I have a couple of questions I hope someone can answer. I have been recently experiencing some belt slip. I have done a few things to my ATV in the same time frame. First off the belt has never been changed, 1750 miles on the original belt. I put on new 25” Mud Lite XL tires, same size as the original tires, but much more aggressive. I have also put on an EPI Clutch kit. It all started when I put the clutch kit on. I was setting the spring at different setting and then riding without the cover on in the snow and climbing a snow hill repeatedly after each adjustment. I know that snow sprayed directly onto the clutch from the tires and started to slip. Ever since then, a month or two later I have been getting belt slip. Did I glaze the belt when it was wet and slipping? I know the belt is old and should probably be changed but I was wondering if there may be other issues?
