Should I lubricate my snowmobile clutch?
that is correct, you do not lubricate a snowmobile primary clutch. It is considered a “dry clutch” on an atv, you use a quality grease to lube the rollers but that is not done on a snowmobile.
What RPM should snowmobile clutch engage?
Idle should be about 1000-1500, clutch should engage at 3500-3600rpm.
What should a snowmobile idle at?
1500-1700 rpm for idle is pretty normal when fully warmed up. Don’t worry about the high idle down syndrome…its normal. For mostly drag racing on packed snow these sleds rip with an almond/gold spring and 62 weights in the primary.
How can I improve clutch performance on my sled?
After all, you’re running the same sled with the same parts, you have the same track and you even weigh the same. The difference probably lies in the clutches. Sometimes the best tuning practices for clutching are more than just running the proper weights or installing the right helix for your altitude.
Do you need the same clutch kit for the same sled?
After all, you’re running the same sled with the same parts, you have the same track and you even weigh the same. SHR Clutch Kits include only parts you need for maximum performance. In some cases OEM parts are retained if they are the best choice.
What’s the best way to clean a clutch?
When cleaning or servicing clutches, the last step should always be washing them in hot soapy water and then rinsing so that what is left is a nice clean surface to provide maximum traction to the belt. 2. Wash both the clutches and the belt in hot soapy water
When do you need a SHR clutch kit?
SHR Clutch Kits include only parts you need for maximum performance. In some cases OEM parts are retained if they are the best choice. If your sled is used in extreme conditions, modified other than as specified, rider weight exceeds 220 lbs., or with a heavily studded track, a custom combination may apply.

Why does clutch not work on 2 stroke snowmobile?
On some 2-stroke snowmobiles you must add clutch weight or RPM will be too low. 2-stroke pipes are made to work when they are hot. If you do not load the motor hard enough, not enough heat will be built up in the pipe which will result in poor running condition and lower than normal peak RPM.
What should you take away from the clutching Tech?
What you should take away from all of this clutching is a delicate balance of multiple variables. Clutching is much more than just shooting for a target rpm. Good clutching will reduce heat in your belt, increase belt life and get power to the ground more efficiently.
