99 Vmax clicking feel when riding - Snowmobile Forum: Your #1 Snowmobile Forum

I have a 99 VMax 500 and someone stuck the sled and tried to power it out of the deep snow. Now when you take off you feel this click click click until it goes over 5 MPH.

Today someone used my 97 Polaris and didn't break the track free from the frozen ground and after a few seconds of throttle realized and picked up the back end and now it is doing the same thing until 5 mph or so.

Any ideas?

You can't hear a click but you can feel it.

I think i know exactly your issue. Its a burnt spot on the belt. Everytine it goes around it lags at that spot. Mine did the same last year. Replace your belt and clean the burnt on rubber off your primary clutch with a green scotch brite pad or 220+ grit sandpaper. Hop this helps!
