Today I went out and rode my Predator for the first time since I purchased it. After I rode it for a good little while and got it good and warmed up, I stopped it and tried to get it into neutral. But the gears seemed real stiff (it actually feels like it's stuck until I pushed up on it really, really hard) like it didn't want to go up into neutral. Then, finally it went up, but skipped neutral and went straight into second gear. After I turned it off and just had the AC on, it went into neutral easily. After I let it rest for an hour or so, I started it back up and it went into neutral easily. After it's warmed up for awhile though, it seems real stiff to get back into neutral. Is this normal or do I need to adjust the clutch? It doesn't seem normal to me! Other than that, it runs real strong. Thanks.

 

The machine has a real close tolerance trans. Give it some time, and it'll loosen up. I used to do the same thing you're doing. Have fun!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

loosens up after a while. run motul 5w-30 oil. new and really helps a lot. will not hhurt the engine. the gears need oil relief holes in them. the polaris oil is too thick. run the motul and this will help the problem

 

how do you like the air force kit?

I knew the Pred had a lot of inovations, but A/C?? Wow it's too cold for AC where I live[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
