Ive blown two on our 1100t both with less then 300 miles on them. One only had 120 miles. Secondary is twice as hot as primary.

Sounds similar to mine. Had the Jack shaft nut in the chain case come loose allowing the secondary clutch to walk in and out under load.

Dealer told us that the jack shaft issue did not effect the turbos, said that they dont even use the same type of retention system. Is this true or not, thanks.

I have gone through 4 belts in about 440 miles, two of them less then 60 miles. It's bull crap and dealer saying they can't find a problem.

There is a service bulletin also I guess.
Here is the link to my other tread. Blew a belt at 300 miles. Lots of belt dust too.

My 1100t secondary is always hotter than my primary. Put MDS weights in for the ride yesterday. Really cooled the clutch temps down, especially the primary. I have heard the the bushings in the secondary sticks allowing the belt to slip there and get hot.

Belt mileage

Have over 600 miles on original belt...knock on wood. All stock clutching for first 350.

Well your dealer is wrong. Once you remove the reverse gear system in the chain case, its basically identical to the 800 except the jackshaft is a tad bit longer. Same update washers as the 800.

I have 600 miles on my M 1100 T this season on the original belt. I also have a hijacker and silencer....No problems what so ever....

made it to 598 before my first belt went. very similar inside the chain case minus the mechanical reverse, 1100 t's use a 15w upper gear and chain.

Grenaded second belt at 575 miles next one at 590 miles on groomed trail coming off the mountain. May have the chain case gremlin back again

The jackshaft nut is the same as the 800 and I have seen them loose. If the shaft is sliding out of spec .090" Then the nut is loosening. Make sure it is tightened to 50ft/lbs and that the retainer in locked into the slot.

Still on my original belt.

1065 miles on original belt on my 1100T and it was tortured my last ride at renshaw a week ago with warm outside temps. I put the old style mseries intake frogskins on the inside of the clutch duct and the other one behind it that points right at the engine. No more belt slipping playing in powder or steam clouds.

Jack shaft nut came loose at 300 mile mark. Dealer did retourque nut and it was good till now. Maybe nut come loose again? Also had the primary stick a couple times after long pull up the hill.
