So my belt exploded the other day after running out of gas and coming to a stop way too fast, I was thinking about taking it to the mechanic again but thought it’s better I start learning to do this stuff myself, so I took the plastics and clutch cover off and discovered that my drive belt now...

New here and am needing some help with my 2018 Polaris 570 EPS Touring. Over the weekend, my 570 started having an issue where the engine needs to be at very high RPMs for the CVT transmision to engage and move the unit. Not sure what the problem is exactly. The unit has at most 1500 miles on...

Hello everyone. I have a 2015 scrambler 1000 I just picked up and the belt (or something) is making the belt slip. Anyways I noticed it only slipped when I use full throttle. It makes this weird clunk sound almost as if the belt goes around but doesn’t catch and then catches again and slams the...

I have a 2013 Polaris sportsman 500 HO. I just put a new Polaris belt on and it's running weird :rolleyes: I know absolutely nothing about Atv's so i'm going to try my best to explain what it's doing. It starts and idles fines it goes into gear great. It will take off like normal but then it's...

Hello! I have zero experience with ATVs aside from some basic knowledge. Last ride, we had to pull out a stuck wheeler, and while doing so, my 2004 polaris Sportsman 700 got damaged. We believed it to be the belt, because it would buck forward or backwards after putting it in gear. We replaced...

So I’m at a loss I’ve been looking around and I’m trying to find out if it’s possible to upgrade to a higher clutch kit. I have 26” hooker extreme and I’m wondering if I get the EPI clutch kit for the next size up if it would negatively effect my performance while running the 26” mud tires. just...

Hey everyone, hoping I can get some help here from you guys. I've got a 2020 scrambler xp 1000 s, it's a great machine other than I've had to put 5 belts on in 900Km. It's been to the dealer numerous times for the same issue. They covered the 1st belt under warranty. But the other 4 have been...

Hey! I was wondering if anyone on here would know the solution to an issue that I'm having with my machine. The quad is a 1999 Sportsman 500 and it had a problem today. I had the throttle just about maxed in low range and was not moving. I assumed the belt was slipping because it had been left...

So I’ve been having this issue where on deceleration my belt will start to flop around and hit the top of the clutch cover. It is most noticeable right before the clutch releases and the ATV freewheels. I purchased the quad in 2015 and about mid 2016 is when I noticed it doing this. It’s done it...

Help!! I have a 2015 sportsman 570 efi. I was going to remove the primary “clutch” this morning and came to find no threads inside the clutch. Therefor being no place to thread in my clutch puller tool. i tried to insert it in anyway😂 with no luck just sips in and outside. My tool is. 3/4 fine...

I have replaced 3 one way bearings in the past 3 weeks, i inspected it some more and it seems that the belt is crooked on the clutch on the transmission. I really need some help with this any thing will help. Thanks.

Hey all. The Sportsman 570 base models come with a secondary clutch that hasn no threaded hole or pry hole to release the clutch spring. I Googled and searched Youtube, but only found info on how to remove the primary clutch in order to swap the drive belt. So, I'm sharing my video of how to...

Hey all im new to the forum and decided to make an account because i can not figure out what the issue is with my quad, and sick of the dealer giving me problems. I own a 2009 Sportsman 500 H.O....about 2 months ago while I was riding, the belt snapped on me mid trail. I have another 09...

Hey all, I bought a new to me bike last week - a 2006 Sportsman 800 X2. It has 26-inch tires on the front and back. Went for a nice trip in Southern Alberta last weekend and everything worked fine (light snow, mud / rocks). When we got home, I washed it down. Took a ton of mud and rock off the...

How do you change the belt on a 2014 Sportsman 400? Do you pull up in it and roll the secondary until it works off, or do you use the tool to open up the secondary? I'm asking because I'm about to install a clutch kit I ordered from RVS and knows I will need to remove the belt and put it back...

new to the forums, if there's already a post on this please direct me there. I have a 2005 sportsman 400. went to start it up for the first time this season and heard something wrong in the clutch housing. pulled the cover off expecting the belt to be bad but it was in perfect shape, just...

Does any have a solution for patching holes worn into the drive belt cover. The holes are on the top and bottom caused by rubbing of the main clutch. I'm thinking about flexing the plastic out with a heat gun and patching it with thin sheet metal, bent to shape, and with small bolts. Then...

I have a stock 2010 850 (72 HP). I have Black Diamond 28's on it. The stock belt worked fine until I sunk it and got it wet. I drained it and dried it out. At this point I want to replace it. I will NOT be changing the clutching, or doing anything else. My question is this: Stock OEM...

First Post... Hi all - just purchased my first Polaris (2002 Sportsman 400). It's used of course so i don't know much history about it... I've been riding it around in some tough terrain since i picked it up two weeks ago... the other night, while climbing a hill from the power lines back...

We rode this weekend and I had an issue I will explain, but the ride before that, I noticed that when I put my machine in reverse, it kind of grabbed and went without giving it any throttle. It's also seemed hard to shift. Probably two different issues. After we rode for a while, it wasn't...
