Performance of all-terrain vehicles and utility terrain vehicles is largely dependent on the set-up of the clutch system of the vehicle. Factory-fitted original clutches are calibrated for the standard factory-fitted tyres and suspension and for universal use of the vehicle. If you wish to use your vehicle on more specific occasions or in more demanding conditions, such as for complicated farming or gardening works or for towing or carrying heavier loads, or you want to use oversize wheels and tyres for better off-road capabilities or even go racing, then your vehicle’s clutch system needs a different set-up, to match the use of the vehicle.
For these purposes, we have developed and offered 2 different types of clutch kits.
To find the right clutch kit for your ATV or UTV, visit our store or contact a regional dealer.
