Feels like some thing slipping at top RPM??

[MUZBOMB]

Hey i was out to day riding and when i cracked it open across a feild i pulls hard and hits 7900RMP's. Once and awhile it slips loose power and if you let off then get back on it is there again? I ride at 2500ft i have a orange/white primary spring with 77g weights and a RKT secondary kit(34/36 helix) with a green sno pro spring. Should i adjust the RKT secondary and put alittle more tension on the spring? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

What are you riding?My guess by your RPM is a M1K.If so what belt are you running and have you checked to see if rivits have come out or loose on cover under secondary?

Sorry a 07 M8

It sounds like you maybe getting a little snow on your clutches causing it to slip.It happened to me after landing on top of a stump which knocked out a couple of rivits on cover under secondary.

Cheers,
Dave

Have you checked the condition of your belt. If it is missing teeth this can cause the symptoms that you are talking about.

I dont have a clue eh?

I ride real powder, hood packed full of it including the clutches ALL DAY LONG! and never have had a slipping issue due to snow, only improper maintainance and set-up or rider error will cause your issue.....some people dont have a clue. thanks.

I had the same problem. Pull off your secondary clutch, clean it with brake cleaner. Sometimes belt dust will keep it from opening smoothly. Just did mine and it work great. See if it helps. 5.00 fix

Ahh ha ha. Nice.


It was primary spring bind. The spring is getting crushed in the spider cup some times and not others.
