Great point Scott! We did have a small bit in there but I edited it out because most of these *should* be aligned from the factory. Because that is an edge case, we just took that small part out so that it wouldnt' be considered a 'common' issue because it shouldn't be. Thanks so much for watching!
during neutral/idle the primary (front) clutch sheaves open up when the rpms drop allowing the belt the 'sit' near the center shaft without friction. The same is true during coasting; when you left off the throttle those primary sheaves will release allowing the belt to drop toward the center shaft. Once the throttle is engaged again, the sheaves will start to pinch as the rpm's increase and the belt is engaged. The higher the RPMs, the higher the belt will ride in the primary clutch. I hope that helps and thanks for taking the time to watch!
Roger explained CVT operation better than EVERYONE ELSE on the InterTubes! Well worth the 21 minutes, well done guys THANK YOU!
Glad it was helpful - Roger knows this stuff really well! Thanks again for taking the time to watch!
This is probably the best video on youtube for utv/snowmobile clutches. Thank you!
Thanks! Appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Should have covered alignment/spacing. All clutching starts there no matter the machine, clutches clutch tuning kit. Nicely done video.

Thanks Mitch! Appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Great vid!
how does neutral/idle work? how does coasting work?
