Default Help me!! Raptor is having problems

My raptors 2nd gear feels like it is starting to slip. I stopped riding it asap. I do not know if its ok to keep riding it untill it gets worse or if that will cost me more money. I would like to know if this is a common thing, if it is easy to fix, how much it costs in parts. Would I have to replace the whole tranny or just the gear? Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

What year is it? If it is not an 01 it could just be your clutches.

I was at the Coral Pink Dunes when mine started to feel the same way. When I got looking I found that the front sprocket had worn down to nothing giving that slipping tranny feel. I found out that due to the tork and horsepower the 660 has that it tears up the front sporcket if you ride it hard. Just something ealse to look at. Good Luck

If it has a square tubing subframe and remote rez rear shock its an 01. Otherwise I believe its the 10 digit of the vin will tell you the year
