Status: offline 		ATV BELT SLIPPAGE WITH BIG TIRES :

Belt To sheave force in the driven clutch is calibrated for "stock" tires. If this calibration is too stiff it will not shift out for top speed requirements. If it is to soft it will slip and then the drive clutch will over shift. Driven springs have three specifications. (varies by brand ) 1. 2.5 inches in load lbs. 2. 1.25 inches in load lbs. 3. Shift rate lbs.

If a spring has a heavy, heavy load point, but soft shift rate, the result is heat which will effect rate into the ride, ie: loose back shift.

When you re-calibrate the driven clutch, it will effect the calibration of the drive clutch. The rate at which the drive clutch shifts up is mainly determined by drive clutch calibration; but is also effected by the driven calibration. The drive clutch calibration effects are as follows: 1. stall (engagement) 2. top RPM 3. throttle responce of engine. 4. belt squeeze.

If a driven clutch requires a stiffer spring for belt squeeze, it makes it harder for the drive clutch to open the driven clutch to higher ratio's. The drive and driven clutches MUST work together for proper performance.

WHY CHANGE THE WEIGHTS :

1. Larger tire diameter lowers engine RPM
2. Kawasaki has a style of weight commonly called "heavy tip." A characteristic of a heavy tip is belt slippage at engagement and slower backshift in the mid-range and top end.
3. A heaver weight style moves more weight for better engagement and mid-range. This style is called a "light tip". It causes less belt slippage at engagement and better backshift due to proper weight placement.

To sum up, it takes new custom springs for both clutches along with new weights to have proper squeeze and grip allowing you to turn big tires in deep mud.

Status: offline 		Because of the slightly high gearing combined with a ton of torque on the V-Twin, proper belt adjustment is of critical importance. Then ALWAYS be in low range when in 4wd, use the throttle carefully leaving your ego at home and don't drink two six packs of beer which can cause heavy thumb syndrome.......lol.

Status: offline 		I'm going to have to disagree with the heavy tip theory. I added wieght to the tip of my stock wieghts and It has noticably improved the belt grip.
I dont know if this works as well for the brutes with the 4.3 gears but on my Cat V2 with 4.0 gears it is the best setup I have tried.

I can now ride with mine in high gear without worrieng about the belt sliping, but I still put in low for the mud. I have done alot of deep mud riding since I've put the wieghts in and I havent sliped the belt once, not even in reverse wich was still a big problem with just the springs. I havent been in any situation were it has boged the motor down and I have finaly shut my buddies up on how there bike is better than mine becuase "my belt slips"

It has also increased acceleration quite a bit ( It is a drag racing mod )
I can pull a wheelie in low gear, leaning over the handle bars!

BTW, I'm out of this post. Bye !!! I hope some of you will benefit from this post. I assure you it's correct/best for a Brute Force with monster tires and deep mud.

Status: offline 		If the HL extreme duty clutch kit is all it takes to avoid belt burning, slippage on Brutes with 29.5" Outlaws...WHY do people have all these questions and problems getting it setup right?

I'm NOT asking to be a jerk...I am about to buy a BF 750, and I don't know if I want to get Outlaws or not.  If someone can tell me EXACTLY what I need to have done to the clutch/belt...then I want the 29.5" Outlaws.  If all people can do is guess...I'm not going to deal with it.

Just posting what I had delt with and my setup, in case there are some people that can benefit from it. It was a mod I learnd about through Mary from Kiss of Death and it has worked well. The intire wieght setup cost me 8 bucks and has been well worth it. I just figured it was worth mentioning.

Status: offline 		Outlaws are worth figuring out your clutch problems if you have them.  Some people have problems and some dont.  There is no comparison to outlaws in my opinion.  They pull better than any other tire.  Plus they are coming out with 31s how can you go wrong.

Status: offline 		I said I was out and meant it, however, it's hard not to try to help you. First let me say NOTHING stops belt slippage on the Brute completely everytime. Way, way to many varibles, ie: heavy thumbs, high range mud use, worn belts, belts out of proper alignment/deflection, poor driver skills, high gearing on the Brute combined with a bunch of low end torque, etc. That's just the way it is on the V-2 Kawi's and Cats. What you must do is have the belt installed correctly along with our kit designed for extreme duty use and make sure you operate the ATV with a little common since. With any "monster" tires, not just 29.5's, this is is the best set up we know about. Guys I've said all I know to say. Re-read my post, because it provides the answers we have for a correct custom clutch set-up. As a last reminder, the belt MUST be installed dead on the money and kept fresh for the clutch kit to have a chance to stop or lower occurance of belt slippage. Then the rest is left up to how you operate your unit.

Thank YOU!!!!!!! I have been saying this for 2 years. We get new people all the time on here and sometimes we get post jet lag. If Trapper, Polaris425 or Scribner would add this to the clutch post "how to tighten the belt" and people will read it and truely beleive that we are not BS'ing them, then they will have some awesome riding BF's out there. Anyone can add springs and weights, but if the belt is not in deflection or is in bad shape and the sheaves or in bad shape from burning previous belts, the BF, Prarie etc is still gonna run like crap. I let my service dept. install my first clutch kit and thought I would have the best clutch kit because it was HL's and professionals installed it. Boy was I wrong. The clutch kit was awesome, just the individual installing it had no clue what he was doing. I sat down with the service manual and picked KOD's brain and a few others on here and learned "ON Here" how to properly install a clutch, clean the sheaves and check deflection. I have had 0 problems since.

