Hey guys, I just bought an 07 Rev 800. I started it up the other day and there's a squealing/squeaking noise on the clutch side. It seems like if you rev the engine up a little bit it either goes away or is covered by other sounds... I was just wondering if anyone else has had a similar noise with their 07 and if it's just a dirty clutch or if it's some kind of bearing or what you guys think could be going on.

Thanks for any help or tips

X2....Your belt is probably too tight. If you lift the track up I bet your track starts spinning pretty fast. The squeal is most likely from the primary rubbing your belt due to the lack of free play.....

I found also on my sled that if I ran a ultimax XS belt (803) it would squeel a little at low RPM, but when I ran with the 377 belt never heard a thing. I had the belt deflection adjusted just enough for the track to turn while at idle.
