99 Sportsman Squeaking clutch.
The clutch is has about 300 miles on it. The other day I heard a squeaking sound. I pulled the cover and cleaned the drive and driven clutches. Still making that noise. Sounds like a grinding noise. Like worn brake pads on the rotor.Only happens at low rpm in forward and reverse. I checked the buttons on the driven clutch and everything looks fine. The belt is in good shape also. It runs fine. I don't have a clue here.

Does your 99 have the EBS on it?? I had the same problem on my 2002. It would creep forward at idle and make a squeaking noise. If you gave it a little gas and the bike starts to move the sound went away. On mine it turned out to be the EBS bushings that were making the noise. At idle the belt rides on the small pulley between the sheaves on the driven clutch, and off idle the belt rides up off the pulley and the noise goes away. I had my dealer change them but if you have the tools and the ability to do it yourself all the power to ya. Good luck Madcap, hope this helps, EH![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