What you guys/gals need to understand about what Bushhog is telling you is that they did all the trial and error testing. They ran the test with different springs and weights. What they have to offer is the best setup for 29.5's and less. What we "members" on the forum have to offer is experience with different setups in different types of situations we have experienced ourselves. We have tried there products over the years and when the 29.5's came out, they realized they needed something better in the clutch dept. They went back and tested somemore and came out with the Extreme clutch kit. It works for 29.5's. I can tell you from first hand experience.  Alot of the information people seek out everyday is already on here if you just look in the obvious places or do a search. Have a good BF day.

I've seen a guy with an extreme duty clutch kit installed on his Grizzly.  It seemed that when he gave it gas the RPMs would go up and then the clutch would engage.  Then it sort of jerked into gear (for lack of a better word) and I didn't like how it did that. 

Is there a "stall" effect when you install a clutch kit?

Status: offline 		Just take it easy till you get a good feel for the stall.  When I first put mine on, I did abunch of other mods at the same time (Moose module, Twist Throttle, lift, 29.5's and just about everything else I had stacked up in the corner waiting for the Warranty to expire) 

Went to load it up, and finness it up to the edge of the trailer ... gave it a bit too much gas and climbed over the trailer rail.  It wasn't too bad out on the muddy trails at Mud Nats... but I was nervous trying to climb up on those bridges from 2 years ago. 

The only problems I have had with belt slippage was when I put it in reverse to try and back out of a hole I was in that the tires were having trouble turning in low.  Burned belt (Stock belt).  Then when I got some water in the belt and slipped it (That one I hadn't shimmed in propperly <Dayco>) 

Now with a propperly shimmed Kawasaki brand belt (And the addition of a tuned Primary)  I have noticed a slight drop in stall, and also awseome performance out on the trails.

Status: offline 		...........you have the right to agree or disagree flynt, but I would think one of the worlds best re-clutching engineer's, Glenn at EPI, along with his very experienced R&D people, plus the R&D test staff at High Lifter, might, just might, be correct. Glenn for the record is a multi-time open class world champion snowmobile snow/grass drag racer who always re-clutched his own snowmobiles. The principals he learned over many years on snowmobiles are the same re-clutching principals for ATV's. He is also a highly paid consultant on a regular basis to various OEM's to help improve certain specialized ATV/UTV clutching applications. We've only sold several 1000 of these kits in the last few years. We also have four 750 Brutes that we ride here at High Lifter that turn 29.5's all the time. I believe we have it figured out. BTW, I have a ton of respect for your motor mods and other mechanical skills, but since I know what you believe to be true concerning clutching, I think ours is a better over-all mouse trap. That certainly does not make your ideas wrong. No doubt, they are far better than a stock set-up. We just have a difference of opinion which is not a bad thing.

OK Mudcon, you better head for Windrock or someplace else where my main heavy work dude, Roscoe, can't find you........lol. If he does find you and knocks on your door and all you see is a big hairy chest on eye level, duck and run........lol again !!!!!  Naw, I'm just kidding. Hope you have a great weekend.

Status: offline 		Hmmm weight profile.

If your weight profile is putting more clamping force at a lower rpm then why does it have to stall up more before it starts to to force the clutch sheaves together compared to the stock weights.

Stall also on a grab and go setup like the kawie's and polaris's does hurt belt grip and your kit includes higher stall primary springs which are unnecessary.

Also might want to do a little research on the brutes gearing... its far from high.

Top speed is lost as the red and yellow secondary springs are so long they coil bind so the secondary can't open up any further. It doesn't matter what you do to the primary you'll never get more top speed out of the red and yellow secondary.

This is where we have to comprimise on what we want our bikes to do...Do we want them to pull like a tractor thru the mud  or do we want it to stretch out like a vette and water our eyeballs.   The loss of top end isn't a concern to most of us running 29.5s....But I would like the acceleration back . I guess this is where playing around with the wieghts work. I'm  running 2-56/2-54( the effect of haveing 55 gram weights) I'm going to try the stock ones and see what happens. This may be a happy medium.

Status: offline 		Thanks Goatmanx, these are my thoughts exactly, just couldn't put it into words. Dan, I mean no dissrespect at all. I just feel differently about this. I have alot of customers that are tired of buying belts and want me to do something about it. Well, I have installed the most aggressive set up that ya'll offer and still smoking belt. So I had to look at it farther and came up with my own set up and so far... We've been successful. It's not for everyone but works. Not selling any more belts.

SSTOGI, If you want the acceleration back, Go with the heavier wieghts like you are talking about.(you wont be dissappointed) AS I said in my post above, I'm running heavier than stock wieghts and it works great!! And I dont claim to be any kind of expert on anything but they sure seem to hold the belt better to me.
As long as you dont make them to heavy you will not bog in the thick stuff.
