ok, so i have wrenched my own bikes for 20 years now , but we just recently bought a new Polaris Phoenix ( 1 Polaris I have owned ) ,, and i had some questions about the clutch !! I have done a search about this , but not found exactly what im looking for ,, or maybe i just need clarification !!! It seems to me the clutch engagement is at a really high rpm , i mean this is a 4 stroke not a 2 , and its power / torque is developed in lower rpms than a 2 stroke !! When im loading it or if i stall on a hill ,, it seems like u have to wide open throttle to get it to move , and even then it acts like it dont wanna go !!! NE advise would be appreciated !!

 

I can't really say about the Phoenix, but sounds a little on the norm side as far as what you are doing at the time it feels like its not moving. But are you wanting to put a clutch kit on it or just want to know if its normal condition? Some clutchs under a strain such as taking off on a hill will engauge at a higher rpm.

 

Just a question, but are you using low range when trying to go uphill with a load. I have a 05 SP 700efi and haven't had any problems.

 

i was just wondering if it was normal , cause it didnt make since to have all that bottom end torque wasted !! The phoenix only has F-N-R ,, no High \ Low !!! And i realise its only a 200cc bike , but i also owned a honda 200x and that thing would fly !!!! Its kinda scarw loadin it , cause i dont wanna gun it and shoot the ramps out from under the rear ,, plus i bought it fot a inexperienced rider ,and i really dont want it tippin back if she stalls it on a hill and has to rev it high to make it go !!!

 

I own a 2003 sp 700,and I dident like the lag on my 700 but after installing a clutch kit it helped it alot.Good luck
