Great job! I hope Andrew gave this to you for free after this awesome install video! Installing my AD clutch kit tomorrow with a buddy of mine. Went with gold spring and 18g weights and his machined sheave. Full send!
I live out east and just bought a 2024 Grizzly 700. I go out to Colorado riding the high country 9-12K in elevation for 2 weeks every summer. I always changed the weights in my Polaris 570 SP to accommodate for the elevation difference. Do I need to change any clutch settings with a clutch kit or can I get away with keeping my clutch stock?
Okay, I purchased this same kit. How does it effect performance. Top end and bottom end? I don't want to loose top end as I do alot of road running. Bike currently tops out at 100km
When tightening that primary nut, ensure the belt isn’t resting down in the sheave or you won’t get the proper torque setting on it, the belt will be in the way and stop it. I always remove the belt, tighten it then reinstall the belt, just to be sure. Made the mistake once and learned!
@@atv_lifestyle once you start modding, you can't stop🤣🤣. Which is why I only do accessories. I think more about function, and since I'm someone who doesn't drag race a lot or do extreme mudding, so stock 700cc power is awesome. I bet that yours feels much better on the transmission and throttle now. Sometimes it's worth it and needed
so this kit is more for mud riding not trail riding? new subscriber here. not sure what the problem is with there website .it keeps telling me to put in a valid email address.
This set up is more for mud. If you reach out to Andrew and tell what you are looking for out of your machine he’ll get you set up. Install will be the same just different weights and spring
Don’t ever grease your outer collar with Tinkseal. It’s all going to end up on the belt and sheave faces. The engineer that designed Tinkseal would cringe seeing this. So much easier to drop the weights in the sheave, put the cam plate in and slide it on the collar while holding thumb pressure on the cam plate than messing with those weights falling out.
It’s a small amount of TS but as that sheave closes it wiped all that excess off and it went somewhere. Tinken is adamant not to let that stuff ever touch a sheave face. Maybe overkill but once in contact it get in the pours. You don’t just get rid of it with braklean. It slick and remains slick. It’s designed to be slick even if it dries up which is why it works so good in the secondary but not so much for belt grip. Good video for beginners. A lot to be learned for someone who is taking their first stab at it. 👍
@@atv_lifestyle I’m not a long way from Moab and Sand Hollow Utah. I love the rock crawling. I’m also very close to the San Juan Mtns (Alpine Loop) it’s extremely scenic but not much technical stuff. Not much mudding out here but clutching is similar to mudding so long as your on the therory not to delay wet clutch engagement but rather lock it right up. I was the first to find the right weights to drill and tap the shoes of the Rmax and install enough weight to overcome what was lost in drilling plus 8 extra grams. Yamaha discontinued the holes in the shoes on SXS after 2018. I ran across your video after just buying a new grizzly and I’m researching clutching. Tinken told me about Andrew Deal a couple years ago, in hopes that he’d start doing Rmax sheaves and was going to recommend me as a tester. That said, what I’m most curious about is, what your sheave ratio is with the AD sheave?
@westernslopermax216 you know I’m not sure on that. I never really asked Andrew. I just told him to send me his best set up for the set up I was running. I’ve been very happy with it. It’s gotten rid of any bogging issues I had
Bro you are a bad ass mechanic. One of the best I’ve seen on UA-cam.
Thank you. I truly appreciate that!
Nice job bud. People don’t understand how difficult it’s is to make how to videos. Can’t wait to ride together again!
Thank you! It definitely makes the job itself take more time.
Great job! I hope Andrew gave this to you for free after this awesome install video! Installing my AD clutch kit tomorrow with a buddy of mine. Went with gold spring and 18g weights and his machined sheave. Full send!
I hope this video makes your install a little easier. His instructions are also very good. You’ll be very happy with that set up!
AD is the man! Lucky he lives right down the road from me LOL!! keep up the great work!
He definitely knows what he’s talking about!
Good video Brother! Very useful info
Thank you!

I would ask Andrew and ad clutching to be safe. However Yamaha usually takes elevation change rather well though
Learned a lot from this. What did you torque the 22mm primary nut to? Or do you just crank it hard.
100ft lbs
I just press down in the rear brake with my foot and the side cover usually clears it.
Did you make a video showing the before and after?
It wasn’t accurate as I changed tires right afterwards

been looking at clutch kits for my sportsman 850 highlifter
Definitely recommend one! Made a world of difference especially off the line. I can’t wait to see how it does in the deep mud

Excellent video
How did u press the brass fitting in
I used a hydraulic press at work
Thanks for telling me to dimple the 27mm after putting the gasket back on🤣, other than that great video.
I apologize I accidentally did the same thing. I hope the rest of the video helped though
How did the old slugs come out? One thing I’ve never done is change the slugs.
Factory set up there won’t be slugs just open holes
Where are you located and how much would you charge for doing this for someone?
Sorry off topic but what snorkel kit do you have?
No problem! It’s the n2deep kit
Does tht clutch work with any elevation im at 6000 ft of elevation let me know
Usually, I like keeping machines mostly stock. No clutching, tuners, or intakes. I just like to keep it best.
Yeah unfortunately I have a problem where I can’t keep anything stock😂😂

@FullsendOffroad it’s definitely way snappier off the line. I can’t wait till spring to see how it does in the deep mid now
@@atv_lifestyle yeah it'll do well, just not with race slick tires😂😂😂
@FullsendOffroad that’s for sure😂😂

I see you do a lot of riding out west? How is it out there? I’d love to get my rzr out there some day
