CFMOTO Clutch Mods with AIRDAM CLUTCHES | How to remove CVTech Clutch Primary & Secondary

[@MoffettCreations]

Love the channel. Just bought my Cforce 600 today. Can’t wait to rip it up!!!

[@raulvargas6575]

Great explanation of how the CVT works to those of us that have just a basic understanding. "At 5% throttle, it's shifting into 2nd or 3rd gear, this boggs the motor down"

[@MoffettCreations]

Dang Airdam Clutches is on the ball!! I live in meridian ms and i ordered my clutch kit yesterday at about 3 pm and it arrived today at 10:30am. Can’t wait to install

[@RealTalkPowersports]

That is awesome!!!

[@ralphb.rascon3313]

Great video as usual! I like how thorough he was in his explanation. Looking forward to the follow up video.

Thanks Ralph! And thanks for your continued support and encouraging comments! It means a lot!

[@codyschmidtmann3992]

Come on Blake I've been following you I could send you pictures if you want I got my 30-in cryptids on here you got to tell me what stages he went through on your clutch so I can either send it out or do it myself. I took one hell of a ride yesterday because of Corona virus I could take the river right down much further than I ever could before because they're not closing the locks. Is one of the best rides you've ever had but I need to know what I got to do so I don't burn this belt up cuz I can tell that there's definitely more weight on these tires. Help a brother out awesome video again thank you for doing as much as you have been doing for CF Moto and enjoying it. You been the man

[@thomascornelius510]

Yeah man. This is a great video. I just put 32s on my 950 and it's great to see all the options that are available for the overall performance of the machine. Thank you very much.

[@KakarotsSpirit4]

Absolutely excellent video! I just wish I would hear something back from Adam. Finally did get an initial reply to emails asking for details, riding style and conditions, etc., I replied and then nothing. Haven't heard anything more from him in several weeks now. The penny trick it is I guess.

You guys are awesome I just bought a cforce 800 3 weeks ago went trail riding last weekend this machine. Awesome you guys have made it great do you have the information to work on this thing need to do a brake job on your 800 so I know how to do that LOL keep up the good work

[@black3rs]

Just got a CForce 625 (same as 2020 600 in the USA), very interested to hear Adam talk about it and can't wait to see your post on the install - I'll definitely be contacting Airdam, as he is spot on with the 600 diagnosis. Hope they can post to Australia! Thanks for the videos...

Hello. I have a segway snarler 600l. Can you suggest what to change in the variator to become more powerful. And where can you buy? What details are needed? Spring? Weights? How much weight?

[@kimf8288]

Bought an 08 Arctic Cat 650 a few years ago with the original CVTech Secondary. Was trying to change the belt. When spreading the sheaves the screw bounced off the metal bushing between them and bent the screw and bushing. Is there a point for the bushing and can I replace it with any metal bushing?

What do you guys use to remove the fixed sheive pulley. I have this cf moto z 950 that I have to replace the CV housing inner cover.

i am trying to change out my belt and i remove the 19mm bolt, then the 30mm nut and washer - problem is that the pulley stays stuck on the shaft. I cannot for the life of me pull it out. any ideas why this is? should i apply some heat?

[@mikedemanuel3608]

Just a heads up. I installed the clutch kits in a 2021 600 touring and a 2021 800xc yesterday. Both machines needed an 18 , 32 and a 35 mm socket. Not a 30. I don't want anyone to have to go out and buy the proper socket in the middle of the job like I did.

[@fairchaseoutdoors4181]

Just did it on my 600 and it took an 18, 30, and 32 mm socket. My uncles 800 was the same.

My 2019 CFmoto Cforce 500s (75hours) was stolen and when it was found it wouldnt drive-found the remnants of the belt in the clutch and a weird tapping noise-cleaned it up and reinstalled with new belt but still makes weird nosie and when I put in gear the engine dies-Im guessing both primary/secondary clutches are shot? I think the thief rode the ATV fast in low gear? Is there anything I need to check? Im scared something internally is bad…

[@RydinginStyle72]

If you remove one of the shims on the primary spring will it not reduce RPM clutch engagement buy effectively softening the factory primary spring?

