After a few days of heavy rainfall I got in my Sidekick and noticed that the belt seemed to be slipping as I was making my way out on a large property. I turned around and could barely make it back to my shop. After removing the cowelling I noticed about a quart of water drained out. I dried the area, the cover and checked the belt. No signs of dammage, belt looks great and no foreign debris other than water in the area. I put it back together and there was a definite improvement. The Sidekick is driveable now but the belt still slips but only at a higher speed and only when the throttle is punched. I'm wondering whether I may have inadvertently damaged it while it was wet and have ordered a new belt. I have looked on line to see if there is a guide or procedure, specifically for the CVT belt removal and replacement for the 850 but can find none. Does anyone have experience with this?

Hello from France
I have used an old sportsman 500 for about 10 years. I’m looking to get a ranger UTV and or possibly an electronic golf cart or Polaris.
Im here to get a specific question answered and hopefully contribute.

Just received delivery of a 2024 AMP Pro. Thought I'd start a thread with my impressions as I use it and learn more. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of real-world usage information out there on this model. Hope this will help others as they research.
Intended Use Cases
Fire mitigation / slash removal from a 5 acre forested and well-gamble-oaked property. The previous owners thought as much about fire mitigation as I do about fashion: not much. Snow removal Stump pulling General hauling (rock, lumber, etc.) Weimaraner energy depletion. Wasn't an original use case, but a nice added bonus. Experiences So Far
Wasn't impressed that two of the bumpers on the underside of the bed where it sits upon the frame were missing. The metal on metal contact has damaged the powder coating and the frame. I expect a little better QC.
I've only put a few hours on it, so not a ton to report on usage. It isn't quiet; it's silent. I can't even detect an electric note from the motor. I removed (and subsequently replaced) the motor cover noticed that the motor is German and made by Schambuller. The motor controller is Italian and made by Dana TM4. Given the operating specs of both I found on the web, I suspect both are higher quality than the previous Navitas (which is supposed to be decent). The motor is rated at 25 hp and 71.5 lb-ft of torque. It feels very powerful. All the torque is delivered instantly, if desired.
The bed is huge and has an electric dump as standard. Great feature but would like it to go up a bit more. Probably not feasible from an engineering perspective, but I want and I need ;).
Power steering is nice, but vague. Probably common to many UTVs, but I am accustomed to more direct results from input. Plan early and plan often.
In our first full day of usage, we hauled about 1/2 as much slash as the entire rest of the year when I was doing it by hand cart. I may get fatter, but I'll also get more done. After a few days of usage, the battery meter has gone down by 1/10th.
Until next time...

Ok guys, my turn...
Working on my neighbors 2017 Massimo MSU-500. Initial complaint was it would start and run for about 10 minutes and the just die. He replaced the fuel pump and still had the same issue. I stopped over one day to look at it and saw that it had codes flashing on the dash; 505, 336 and 337. We decided to get a new stator/crank sensor. Took it apart installed the new stator/crank sensor and nothing. It won't even start. I checked the pins on the crank sensor plug and one was in the wrong place, so I repinned it and it still won't start. I double checked the connectors and all is good. I checked the wires from the ECU to the coil, good. It appears to have spark every once and awhile but not enough to start. I replaced the coil with a known good one and still nothing. I bought the cables and downloaded the ECU hardware and everything looks good. I pulled the timing cover back off to check the flywheel keyway, it is good. I checked the timing and timing chain, good. I checked the valve lash, good. I have to put it back together but just wanted to post in case there is something else I should check before hand. I checked the 9 pin connector and it is clean. I have battery voltage on the purple wire and pins 15 and 18 on the ECU. I pulled the air filter off and I am going to put a new plug in it just for the heck of it. What ECU inputs would prevent it from starting? Why would it now not start at all after replacing the stator/crank sensor? It has to be something simple. Any help would be appreciated.
