⚙️ LOOKING FOR COMPLETE SECONDARY CLUTCHING? Check out our Stage 2 SNYPR Short Track Clutch Kit (SKU: 06-37-301)—which adds our custom dual-cut secondary helix and conversion rollers for maximum backshift and top-end speed gains!
SKU: 06-37-300-T
Primary Application: Polaris Indy, VR1, XCR, Pro-S, Pro-X, and Switchback Assault 850 models equipped with 1.25" to 1.6" lug tracks.
Transform the throttle response, acceleration, and shift consistency of your short-track Polaris Patriot 850 with the Bikeman Performance Stage 1 SNYPR Short Track Clutch Kit. Designed as the foundational clutching upgrade for trail and crossover riders, this kit optimizes power delivery by combining our hyper-tunable SNYPR magnetic primary weights with performance primary and secondary springs, plus our Smooth Shift Primary Teflon Washers to eliminate spring binding.
Stock clutching shifts out conservatively and suffers from belt slip and friction-induced RPM fade under repeated corner-to-corner trail pulls. The Stage 1 kit loads the 850 Patriot engine harder off engagement, locking the drive belt firmly into the sheaves to transfer maximum torque straight to the track while retaining your factory secondary helix.
Key Performance Features
- Explosive Corner-to-Corner Acceleration: Restructures primary force curves to eliminate low-end lag and deliver hard-hitting mid-range trail pull.
- SNYPR Magnetic Weight Adjustability: Infinitely tunable using magnets, set screws, and tungsten slugs right through the clutch inspection hole—no need to remove the clutch cover or compress the spring.
- Smooth Shift Primary Friction Control: Includes Smooth Shift Primary Teflon Washers to isolate spring rotation, eliminate spring bind under compression, and ensure buttery-smooth upshifts.
- Matched Trail Springs: Calibrated 120-310 primary and 140-220 secondary springs increase belt side-pressure to prevent belt slippage and hold target shift RPM.
- Direct Drop-In Foundation: Calibrated to work seamlessly with your factory OEM secondary helix—ideal for trail riders seeking a massive performance jump with simple installation.
