Do you think that I should have problems with the ramp buttons and ramp at 2500 miles? How difficult are these parts to change out? Do I need any special tools? I'm kinda new to clutches on atv, so forgive me if I'm a bit clueless. I will check the motor mount in the morning. Thanks

All depends on how it's been driven. If you used low range when necessary,didn't lug the engine or clutches down,then possibly the belt was the problem. Just see how it runs with the new one.The rear clutch isn't that hard,just need a big pair of circlip pliers to remove the snap ring. When you remove it and raise the helix the clutch spring will unwind.If in doubt the manual shows you how to replace them and rewinding the clutch,spring settings or you can just pull the clutch off and have a dealer replace the ramp buttons if needed.Most times they can do it about 15 minutes or so.
