Aftermarket Assassins S3 Recoil Floating Clutch Kit | 2016+ General & General XP
The ultimate kit for your 2016-Up General 1000 & General XP. This clutch kit replaces your entire secondary clutch and comes with the primary weights & spring. For 2016 and newer machines, they went to a BOSS secondary clutch which is cheap and wears out extremely fast, and causes issues. The Aftermarket Assassins clutch is the Team Tied floating version built specifically for the transmission shaft of the 2016+ models. This is the same style clutch that came on the 2014-15 XP 1000s and other various higher-end models throughout the years. This clutch actually floats on the shaft, thus helping maintain alignment from idle to full shift-out. It's a great design that works very well and lasts a long time. Switching to this clutch means fewer belt/clutch issues, better clutch consistency, better belt alignment, and better performance. Depending on many factors, we normally see factory secondary clutches start to fail between 1000-2000 miles.
Aftermarket Assassin's S3 Recoil Clutch Kits pack a huge punch! No matter the terrain, they hit hard and just keep pulling for days. On the trail or at the race you'll notice wicked acceleration and instant clutch response when getting back into the throttle after hammering that corner. In the dunes, you'll see the same benefits but also have much less bogging when climbing that big dune. The machine will hold RPM so you can get where you need to go and get there faster! Going mudding? Our mud setup will help turn those tires through the thick and deep with much better RPM and wheel speed that's key to climbing out of that hole. We have a huge amount of CVT knowledge, a great passion for the sport, and spent many hours testing different setups in the real world. We know you'll be extremely pleased with the performance gain from our S3 clutch kits! The secondary clutch comes professionally set up and is ready to bolt on. It is a Team Tied floating clutch loaded with our performance helix and spring. This clutch actually floats on the shaft which helps keep it aligned from idle to full shift-out, leading to cooler belt temps and longer belt life. Kits work great with both stock or modified machines Simply a must-have when running larger tires or paddles Much faster acceleration Wicked throttle response and quicker downshifts More consistent clutch performance Clutch floats back and forth on the secondary shaft.
This ensures the clutch stays aligned with the primary clutch at all times, even under torque/power. Engine braking in the secondary clutch can be removed for more free-wheeling when off the throttle Less belt slap on the clutch cover which improves belt life and longevity Cooler running belt temps (especially when running larger tires or paddles!) Our Recoil clutch weights are easily adjustable with simple magnets. They have a custom AA profile, the BEST coating on the market (nitrocarburizing) which has increased wear resistance, improved fatigue strength, and added surface lubricity. These clutch weights also offer great performance, and the ability to tune for many different applications or modifications in the future, without the need to buy extra parts. The magnetic weights are the best option to properly place the mass where we need it on the weight for the best performance for your application. A great initial setup guideline is included which shows the best setups for dunes, mud, or all-around trail riding. This also has brief instructions on installing your clutch kit and other important information.
We offer two clutch kits: Standard Load: Meant for stock or near-stock size tires (27-30") and is the one for the fastest pace trail riders or racers. High Load: Meant for those with larger tires (31-32"), mud tires, dune riders, and those with paddles 28" or larger. Mudding and dining are considered high loads and must be clutched slightly differently. The components for our mud and dune setups (high load) are the same, but you'll notice your setup guideline for the Recoil adjustable weights will be different between those two applications. EBS (Engine Braking) Options: Keep Engine Braking: Like a factory. Most slower-pace riders (mud, crawling, or very hilly terrain) will keep the EBS in place. Remove Engine Braking: - Most faster-pace trail riders/racers or dune riders will choose to remove it.
Kits include AA Recoil magnetic adjustable clutch weights, primary spring, complete TIED floating secondary clutch (loaded with spring & AA custom cut helix), & setup guidelines/instructions. Special tools recommended for installation: primary clutch puller, Tied clutch belt removal tool, Clutching We also highly suggest our Revolver Billet Clutch Cover with Tower Lock to increase primary clutch strength and cooling.
