Not running a clutch cover on your Xp1000?

[TruckinRZR]

I can tell you it's not a good idea to run without a cover on your 1000, Even in sand. I just replaced my primary! If you have a XP1000 4 seat and you blow a belt, Take the shredded belt and machine to your Polaris dealer and they will give you the 2015 Clutch cover upgrade for free.

I never understood why people would leave them off.

Tim says it makes the clutch run much cooler.

[Todd Johnson]

I can see it running cooler but even in the sand it has to wear stuff out. Sand is sand paper with out the paper.

According to a temperature gun you will drop the temp about 60 degrees. . But obviously had its down side :(

Don't they make blower kits for the belts on the 1000's .

alba and a few others have kits or you can make your own all they are is boat bilge blowers

Polaris now sells the cover etc for the 2015 which is suppose to help .

So I got the alba temp gauge and blowhole from zbros installed. Went riding this weekend in 70* weather and temp never got above 120. Guess will have to wait until it gets a little warmer out to see how high my temps get

I have never ran mine. No issue what so ever, but I avoid water like the plague haha

I run in the mud a lot so I don't think it would be good for me to leave the cover off .

I made up my own blower set up..purchase the blower from the local boat shop and gauge from alba..helps keep her cool trimendiously

How-ever I feel it is a factory defect. They designed the machine to run short belts

All these ways to keep belts cooler is a great idea

A lot longer belt would stay cooler and last longer as well, but that would entail a-lotta work

Lol you better keep yours on!!

I put the 2015 cover on mine and still have issues with the belt getting hot. The fan sounds like a great idea.
