  1. Wildcat General Discussion
    Hi guys, so I just purchased a 2012 Wildcat 1000 a week ago. First ride I took it on I was cruising 50mph down the gravel road. Then the belt broke, it was insanely hot in the clutch area when I took the cover off. The drive clutch is in really bad shape and needs replacing. But I can’t find...
  2. Wildcat General Discussion
    Hi everyone. I have a 2013 Wildcat 1000HO. I'm going through belts like crazy. About one every 50-100 miles. The previous owner never did any maintenance or cleaning on the machine. After cleaning roughly 100lbs of mud out of the machine, I started researching how to's. I have tried the...

    Hey everyone. I'm new to the forum. I built a belt temperature gauge that measure ACTUAL belt temperature, not just the clutch air temperature. I've got a TON of data on belts, temps, and how they correlate to belt life. If you've got any questions or you are blowing through belts all the...
  5. Wildcat X
    I have a WildCat X since December 2013 and in recent days only 72.1 hours of use and marking the odometer 2637 km without reaching the 100 km / hr in past days shattered the pulley inside the main gear and I would like to know if anyone can guide me as this is likely to happen and they advise me...
  6. Issues and Resolutions
    Hey guys, I have a 2012 wildcat 1000 and was curious if my clutch was going out or if my belt was crappy. When I put it in high and give it gas, it acts like it revs up more then it should (it still starts rolling forward but slowly) then it feels like it catches and then goes like it normally...
  7. Issues and Resolutions
    I took my X out for a day-long adventure on Saturday with just over 1200 miles on the original belt. I have a UTV inc. belt cooler and haven't had any issues until now. I approached a particularly gnarly trail option (one I've done before) and got about half way through it and lost momentum...
  8. Issues and Resolutions
    When I put it in gear it won't click in until I accelerate, and if I climb a hill it pops out of gear and grinds. Clutch I assume?
  9. Issues and Resolutions
    Seems like every time I go out ridding for more then 30 min I rip a belt. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm on 29.5 terminators and just basic trail riding ... Very little mudding. Also my gas peddle is very hard. Any mechanics in the Houston area?

    AC must no people are burning up belts. Why no updates on new machines ??????????????
  11. Wildcat 4
    Thanks for taking time to read through this. We purchased a WC4 in April. We live in Central Florida. We do mostly gravel/sand trail riding. Not the suck you tire spinning sand but the cruise along with no effort at 20 to 30 mph sand. Also a little mud but again not mud up to the floor...
  12. Wildcat 4
    I pulled my cover today to check the belt after only one weekend out. Belt looks great. Decided to drill some holes in the cover while it was off. I took pretty easy on the cat. I alternated between 2 and 4 wheel drive and low and high range. 6.8 hours and only 61 miles.

  14. Wildcat General Discussion
    Folks, i bough my cat at the end of October this year and drove the 1st 150 miles in the desert/mountains. Awesome riding, other then blowing stock tires left and right. Since Veterans day my wife and I have been at Buttercup in the Imperial Sand Dunes. After the 1st 50 miles of hard riding...
  15. Issues and Resolutions
    At 477 miles I had my first breakdown. It was in the sand dunes at Silver Lake MI. It was the fourth day that we were in the sand dunes and the kids came back on foot. I knew it was trouble but they were walking so I was okay with it. I picked them up on the flats where the belt let go...
