    I’m glad to see some new vids out ! I have a KRX same color. Your videos and reviews is what convinced me to purchase the krx over the talon and I’m so happy with it

    Thanks guys!! Glad to hear from riders not dealers. Of course, a dealer is going to tell you it’s the greatest machine ever. I have a yxz that I love and l have had great luck with it. My yxz has almost 6500 miles on it and zero problems. The problem is a yxz a little high strung for my riding style. Thanks again.

    I'm right there with ya on using only OEM belts. I have never put an aftermarket brand belt on any of my Polaris machines, and have never broken a belt. I will do the same with my KRX. I would bet the dealership messed up the seal when they checked the clutch bolts. If it came from the factory like that, the dealer should have seen and replaced it then.

    A little late to this video. I wish you had shown a close-up of the primary sheaves. I pulled mine apart last week (1600 miles) and my sheaves are fairly well worn. Dealer insists they're fine so I won't worry about it, but would love to have seen yours to compare. I put a new belt on too for the heck of it; also saving the old one for a spare.

      Yes windshield is in stock and I use Ace Hardware for all my bolts. They always have a great selection.

      I would. Despite a few first year bugs, the KRX is a very well built machine and is proving to be very reliable. -Joe

      It's M10 x 1.25, 60 mm long! 10 mm is the diameter and 1.25 is the pitch. The way you said it is like saying 1/4 x 1", 20, when it is 1/4-20 x 1".

    Are those the original tires? Man mine with just 100 miles are missing chunks and have cuts. Probably wont make it to 300 miles. You must ride in some smooth and clean conditions.

    • @DerangedOffRoad

    Question, if you reinstall the old belt don’t you need to note direction of rotation? I was told that was not necessary with a new belt. Good vid.👍

    So my krx has abt 1400 miles on it and I just recently changed the belt cause it was slipping a lot but I took it off yesterday and the intire belt box was covered in belt dust like everything in a thick and it’s only had abt 200 miles on the new belt is that a problem ?

    • @DerangedOffRoad
      @DerangedOffRoad  4 роки тому +1

      Yes you will find tons of dust when removing the cover. I like to blow mine out every 500 miles or so. Also I noticed more dust when the belt was first new. I would also just check the belt for any unusual wear to make sure you don’t have an issue with anything. My guess though it’s fine overall. 👍
