That’s because you should have put a TAV II 30 series CVT on it instead. A centrifugal clutch will never lockup and burn up in a few minutes.

Make sure you get a Genuine Comet Belt also!!

As suggested by Denny, isn't going to move without one. Often times called a torque converter. You can buy them on line for about $60 to $70. Regardless of brand they are all made in China, and work quite well. It will solve your problem.

Exactly right. You can get USA made genuine Comet units for $200-$300. But they are unnecessary.

The 30 series secret weapons that are most underutilized IMO are 7” driven unit and the 8T jackshaft sprocket for all the torques. Many people don’t like the little 8T sprocket because it wears chains faster.
