Back in about December of 2019, before the Chinese sent over the terrible coronavirus, I was searching on EBAY for some UTV parts when I came across this new primary clutch that would fit the Polaris XP1000.
The deal made it look irresistible – they looked great and it was made out of metal. It touted ride ready… just buy it, and bolt it on, and go have fun!
The best deal of all was the price tag! $269.00 I can fix my Polaris clutch problem for $269.00! I knew Polaris was ripping us off for $750.00 those $#@@%&.
When I first saw the primary clutch for sale, my thought was how many people were going to purchase these clutches and then find out the expensive, hard way, how is a Chinese made clutch going to hold up under the demands of what an XP 1000 puts on them.
I had in my mind they would never work correctly and would probably have problems within 6-months.
Boy was I so wrong!!
A recommended customer, let’s call him Ted, brought his XP 1000 into the shop. He had been one of the victims of this Chinese look alike Polaris clutch.
Ted’s UTV was a 2014 Polaris XP 1000 4-seat – a real nice side x side with all the add-ons. His original primary clutch had gotten to the point where it needed replacing. Don’t worry – if you own a side x side long enough, you will eventually need clutch work or replacement also.
Ted saw the aftermarket clutch on the internet and purchased it along with a new belt, then installed it and he was ready to go ride and break the belt in.
Ted headed to the west desert to ride and planned on taking it fairly easy on his new belt, running at different speeds and not taking it much above 30 mph on easy dirt roads.
Ted’s new clutch did not last 20 miles before all the weights and cover jumped out of position and ruined the clutch itself. After removing the clutch cover on the trail and seeing there were major problems with the brand- new Chinese Polaris clutch, it was time to figure out how to get it towed back to the trailer.

Now it was time to get the RZR clutches fixed properly, with a brand- new Polaris primary clutch along with an SLP high load 4500 + altitude kit. When you add up all these parts it does get expensive, but if properly serviced and maintained, with a belt that is broken in, it should last a good number of miles.
Here is the problem – if Ted cannot get his money back for the Chinese paperweight, he could have had $267.00 going toward the proper fix, instead of flushing it back to China along with the virus.
Chinese parts have come a long way in the past. But I have found that the most expensive parts and tools that you need to work properly can and will cost you lots of money, just to find out the Chinese parts don’t work at all.
There are no savings if you have to throw the first part in the garbage can, and it stopped your outdoor riding trip immediately along with the problem of getting it back to the trailer and loading it up.
The reason behind this story is… don’t be fooled by fool’s gold! We are all looking to save money, but again, this type of problem costs you a lot more money and aggravations than you expected.
If you would like or need some clutch service or repair, please give us a call or email. I will get you in to give you a complete estimate of what it will take to get your clutching needs, so you will have lots more uninterrupted rides.
Until we ride again… be safe and don’t be fooled by the Chinese parts or virus.

The ATV clutch is responsible for shifting gears, as well as damping vibrations while riding. But if the element is worn out, the rider will face a number of problems: jerking, slipping, etc. In this case, the component will have to be changed. Therefore, let's figure out how to replace the clutch and when to do it.
The movement of the ATV is directly dependent on the condition of the clutch. And even if you were able to buy a quality ATV, it is recommended to check this unit every 6-7 thousand km. But improper operation of equipment or overloading can “kill” the mechanism even earlier. If the device crashes, you will notice that:
All these problems can be solved by repairing or replacing the ATV clutch.
Note: Please note that the assembly of many Chinese ATVs leaves much to be desired. Therefore, after buying a quadric, you should check how the clutch is installed. If the nut on the mechanism is not fully tightened, you will hear a rumble in the CVT area while driving.
How to remove and install a new clutch on a children's ATV depends on the model of the device. For example, on some models, the chain reducer is covered with plastic parts (footboard, etc.). In this case, the master needs to dismantle all interfering elements.
To replace the clutch you need:
The procedure is quite simple, but the design features of the ATV can make it a little more difficult. For example, in order to remove the mechanism from a teenage all-terrain vehicle, you need to dismantle the gearbox cover, unscrew a few screws, unscrew the nut, remove the washer and remove the clamp. Before changing the clutch on an ATV, study the documentation for the device.
It should be said right away that replacing the clutch on an ATV with a CVT is a little different from servicing children's or teenage vehicles. And the thing is that in order to complete the procedure, the rider will have to dismantle the transmission. Because the quad's clutch is hidden behind the CVT, the rider needs to:
This will give you access to the quadric clutch. Then you just have to unscrew the central bolt, loosen and get the mechanism. After that, you need to install a new component, tighten the nut and assemble the variator.
In fact, even Chinese mechanisms have a significant service life. Therefore, the main reason why the clutch on an ATV burns out is the improper use of technology. Component lifespan reduces:
If you "spare" the clutch, the resource of the mechanism will last even for 10 thousand km.

Children's ATV, like any vehicle, requires timely maintenance and operation in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Otherwise, you may encounter a number of malfunctions.
Sometimes the clutch on a children's quad bike fails. This often happens due to wear and tear. If the first signs of clutch failure appear on a 125 cc children's ATV or a different size motor, replace it immediately. All-terrain vehicles of the Dvako Moto online store optimally combine low price and high quality. You can buy a children's quad bike from us from 10 years old, repair an old four-wheeler or carry out its maintenance.
If the clutch on a child's gasoline ATV has failed, it could be due to high load, carrying heavy loads, or riding too aggressively. Sometimes the incorrect running-in of a new four-wheeled vehicle leads to rapid wear of the presented assembly. If the mileage of the ATV is high, the clutch parts will wear out, which will also lead to failure. It is important to monitor the condition of the pads and change them as they wear out. If the following symptoms appear, replace the adjustable clutch on your child ATV:
If the listed symptoms appear, the vehicle must not be operated until the malfunction is corrected. It is necessary to measure the thickness of the pads, which should be more than 1 mm. Otherwise, you need to replace the clutch on the children's ATV 49ss or with a larger motor.
To replace the centrifugal clutch on a child ATV, unscrew the drum with a hex key. It is attached with 4 bolts (the chain does not need to be removed).
