Went for a ride yesterday in my Wolverine after work. Has our coated sheave, 18 gr weights, gold spring and wet clutch slug kit.
Had some sound attenuating ear buds in listening to music as I went, really just went for a ride but started noticing something different
I had removed the power commander from it, as the one I was testing was not the actual unit that will come on the wolverine, the harness was too short.
Anyway what I noticed was it was really easy to get to 57mph, that is where my limiter is hitting now, yeah it is only 2mph gain but that is not my point. I was able to do that so easily and hold it just over half throttle. Once I get the right PCV I will put it back on and get what I was getting in testing, 58-60
With the stock clutching in there it would labor to get there and stay.
So I starting playing with it and really noticed throttle response was crisper with this set up as well.
Not sure if it was in my mind or not but just seemed smoother too, hopefully that was the coating we are using in the sheaves.
Did some high speed runs on a curvy and hilly dirt road near here I used to take my racing XP 900 on and I really had a good time. Had my 25gal sprayer in the rear so I couldn't get too wild but it was fun none the less
The more I drive this machine the more I like, I really think we are going to keep this one to use around here and hunt on. Our 08 rhino is getting long in the tooth and this is so much better to ride.
Just thought I would share my own feedback
