I have a 2000 Scrambler with mods in my signature but it is not clutched at all. I don't have any clue as to what springs or weights I should need. But being piped, jetted, reeds, and higher compression I know I must need to clutch it to get the best performance and not wear out my belt or CVT. Please help with any suggestions...thanx

 

Hate to tell you but I dought you will find anyone on here that can clutch to that DG pipe.
Ditch that pipe and go with a brand that specializes in CVT machine like RcR,HPD,Aaen,Dynoport,Hotseat or even CPI
But stay away from DG and FMF on Polaris atvs.

 

Yea I had heard that before I bought it and only bought because he said it was HPD but long story short when it came in the mail it was DG. My plan was to ditch that and my current silencer and get a stage 1 kit from RCR but I need to stay legal, <96Db and USFS approved and right now in the middle of jobs hard to find extra cash. But do you think that just ditching that pipe and getting an RCR will add more power because he knows more? Also the clutching really makes a big difference doesn't it with speed and stuff. Because I can't even wheelie while driving unless I really pin it and like jump on the back or hit a little bump then it'll come up. I know it should do them while I'm on the seat but it doesn't.

 

I have a few things done to my sport. Although i don't know the exact clutch setup on it, I would conclude my 400 doesn't like to pull the front end up from a roll very much at all. But from a dead stop i can sit on the handle bars and it'll pack the front end about 10 inches on asphault [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

If noise is a problem get on ebay find you a GOOD pipe and stock silencer.Then look for the right springs and weights for the pipe.
To make a 2stroke Polaris run good you need the clutching to get the rpms into the power range of the pipe.

 

With my hot seat pipe there was a huge difference from the factory silencer to the supertrapp silencer! My supertrapp is USFS approved. But i doubt it meets <96db rating! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

I still have the stock silencer so thats not a problem but how much power do I lose still using the stock one I know the majority of power comes from the pipe but the silencer has to do something. I did just miss out on ebay on the HPD USFS approved 93Db muffler I'm hoping another one comes around because thats perfect for me. But I have run mine with the stock silencer but it doesn't fit at all. In fact the aftermarket one doesn't even match up the the mounts I have it upside down. This DG pipe I have sux. As for clutching does it even hit the right rpms now just delayed or can the stock clutching not go high enough? I'm not exactly sure what clutching does, I know it moves it to the right range but up or down or what?

 

The stock silencer wont cut your power that much but will add a few pounds.
The clutching concept in very in depth but to put it as simple as I can .You have to get into and stay in the power range of the pipe to make power.
With certain pipes this is done by increasing to engagment rpm with a stiff primary spring and a higher rated primary for more rpms.This also effects the secondary which mainly senses the tourque and compensates by letting the belt go down in the sheeves.your weights help control the engagment and engine rpms.
So what you have to remember is everything effects everything else.This is why you NEED to know what rpm range the pipe opperates at to dial it all in with a tach.

 

Ok that actually helps a bit, I think once I get my paycheck I'm dumping the DG and calling up rick cuz he'll set me up with the right clutching too.
