Feeling up shift at low speed

plio7 · Jan 4, 2016

K guys I have a question. Just had my machine serviced and was noticing this weekend that when cruising and low steady speed I can feel the sled up shift. At first I thought it was a bog or hesitation but tested it a few times on the lake and you can feel the clutch up shift and the rpms drop. Doesn't seem to effect anything performance wise when riding normal only at slow cruise.
Anything I should be worried about?

Paranoia.

Maybe so I've just never felt it before. Was always very smooth. This is like a jerk, or hesitation as it shifts. Was a simple question that's all

If your worried pull the secondary clean and inspect.

Verify belt height first off.

I have little idea on your mech skills so please don't feel offended on my suggestion, but take a good look through your drivetrain..make sure nothing is sticking, binding, etc.....coming back from service who knows what could have been touched.

Everything looks normal. And clutches were part of the service done. Not so much worried as wondering if it's normal, if other people have noticed this at low rpm/speed. Like I said just the first time I've ever felt it on this sled or by others for that matter

Check your belt deflection. Too loose of a belt can cause this.

Mine does exactly the same thing but it's been rode hard and put away wet a few times since I cleaned clutches.
