sled is stock notice over the weekend that my engine is reeving too high 9000-9100 i know its too much ,right now my spring is at 3-3 .Is there another combination that i should try ?
 
Well if you are running a Yamaha 8DN belt, you could switch to a Ultimax-3 which is a stickier compound belt, and you could easily pull the RPMs down about 300 RPM. Maybe your sled was clutched for an Ultimax belt??

The SXRs over-reved right out of the crate.
 
My 2000 SX700R was over revving even with a brand new OEM belt. It went away after I towed an Arctic Cat a few miles. Might just be the tackiness thing that Exciterfan was talking about.
 
The stock clutching in the 600 & 700 triples is way out too lunch. You have to add more primary weight & this 100% normal.
 
Over Reving

tried another used belt tonight seem to me that shes reving higher then the other one .I will stop to my yamaha dealer tomorrow night and buy a new belt and some rivet for my primary will let you guys know how this ended
thanks for the info guys

I know exactly how it will end because if have clutched about a dozen 600 triples. By adding a 4.5 gram rivet to the inner hole rpm,s will be 84-8500 rpm all day long.
 
I guess the question is did it ever run at 8300 as it's supposed to? And Turk is right the 600 triple is the most improperly clutched sled they ever let out, they all turn 88-9000 and when you load it down low correctly then it goes lean. I ended up with 8BU-10's in Nan's.
 
AND..... Turk is the Man!!!

I know my first post on this thread said exactly what Turk just suggested, but that's because I already took his advice and installed the 4.5 gram rivet in my 600!!!
 
Depends on what year & model of 700. they were all clutched differently.
 
Thanks

thanks Turk and Exciterfan for the info just added 4.5 and she's reving like a charm
