@@DIGIT9 Negative on both, am just there at least 3 times a month and they treat me well so I pass on the good word in hope I continue getting good service. I am in contact with the owner because he has a machine I want to buy but no way affiliated with them otherwise. I do however have their 2020 parts catalogue (Usually dealer only) and am surfing it usually weekly for personal parts so depending on the Face book groups you're in you'll also see me giving out parts numbers etc just to help guys out, I love the sport and enjoy keeping guys into the sport!

How to tell if your primary clutch is worn out... hmm If it has fly weights and rollers and has over 500km it is worn out. Its that simple. Only exception may be skidoo tra but they doo ware out too.
