So working on the machines today found this interesting, My 2015 Pro X Rush 800 like posted above was set up at the factory with .360" behind the clutch and .400" worth of washers on the bolt and had maybe .030" float. My 2016 Pro S Switch only had 1 .060" shim behind the clutch and 1 .100" shim...

How much is too much float? I have been going over my clutches and was playing with the secondary float, what i have found is Polaris had 3x .120" washers behind the driven (.360") and 4x .100" washers behind the bolt (.400'). I thought about just removing 2 of the washers behind the secondary...

How would this setup work on a SLP piped 1.86 ratio shorty with 1 3/4" track (no studs)? I weigh about 265 full gear and riding on/off trail moderate to aggressive. I already have a kit thats installed but haven't rode it yet but is very different than everything listed on this site, i am...

I went ahead and pulled out the SLP recommended clutch chart that came with the pipe kit. Very similar with the higher spring rates like the kit I have now. Only thing is SLP is just using the stock helix for 0-3000'. SLP kit primary 160/340 71g with 2g in heel and 2g tip Secondary 140/220...

Strange, very reputable shop that sells/installs tons of kits. The AXYS RMK guys loving there mountain version of there clutching from the reviews i have read. I will have to question them about the spring rate/helix choice they use and see what they say i guess. I will atleast give it a good...

Thanks for the advice Dr, I do have this kit installed already but have yet to try it. The helix is a dual so it has the option to run it at 60/42.36, would this be any better? Edited helix number in this post.

2015 RUSH Pro X 800, has 1.86 stock gearing for the 1.75" track and SLP Pipe/can. Here is the clutching details my local performance shop is suggesting for 0-2000' aggressive trail performance. They have a great reputation on there kits but i see nothing close to these specs here in the other...

Keep us posted how you like it, did you also get the ti can? I was in the same boat, I purchased the SLP pipe and can for my pro x short and just a can for the wife's pro s switch. I know it didn't do as well in the pipe shoot out but was able to get them local at less than msrp without paying...

My 15 was also .018" when installing the gates on the stock clutch. I was told by the shop I got my clutch kit through that it would need shimmed anyway when installing the MTX weights so I went ahead and let them install the parts, I have no way in my shop to take the spider apart. I get it...

I believe (correct me if I am wrong) if you have the AXYS tool 51607, perfect alignment will have your bar touching both front and rear edges of the driven sheave (.000). But you are allowed up to .025" at the front and up to .060" at the rear and still be considered in spec. So if yours had...

I will be dialing in my clutches for the gates belt next week, the shop that shimmed it for me set it to wide at around .035" so it is going back to have one of the .020 shims removed.

We are 0-1000 ft pretty much anywhere we can ride in AK, some of the mountain guys might get to an area that's 2000-3000 but its all low elevation riding up here.

After reading through the results of the pipe shootout I see the SLP didn't fair as well as I might have hoped. Would there be any benefit to adding the power commander to an SLP piped/clutched 800 vs using the SLP resistor? Any maps built around the SLP pipe? I only have access to 90 octane...

OK, thanks for the advice.

Honestly I think it is plenty fast enough for me getting in to the 90's, I just keep reading about some people well in to the triple digits and was curious if mine was not performing as it should. I realize now that those machines hitting those numbers were switchs or s models with different...
