You have a clutch/belt problem. Pull the cover and see what you find. Might post pictures.

 

Everything looked okay visibly when I pulled the cover, is there anything I should look for? I always ride in low gear unless we are in wide open areas.

 

I try not to ride in low gear unless I'm going 20mph or under this may be your issue you could have damaged something running in low gear at higher speeds for extended period of time.

 

I live in Ohio so most of our riding is slow and technical. We have a lot of rock and tight trails but if I can open it up I always run high. I would say most of our riding is 30 and under.

 

Post several pictures of your clutches and belt. Only way we might have a clue.

 

Is your secondary spinning when at idle?

 

This is not a running in low problem. Couple things to look at is as was said check if your secondary is turning at idle. That will make it hard to shift. Another is your shift linkage. Make sure nothing is damaged, it may need adjusting. How clean are your clutches? Do you blow out the dust regularly? If not it may not be sliding in and out smoothly. When you changed the belt did you check the sheaves to make sure they are smooth and clean? My bet is it’s a clutch issue but linkage could be the problem.

 

Just had same issue with my 19 turbo s. Primary clutch was moving in and out freely. The face of the bearing was corroded up. I took some emery cloth and cleaned it up. Works like new.

 

*wasnt moving freely.

 

Ok thank you all. I blow them out after almost every ride. Here are a few pictures, not sure what to take pics of. I will reinstall and see if the secondary is spinning. From what I can tell the bearing had some dirt on it but not a bunch of rust. I am 100% unfamiliar with these clutches, so I appreciate any info!

 

Do a really good cleaning job. Start with compressed air. Then wire brush and more air. Get off all the old crud. Polish shelves with scotch brite till they shine. After clean as possible. Use a can or two of brake clean to clean everything you can. Get a new belt from Hunterworks. Keep the old as spare. The old has to be in bad shape from all the abrasive material. Get a spring compression, Hunterworks, remove the helix and clean that area very good. Inspect the wear pad for wear. Inspect the helix by running finger down the legs and feel for flat spots. Should be only one per leg. More than one, it needs replaced.

 

Watch Hunterworks videos for help.

 

Looks like you got water in there mixing with the dust. Normally just blasted air will remove the dust, yours looks like the dust is now crusted. I’d pull that whole thing apart and clean really good. Scotch bright the sheaves from the center out and make sure everything moves in and out smoothly.
Sandblster beat me, follow his advice

 

Hand wire brush to just knock off the grime.

 

The secondary clutch does not spin in park until I give it throttle. I have it jacked up, all 4 wheels off the ground. When the machine idles, the primary continues to spin and the secondary stops. I didn't try in gear because I don't want to send it through the garage door!
Any ideas?

 

I didn't see the responses until after the last post. I will clean everything up and see if it helps.
Thanks guys!

 

Take those 6 10mm bolts out of the primary cover and remove the spring and washer. You can then pull out the thin aluminum slides and check and make sure everything on the primary moves freely and doesn’t bind up.

 

Ho lee cow that stuff is dirty

 

Some good suggestions given about cleaning up everything first. However I would not recommend getting a Hunter works belt for a turbo. Polaris OEM belt is the best choice on a turbo machine.

 

Just curious did you submerge the rzr in mud? That’s really caked on dirt.

I thought i was keeping it out of the mud but the beer must have got the best of me! This one has never been submerged but it definitely has seen mud on trails

 

WOW. Could not disagree more. Love the Hunterworks belts on our turbos.

 

Even Todd has acknowledged on this forum the OEM belt is a better choice for a Turbo.

 

Think that all depends on how one uses the machine. Have seen no issues with the Hunterworks belt on our turbos.

 

I didn't realize how dirty the clutches were until I disassembled and took a wire brush to them. I cleaned everything up but I still have to rev it to get into gear the first time when it's cold. Once it catches the first time I can shift to any gear, park ect. Could it be more debris in the clutch? Just doesn't make sense why it only does it once on the first, cold startup. I replaced the belt with OEM again because I had another brand new spare. I was trying to be cautious with brake cleaner so I didn't get it somewhere it wasn't supposed to be. Is there anywhere I need to watch or just go to town?

 

If your secondary is not spinning at idle as you stated ...and all parts are now clean, then I would look deeper into the primary. The primary controls your engagement so I would start there and replace the sliders . I would also replace the wearable items in the secondary again the plastic parts or any other obvious wear items

 

Guess I'm digging in deeper! Appreciate the info, thank you

 

Try a new belt if you haven't already. Take a look at the shift cable and see if you can see anything bent or worn.

 

 

Been off for a few days and just now seeing this,I appreciate it!

 

One way to tell is pull off the cover and see if the secondary is spinning without being in gear. Also if you look at the primary, stick your cell phone camera in and look at your belt. If it is pinched on both sides your primary is hung up. If it is touching on one side or the other then the alignment is off between the two clutches. In the pic below it is OK but riding a little closer to the inboard side. Not enough to make the secondary spin in park. I would also try a new belt if you haven't already.
