Default Anybody else using an 800 primary on the 700

I was just wondering if anybody else was trying this mod. I know I saw a thread a few weeks back about somebody trying it. For ya'll that have tried it, is it worth the money?

The 06 700 has the same primary as the 800's and its still using the old 700 belt so I would say the 700 belt should work.

It is well worth the money if your running larger than stock tires it will take off alot faster and is alot more fun to ride with my 26" outlaw mst and i weigh 325 pounds i can spin anytime i want to with some throttle, with the stock clutch taking off in high it would bog some now it is a completely different animal, and you will have to run the 800 belt, be sure and check your belt to sheeve clearance mine was off a long ways. Any other questions feel free to ask.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Sweet, that's what I wanted to hear. How did you get the sheeve clearance corrected?

I'm runnin the 800 primary and it is awesome! Makes it much more fun to ride. You do NOT need the 800 belt, my dealer checked with Polaris and the only reason they run a different belt on the 800 is they don't want the torque of the 800 to shred the 700 belt.

My dealer removed some of the shims from behind the spyder you need to end up up at .040 belt to sheave clearance. On the 800 belt i was told from hsp that i needed to run the 800 belt to make the clutch work and the belt is alot beefier than the stock 700 belt.

What about the 800 secondary? Would it make a big difference also, or would it not be that noticeable?

You should have a team roller secondary on your machine, thats all you need.
