Hello,


i been riding my 2003 Yamaha SX Viper 700 for 8 times this season,it got the Bender tripple pipes and the engine has been completely rebuilt at the beginning of the year.

When i am sledding on powder or thick snow sometime the sled does not want to go above 6000-7000 rpm like if the clutch was not gearing down but when i am on groomed trail the sled goes 9000 rpm no problem with a lot of juice !

This is a problem because with the bowls that we got over here i need at least 8000 rpm minimum to be sure to be able to come back up.

I am thinking that it probably link with the clutch weight adjustment , the sled got the tripple bender pipes .

Maybe adding a clutch kit would fixed that ? anyone got advices on how adjusting the weight of the original secondary clutch and spring adjustment ? or if anyone know any affordable clutch kit suggestion that would make it a better powder sled?


thanks for reading this thread and Any help would be greatly appreciated
