99 grizzly, clutch issue

[jkasinger]

My Grizzly dosn't take off like it's suppossed to,it's acting like a brake is holding it back just for a few seconds then it is fine.It has a new belt,rollers have been greased,but not over greased.And I'm sure it's not a brake because I have taken the pads and shoes off of it to see if that was the problem still does the same thing with the brakes removed.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked the internal wet clutch?

No,I didn't check that,how do ya tell if it's bad?.And also when i'm riding in high and i let off the throttle the engine brake kicks in and out.It will freewheel and then it catches.
