Primary Clutch Maintenance Kit
The primary clutch utilizes rollers and sliders that can bind due to friction or debris. If these components do not slide freely, the clutch remains partially closed at idle, maintaining belt tension and spinning the transmission input shaft. Replacing the rollers and bushings restores the centrifugal mechanism's ability to fully retract and release the belt load.

CVT Drive Belt (Carbon Fiber Reinforced)
A glazed or heat-damaged belt can develop 'hour-glassing' or surface hardening that increases friction against the sheaves even when the clutch is open. This parasitic drag keeps the secondary clutch rotating, making it difficult for the gearbox to synchronize gears during shifts. A new belt ensures the proper clearance between the primary sheaves and the belt side-walls at idle.

Internal Transmission Shift Fork
When a CVT system experiences clutch drag, operators often apply excessive force to the shift lever to overcome the gear load. This physical stress can bend or crack the internal shift fork. If the clutch is functioning correctly but shifting remains 'notchy' or produces a metallic clunk, the fork is likely deformed and unable to align the dog gears properly.
