Default honda foreman 500 trans help

I just got a 2001 honda foreman 500 4x4 low miles starts and runs great but when it's revved up in any gear even neutral there's a whining noise and doesn't move. I can put it in drive low and reverse it acts like it engages but won't move. Help please

That's a Honda Rubicon, I looked the model number up. I thought that's what it was when you said drive, low and reverse as those would be exclusive to the Rubicon. 2001 was the first year of the Rubicon 500. That's a totally different transmission from the normal Foreman models.
