HELP!! I've got a 2003 Sportsman 700. after I put about 3,000 miles on it, I broke the first belt. Since then (now at 4,100 miles), I've trashed 3 belts. Something that is happening now, with a new belt installed is that it is almost always is engaged..I mean, if I start it in gear, it is off and running...even at idle. I actually have to shut if off to shift gears! Is there something in specific that I should be looking at on the Primary, and/or the Secondary clutch? Any suggestions will be most appreciated! Thanks, Mike-Utah.

 

mike chances are the one way ebs bushing is bad which will make it creep or take off in gear as described. you might be able to put shimms in the secondary but most likely its a trip to someone who has a spider tool(dealer) to replace the ebs bushing.
