Anyone having belt slippage in water on AC650's?
 
I guess I will find out for myself this weekend, but am wondering, has anyone out there experienced any belt slipping while mudding or doing creek or river crossings on the AC 650's? I know that other belt driven units and makes like polaris, suzuki and the like have traditionally had problems but I wondering how my new AC 650 should perform in these types of situations.... Thanks for your feedback..

Hoffa, while riding the other day we found a nice sized creek to play in on a hot summer day! so if you can imagine we did some playing in the water. The 650 and the 500 do really well in water. The manual says not past the floorboards but it handles a might more just make sure the vent tube for the belt case is sealed good make sure the clamps are tight. I had no problems due to water or mud just reverse is geared to high and that caused my belt to slip twice while in mud and tryiung to get out so good luck
