The primary clutch is done on my wifes 97 MM600 twin.
I did a favor for a friend last year and ended up with a P-85 off his 2004 RMK 800. They are suppose to both be 30mm 1:10 taper (but I can't figure out what this means).
If you look at some clutch application guides, you can have a 0.2 long bore and a 0.03 short bore both with a 30mm 1:10 taper
I know there are at least 4 different P-85 clutches but don't know what years and sleds used what clutch and if this one will work on the 97 MM600.
Can anyone shed some light on this taper thing.

You need a wide roller p-85 off a triple.

I was under the impression that if the tapers matched, it would work. I can tune the P-85 if it will fit. From what I can tell, they are both 0.3, 30mm 1:10 tapers. I am not planning on using the yamaha weights springs etc...I am planning on using the Yamaha primary bolt, no washer and machined bushing. I will use Poo weights and spring. It's my wife's sled, so it doesn't have to be a monster, just trailable.
Your thoughts?

So I blued the PTO taper today and it looks like a direct fit. I will have to knock a few thou off the shoulder on the Yamaha clutch bolt, but I should be able to use the Polaris bushing after that.
I guess that would be the diff betwwen this P-85 and the wide roller triple would be that you can't use the Yamaha weights in this one?

That's why I'm going to use the Poo weights and spring.

If you got one off a 800 rmk its most likely a HD which is the best one. If all possible use the new 11 series polaris weights. They have a new profile and are very aggresive.
