Hey guys. I’m looking for some input on my current setup or else options on other setups. Not overly clutch savvy. 15 162 cat with a y pipe and can, 2500 kms. I’m running the bdx proshift kit now for two seasons, engages too high and hard for my liking, I’ve tried putting the stock spring back in the primary but it didn’t change much. Also basically without usable reverse now other than to unload off the deck which has been a real annoyance from the start. The pull the sled gained in the mid to top end has been worth the other issues to me, but the last couple rides last year I wasn’t able to consistently pull rpm in the hills. I tried pulling some weight and it didn’t help much. Maybe I have some wear issues coming on? Riding around home it still pulls hard and consistently. Thanks for any input.

nearing the end of lifespan for that primary. Even with blowing out belt dust regularly, very common to have a roller seize up around 3k

I was kind of worried about that. I’ll have to keep a close eye on it. Know of any replacement primaries that are better than the stock cat one?
