to just make them themselves.
