If your ride down the UTV/ATV trails requires  extra antifreeze ,battery jumper  cables and a tow  rope .... you could own a MASSIMO

Is this your version of "you might be a redneck if"?

[Joe Breaux]

as Jeff Foxworthy says... If going to the bathroom at 2AM requires SHOES AND A FLASHLIGHT.....  you might  be a redneck... ....... I would apologize to rednecks, but I know they are not so thin-skinned as to be offended by humor

I are a proud redneck!!! Lol. At least, I used to be. Grew up in a very small town in the foothills of the Appalachians. You know, 1 leg shorter than the other, etc.

I hope you get to the bottom of the problem with your UTV.

well, with motor cover off,  riding in the bed, theres so much noise going down the trail that I cant hear the whining  ,so I cant isolate it with a hose .. Put cover back on, theres the whine again... I give up.. let it break.. Then I will know what it was... but it is still running very well.. new adjustable temp fan control switch working good. engine stays cool

noise still there, but damn thing is running great..  no issues ...new adjustable temp fan control works perfectly..   temp is in a safe range all the time now.   . hopefully it will continue

I've got 6.5HP briggs mower with a connecting rod chirp/rattle. It's been doing that for 7 or 8 years. Some times stuff will make noise and never break.. Then something that sounds good breaks just like that.

The words...NEVER BREAK...and Masimo .....were NEVER said in the same sentence ... ever

Not sure if this is along the same lines but hoping someone can answer. I have the 2017 MSU utv 500 and with moving shifter with ease I get nothing on the indicator as if nothings changing. Also as far as the indicator says it’s stuck in H and when trying to drive it revs high barley budges like it wants to go but doesn’t. Can anyone help with a solution? Adjusted the linkage and took it apart to check the teeth and everything looked fine on it. Also took the cover off to see the clutch and belt but without fully taking everything apart the only thing I noticed was the belt seemed to big to sit in the groove properly and rubbed on the cover. But doubt that is the problem so any help or ideas much appreciated, thank you!

what kind of oil are you using?  Only oil approved for wet clutches can be used.. Any oil with friction modifiers will smoke your clutch quickly
