i have a 2000 ds 650. i have no manual and there are no bombardier dealers in my area at all. i was wondering what weight oil it uses and i also might need to replace the clutch and was wondering if anyone knew of a good company to get one from. just a stock grade one, not looking for a high performance one. any info would be helpful. thanks

 

I now run that valvoline 4 stroke oil from auto zone. They offer 10w40 and 20w50. I use the 10w40 in the colder months and 20w50 in the warmer months. As far as a clutch goes, is it ***** out or just slippin a bit. Because if it is just slippin a bit you can install stiffer springs and whalla its as good as new. This is a ds issue and very common. I used the ron woods 60% stiffer than stock springs because my clutch would slip a little when i got it, it only seemed to slip when i was on the throttle hard and shifting to next gear. Do a shearch on clutch springs and you will find all the info needed. A clutch or spring change is very simple and you can do the clutch spring change for around $30 i think.
By the way if your gonna do a complete clutch change I would say use the barnett kit. Good luck and if you need anything else just ask. RUSS

 

i am going to take your advice and try the ron woods springs. sounds just like what mine was doing. thanks for all the helpful info
