Well I just picked up my brand new V-Force today and I love it but I have two concerns. One - when I am riding it I constantly hear the tranny whirling over the sound of the exhaust. When my friend rode it around a field I could hear the tranny running the entire time (it sounds like when you are driving your 4x4 truck or manual quad down a hill and letting it engine brake the entire way down). Is this normal or should I have it checked out?

Second question - if I am riding and apply the brakes hard, to come to a complete stop, the belt will squeak until I give the quad a little throttle. Is this because it is a brand new belt and needs to run a little before it loosens up or should I be concerned about this squeak? It does not happen when I am riding, just when I am stopped after applying the brakes farily substantially.

Thanks for any help!

 

All normal... go ride it and have fun!
