Default Polaris 50cc predator (2004) loss of power

Hey all. First post here. I have a 2004 polaris 50cc predator. Starts fine, but recently has had little power off the line. Sounds like the engine is revving fine, but there is little power to the rear. Tried draining tranny oil and refilling though it doesn't seem to want to take much. This is a new problem. Anyone know what might be going on? Would greatly appreciate any info on this one!

Greetings! Have you checked the CVT belt? if the engine is revving fine, but not giving much power, it could be that your belt is worn down to where it slips.
