Has anyone heard about a possible update to the secondary clutch on 13 models?

Not an update that won't cost money... rumor has it Cat may have a service kit available for the 13's mid July, but it will be a user pay deal. I installed a Team Tied at the start of the season and am still on the factory belt (1100T) with over 600 miles of hard riding... good luck on the "update" from A/C.

Any noise from your secondary like someone else on here wrote about?

It is noisy, but i've not found any worn or broken parts - I suspect it is the design itself. Because the sheaves don't twist open like a torsional secondary, and it doesn't use the spring tension of a compression sytle secondary, they have to allow movement for the rollers when using reverse. The noise isn't bad - sounds a lot better then a destroyed chain...

New Vespel bushings and helix bolts, venting kit. This is stage one for belt blowers. There will be other stages for those that continue to have issues. If your boosted they will have other options to deal with the high HP, but I suspect those peeps will have to pay something out of pocket.

Should be a letter coming in the mail.
