I went out and fired up the shee for the first time since I went riding Sunday, and when I pulled the clutch in to take off I noticed that it is very stiff. I'm not sure if this happened while riding or whiling power washing it afterward. I tried adjusting it on the handlebars and sprayed WD40 on everything on the motor and it is still stiff as hell. Its almost to the point that I can barely pull it in while sitting on it. Why is it so stiff? If it matters, it was muddy the last time I rode it, but I cleaned it as soon as I got home.

 

try takin the whole cable off and play around with it. who knows maby you need a new cable.

 

Every other quad i ride has a very nice and almost too easy (for me) clutch....mine is very, very, very stiff....alot stiffer than my friends raptor or my friends 400ex or my friends z400...mines like....hard...i have to use my whole hand....on theres i could use my pinky finger if i wanted to

 

If your cable is fairly new and your sure that it doesnt need replaced go to your local dealer and buy a cable luber kit. It should cost around 12 bucks and you will have enough lube to last for years.
