I have a 2015 kymco 450I side by side with only 800 miles. I use it to plow snow and pull a manure spreader. Yes in low.  Last night it started making a loud chatter in the engine area and shut off. Couldn't change the gear selector unless it was while turning the ignition. Pulled the belt/clutch cover off and everything was in ok shape. Took the whole assembly off and it still chatters. Looks like the splined rod towards the rear of the engine is starting and stopping in its own and that's where that noise is coming from.  Is that part of the clutch and do I need to pull that too???  Don't know how deep to dig. And where to get these parts.

Hi guys. Update on the Kymco issue. After getting zero help from the dealer i was able to figure out through pictures that this machine crossed with a 2015 Artic cat 450 snow mobile. Ebay had the parts. Fit perfect.  Clutch was worn down pretty good. Probably from pulling heavy stuff. Hope this helps anyone with this problem.

      Which is the best oil to use ?
      By Prepper
      I have been doing a little research on which engine oil is best for UTV engines.  There seems to be some disagreement over using a good quality regular engine oil, and the necessity of using "M2" (or wet clutch suitable) oil.  My understanding is the "wet clutch" suitable oil has less friction reduction properties (hence a more responsive clutch with less slippage).  While less friction reduction properties would seem to be better for the wet clutch... it would not be best for the internal engine parts like camshaft bearings and other moving parts where friction is detrimental and would lead to premature failure.  Some folks swear you need M2 oil, while others say they have been using regular motor oil for years and their clutch is just fine.  Could they both be right ???
      Any thoughts ?

      Oil change
      By Joe Breaux
      Decided to do an oil change on the Massimo ...drained oil, screen was very clean even tho oil wasn't.  Then went to remove old filter.. holy crap ..I tried every tool I have, could not budge it..Went to store and got one of the end cap type..fit nice and tight, put a 1/2 in drive ratchet on it..nope..not moving.  Put a 18 on breaker bar o. It. The inside of the removal tool broke off!!  Had to weld it back together. Put a pipe on the bar for more leverage.  Finally broke it loose..
      I have never seen a filter in my 55 yrs of working on engines so tight..And i was the one who put it on 2 yrs ago.  JUST HAND TIGHT!

      2020 Tracker 800 sx front end noise
      By Karlibob
      I have a 2020 800 sx with about 16 hours on it.  From day one I have heard a clunking noise from the front end going over bumps.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Also this past weekend while out riding I heard a noise that sounded like the dump bed bounced three or four different times, again has anyone experienced anything like that.  Thanks, gary

      Just bought a 2014 Volunteer. Can anyone tell me what parts have to come off to change the oil and filter. I can see them but I can't figure out how to access them. Thank You
