stock clutch ?

[22Chet]

How long does the stock clutch hold up ? I got on my bike today after letting it sit for awhile and WOT from a stop it didnt seem to have as much as it usually does :'(

Mine is still stock. And holding strong!

I have well over 200 hours on the bike and 100 of which were while the bike was over 70hp. But when I built the bike I shimmed the springs a little bit for a touch more pressure.

Chet, are you running a synthetic oil??  I heard about issues with wet clutches and synthetic oils.

I think that may be a load of crap. Mine has had nothing but 10-40 amsoil since day one.

I put alot of hard time on it this weekend and think it MAY be on its way out. When I drop the clutch hard it doesnt snap like it use to. 73hp might be near the limit.

im no where near that HP :'(, and i dont drop the clutch im usually in my opinion easy on it. Ill take her for another cruise later on and see how it feels.

I've run The same Amsoil for about 3 months without issue too, just reporting on some issues I've read about.

How long was it sitting for?

[22Chet]

only a couple weeks. ive been busy and havent given her much attention. Maybe shes mad at me.

My first one lasted a yr on the big 3 and now I have a new OEM with 80hp and it seems to still hold up fine

Stock clutch is holding up good since November 2005 & lots of hours on the quad
