recently bought a 2011 freeride. Has more of a vibration at idle than my 08. Swaped clutches today and the vibration was less. I pulled the vibrating clutch apart and can't see anything wrong with it.. all 3 set screws are still in there.
If I increased the rpms off idle the vibration would smooth out. The vibration is actually visable at idle as the clutch is shaking crank.
So.. any idea how to fix this? I wonder if the freeride idle speed is a critical resosance rpm for the clutch. I am worried the vibrating will fatigue the crank.
My 08 clutch was just rebuilt this season with 417 ramps, oversized rollers and all new bushings to the 09 specs. Also replaced the spring. Is there much different in the ETEC clutching? Maybe just swap em. The ETEC idles at about 1000rpm.. the pteck was close to 2500 which smoothed out the vib on the etec clutch.
any suggestions?
