MXU / Kymco MXU 450 Overheating CVT
« on: May 24, 2021, 11:56:20 AM »
Hello
I have an Arctic cat 450, same components as Kymco MXU 450, and have a problem of overheating.
Short overview what has happened:
Mileage 550miles
Removed the limiter (before it went 40mph now about 55mph)
After that about 30 miles the belt broke.
Replaced the belt with sliders and rollers.
Went for a 20mile ride and CVT overheated so the rollers and sliders broke.
Cleaned everything in the cooling system and Now put in new sliders and rollers and it still gets very hot. Compared to my friends Maxxer 450 mine is much hotter. Im afraid that its gonna break the rollers and sliders once again.
The only piece I'm missing is 23201-PWB1-900, spacer fixed drive, arrow on the picture. I just ordered that. I don't think thats the overheating problem since of the CVT is very tightly held in place.
Any solutions or suggestions?
