ok all you belt people. let's get busy on this one. took my side case off to watch the belt in action (I had a suspicion). just as I thought. when in high gear the primary and secondary sheaves fail to completely operate the belt to it's limits. no such problem when in low gear. the belt buries itself in the primary and rides the edge of the secondary. when in high it only moves a little more than halfway through the sheaves. where's the problem??? what's the solution???

 

Well first off are you giving it a change to reach top speed so to speak. It happens in low very fast but in high it just seems to pull forever. Perhaps that is the reason. If i get some free time i will pull the cover off mine and check it out.

 

Out of curisoity?

Why did you remove the cover to look? Was there a malfunction?

years ago when I raced snowmobiles we always kept a couple of sets of clutch weights and springs available so that we could make changes depending on conditions. I was curious as to how accessible the clutch system was. Highlifter evidentally realizes this as they have clutch weights available for the Grizzly. When I asked my Yamaha dealer about it all I got was a "DUH".

 

If the belt is not all the way out then it would have more top speed, I would think. I tried to order a set of weights for my 00 Kodiak but I guess they haven't had a chance to make them. I was wanting to lower the cruise speed down a little.
