I have 650 miles on my sidewinder xtx-se 141, it has 21/41 gearing. On good trails today I could only pull 100 MPH max(speedo) , my rpm was at 8800, and my belt shredded. Clutches were very hot, almost seems like it isn't shifting completely out for top end. The track is 141X1.6" so I'm not expecting to get the same speeds as the shorter track versions. Should I be maxed out at 99-100 mph ?Any input would be appreciated !

New rollers? My sled is a ltx and I blew a belt the exact same way. I then put the cat rollers in and changed the secondary spring position. I got a bit more top end. But the shift felt better and the clutches where cool.

What did you wrap your secondary at?
Add the same experience last Saturday. What a mess...
I put cat roller and put the secondary from 3-3 to 6-1 to get higher rpm

Nice to see you made it over here Martin. There is lots of info on here about the belt issues. I feel this issue will get solved and we can put it to rest. Shagman, NOS-Pro and Dalton Ind. I would follow.

I still have it wrapped at 6-1. I've seen like 115 mph. No marks on the spring. Clutches had a bit of brown on them in one spot.Joe,you still running stock secondary spring,and you now have it wrapped at?60% 70%