Hi. great review and explanation. i just purchased a 2022 cf moto 600 touring. I am noticing the atv is revving very high at low speed. Its up around 5000 rpm when doing around 20 to 30 kph. Also seems as if the engine is very loud. Is there anyway i can lower the rpms while riding at these speeds. It just seems like the engine is working way to hard at low cruising speed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@bayboat5486]

UForce 1000, what do you recommend if I want super smooth take off and engagement at lower rpm.Don’t want to loose a lot of top speed, but I don’t off road hard. Just some trail riding on sand from time to time.

[@mattkrus9968]

Love the videos I have the same 2020 600 but blue and just dropped it off at Main Street Thursday I’m getting a 2 in lift 14” rims and 28” outback max tires if you don’t mind me asking what did it cost to get the clutching done cause I have a feeling I will need it

[@RealTalkPowersports]

They are working on setting up a good price for the DIY clutch kit and a price for if you want it installed at the shop... If it aint too late id encourage you not to go with the outback max tires.. They are Ridiculously heavy compared to the cryptids and other tires

[@mattkrus9968]

Real Talk Powersports I wanted the cryptids but they didn’t have any in the size I needed you don’t think it will hurt the 600 do you cause I asked them that at Main Street and they said they weren’t any heavier than the moto havocs they put on the 600 I really appreciate you responding also and love the videos I really wish they had a snorkel kit for the 600 also

[@RealTalkPowersports]

@@mattkrus9968 The Outback max are great tires.. they just are a few pounds heavier than the cryptids.. Just make sure you stay in low unless your average speed will be over 15 MPH then stop and put her in high

Hello bro, how should the roller weight of a cf moto look like? heavier or lighter? Thx

[@mayasdaddy1]

On the primary, you mention the washers and to not throw them away. What do they do? My situation is that something was clanging under warranty, so I took it in to the dealer. They fixed the clanging, but now it has a severe lag in engaging on takeoff, and the compression braking engages way too early. Is it possible that the dealer left those washers out and that's causing this problem? It is now out of warranty.

[@RealTalkPowersports]

All the washers are for is proper belt alignment. If it has been messed up since the dealer fixed the other issue then they should qt least take a look at it for you without charging you to see if what they did caused another problem

Hey Blake, i want this kit but i cant get a response from adam or main street cycle??

I contacted Airdum clutch and Main Street Cycle but no one has responded for last 3 weeks. I would really like to install a kit ( spring and rollers) for primary clutch. Is there some website to order central spring and variomat roller? Can i just re-clock secundary clutch for better performance for drive uphil in high gear?

[@travisblack50]

What size socket for the secondary on a cforce 500?

[@dalle5840]

A question: I found this video because I need to learn more about ATV engines. My problem is that I would like a much more "spongy" engagement of the throttle. On my 850 XC it's really hard to drive very slow and precise. What mods would you recommend then? A harder spring on the primary so it does not close as fast, hence slipping more in the start?

[@AlexVladAtvVlog]

Hello everyone , how should the rollers in the variator be heavier or lighter? To have better acceleration and have more climbing power.

[@BrandoCG]

Do you have to take off the primary to take of the secondary clutch ?

[@RealTalkPowersports]

Your going to have to use a 1/2 inch Impact to get it loose without the primary spinning.

[@RealTalkPowersports]

[@BrandoCG]

I’m using the makita 1/2 inch impact gun and it’s not even budging I was so excited to try my new clutch setup I got from Adam but this ain’t working as planed. I literally just got it back from my first service today to.

[@josephrunkles4577]

So reclocked my secondary from B1 to B2 but haven't noticed much of a difference if any. Am I missing something?

[@RealTalkPowersports]

B1 to b2 is not much of a difference. You need to try C2 or B3.. both of those are close to the same tension. And you need to order the kit from Main Street Cycle. It will have a stiffer primary spring and different weights for the primary

[@BrandoCG]

How much torque does that impact driver have ? I used two types of impacts with 1400 lbs of torque and the bolt ain’t even turning. Anyone have any advice on what I can do next.

[@RealTalkPowersports]

Wow.. naw I have been able to use my 1/2" dewalt each time.. just confirming with you that on the primary both bolts are left hand threads and the secondary nut it regular

[@BrandoCG]

Real Talk Powersports. Yeah it’s really odd. Because I watch your videos and it looks so easy. Then I go try and it won’t even budge lol. The primary is the one closest to the front right ? And to loosen it you turn it right

[@BrandoCG]

So I put my new weights in and spring on my quad today. And now it runs hot. Is this normal or did I do something wrong while putting it in ?

[@ColdSteel1997]

will the belt come off without taking the clutch off?
