Default Sportsman 600 Problem

While coming out of a corner or even from a stop I'm feeling some type of slipping. The engine revs up but doesnt seem to move or accelerate like it should. When I let off the throttle and let the engine come down it usually goes back to normal. I checked my belt and its not fraying or coming apart at all. Any suggestion? Just to let you know I haven't made any mods to the clutch and havent really done anything with it since I bought it in early 04.

If you haven't done anything to the belt since early 04 i would reccomend a new belt and maybe servicing the clutches, i try to do that at least yearly on sleds and my bike

you may have an allignment problem between your engine and tranny, check all your mounting bolts for both. I had a broken motor mount bolt on mine early on, not from abuse but from a defective bolt. good luck.
