2008 polaris 700 bogging

Finally got my first ride in today. My sled has developed a bog at different RPM's. On the stand it runs great through the RPM band. On the snow it boggs out at varying/random RPM's. If i feather the throttle I can get it up to the full 8k RPM, but otherwise it can barely hit 7k. It seems like it wants to go but just wont "shift out". It seems to run OK when cold, but after a mile or so it just wont pull revs anymore. Any ideas? I'm guessing in the clutch but no idea where to start.
 
check your motor mounts too... we had one with 2 that were broke and one that was falling out. It was doing wacky stuff like that too...
 
Check your exhaust valves, sound like what mine does when they have a broken bellow or collapsed spring.
 
Having my local shop run through it.... Clutch weight was rubbing into the aluminum where it sets which could be causing prt of the issue. I replaced the bushings in them when I did the preseason, but must not have gotten them right. My secondary clutch was also a bitch to get opened up so I'm assuming there is something wrong there as well. Don't have to tools to mess with clutches or I would have done it myself. Also gonna change out the fuel filter and see if that helps. I'll get back to yall when it's done and I can ride it again (still no snow here in SW washington).
 
If your primary is worn out that bad..

Might be better off looking for a slightly used one.. or Brand new take off...
