Lookin good!

I can take some pics for you of the suspension, just let me know what you need.

Cool, my project Oddy is coming together just waiting for some parts, should have it running in a few weeks. I'll keep you updated.

Looking good! Is that the regular fl250 secondary spring in there or did you swap it for another type?

Yes I have seen that video before, from what it looks like he uses the stock Ody belt and spaced the Arctic Cat Primary to take a smaller belt. So he actually adjusted the primary to use a smaller belt so it would probably engage better with a narrower belt, and maybe he put a softer primary...

Swwweeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttttt! How did the secondary work?

Your wider belt looks great! When will it be ready for a test drive?

Yeah I noticed the setup is a bit different in the yellow buggy must have to do with the rear independent suspension setup. Let me know how the new clutch works once you get around to testing it out. Thanks for all the help!

Yes you got me thinking now too, I may try it with just the spacer between the plates, and use a black sharpie to see how far the belt rides on the clutch plates when they engage. Based on what I can see the clutch should be able to open enough as is so maybe we are just over thinking it and we...

I like that yellow one, pretty cool how it has the rear suspension... Yeah I think either way will work for us, I'm using 2 spacers, one between the clutch sides, then another on the end of the shaft which will move the cam away from the clutch, by doing this the spring should stay the same...

That sounds about right 3/16, I think I am going to try it with the spacer idea first if it doesn't seem to work then I can always trim the material off the cam.

I was looking at it closer today and that will remove a fair chunk of its metal. I was thinking I might fabricate up a spacer like in the diagram below. This means just the bolt/large washer will hold the cam in place and the snap ring is no longer used, by eliminating the snap ring the cam...

Yeah I saw the buttons on ebay too.

Was able to get the cam pulled off, had to use a puller there was 3 holes drilled in mine so just tapped them out and used a puller and the impact, worked well. I am going to need to get new buttons for the cam and maybe a spring, probably could use it since it is 30 years old haha Where did...

Front shocks are off an 88 Yamaha YFM 350 quad, had to make different mounts on the J arms and the frame so they would fit as the eyes are wider... The drive clutch on the Polaris engine can be changed by adding a stiffer spring or different weights, will have to do that once I get the wider...
