are you saying my clutch could be slipping on my crank?
oh ok yes it was replaced at the dealer i purchased it fromfourbarrel said:What he's refering to is the crank issues Yamaha had with the 98 model SRX's where most if not all would go out of spec (wobble) as they had soft pins when pressed together new.Yours should have been fixed but if your not sure take the vin number to a dealer and he should be able to run it and tell you when/if it was done.Good luck.
Dang, I just put a new Gates on mine also. There was a Yamaha on it but was shot.shortstop20 said:OEM belt is the only way to go for the SRX.

What I did this weekend was take out the powervalves and cleaned them. All three were stuck in the closed position! all cables were still attached to the valves but were not attached to the servo wheel! Did they come off by themselves or did someone unhook them?! Anyway, I didn't want to take off the pipes so I didn't adjust them yet, just cleaned and hooked them back up. I made a few passes across our field and could definitely tell the difference! It still didn't scare me though, just got me excited!I will be going for a longer ride some time this week, so I'll check out how it feels and watch how my RPMs act. No lake action so I won't be topping it out. Honestly I won't be racing much, if any, I just want it to scare me a little then I'll be satisfied!
