I’m actually running 2 of these PB80 clutches. 1 on a zr7000 1049 triple 4 stroke and the other on a xf9000 998 turbo. I will say they have been smooth as silk. They really preform and have been completely trouble free!

Based on watching you put the CV clutch in white night two years ago I bought one for my '11 crossfire 800. I love it! no more spinning the track on the trailer with the "rough" engagement. Easy to adjust, but came pre-set to my specific sled, bounced up and down but came back to how they sent it to me. Couldn't be happier, thank you for leading me to it!

CVTech has been used for a long time in Québec on trail sleds and everyone love them. Glad to see it has been good for you too!

My dad had just put one on his m1000 before a trip to island park and you are spot on. The engagement is crazy going from post and fly weights. It’s literally buttery smooth and the clutch worked great!

Hey Matt awesome review on the cvtech primary.. I’m currently thinking about doing an install on my xf1100 2stage turbo..love the videos of you and the gang rippin keep it up

Great video Matt, my m1100 is in the shop right now getting the clutch fixed again.

Excellent video! Thank you

Those new polaris's been blowing up clutches left and right. Im on my second clutch on ole 2012 proclimb so I know the struggle.

Installed the PB80 on my Bearcat Z1 XT, very impressed with it.

awesome. I put one on an 1160 cat twin and it worked very well. I would suggest a stiffer spring and leave the weights. Its nice to get more weight on those Suzuki 800s they like it.

Interesting clutch there. I have a few cats one is a 2010 ext Z1 turbo with 300 hp tune. I run it on the 240 tune mostly though. Blew belts like crazy at first. Had to cut about 1/4 inch off back side of secondary to align clutches. Now it runs flawlessly had to do my own clutching. Use to clunk really bad so i put a 125-340 I believe spring rate in the primary. Anyway no more clunk engagement clutching is probably about perfect. Might try that that cvt tech clutch. Have a stm secondary already to try. Stm primary is lot of money so idk. But anyhow great video Thank u

love the vids, you should bring back the trikes🤣🤘

You can also fine tune one of those shim weights with a drill bit, say if you find that taking one out is too light but put it back in and its too heavy. Can make a differece with just a little taken out.

the best clutch out there... !!!!!! have one with 4500ish km on it.

I am still running the AC clutch, changed spring to a Dalton Blue Grey spring and it has changed the wear and tear on Cat clutch. Now had nice engagement like a Team clutch. No wear on rollers or weights. $35 fix

I put one on my rzr. Works awesome

Matt I wanted to ask your expertise on something. I just ordered my son a 24 arctic cat blast M4000. What upgrades should I be doing to that alpha rail to make sure this sled lasts through my kids growing up? Thanks for your help. Love your crew and content you guys are awesome!

Helpful vid. Been looking to buy a CVtech for my 2012 m8. Can’t find one.Any tips would be appreciated

Hey Matt, you should def go back to your prev intro song! Gets a guy way more into it!!!!!

Awesome seems like a great clutch really sucks you get so little out of arctic clutch

First of all I will say I really enjoy watching your videos they're very informative. I have a question for you if you are able to help me? I recently just put a power block 80 clutch on my son's 2013 Arctic Cat 800. I kind of just based it off of what you were doing because I'm tired of buying cat clutches LOL. I need some assistance if you can give it to me regarding you the weights that you used. His sled came with 67's originally on the factory clutch. The power block comes with 12 weights and they are telling me they are 5.5 Oz per weight which would give me 66 total. The most we can get out of it right now is 7400 RPM. I know by watching your video I believe that you ended up with 10 weights which would give you 55 Oz. And you were topping out at 8150 RPM. I just wondered if you stayed with that weight ratio and how it worked for you since you're sledding his letter almost identical. We live in Kamloops and we are usually riding around 5,000 to 8,000 elevation. Thank you

Just got mine 2 weeks ago love it but I have a good question 🤔 how do you put a rope on the clutch to start it if pull cord and or electric start is broken???? 🤔

put one on the other day got 3 rides on it and under heavy back shifting cause my secondary bolt to back out...not to sure whats going on maybe its more secondary but i've red lock tighten my secondary bolt in and will still do it. Last time it happened i helied my sled and and now need a secondary and jack shaft(stripped the splines)

Thinking about getting one for my doo the p drive looks complicated as fuck and this clutch looks tuff as heck and the simplicity and tunnig ease

Does anyone know if CV Tech makes a PB clutch for the newer Team primary's with the idle bearing on the stationary sleeve?

Thanks for this video i want to change mine out on the 14 snow pro 8000 but wasnt sure which one it was.. does it come with instuctions on how much weight to put in for the altitude you ride in ?

Hey all , and Mr Syxxes..... Any one had the rubber attached to the cover come apart and parts of it come out? Found pieces in the belly pan and finally figured out where they came from. Only 200 miles on it. Sure it would cause an out of balance condition and probably do the crank bearing no good. The little screws on the cover hold a rubber dampener or something to the cover at the base. Has this been a problem? Tightened down to tight at the factory? What is the purpose of the rubber?

I just put one on my older ZR 600 and what a difference. I did find out that my clutch was calibrated heavy when I installed it too. I plan on putting one on my 18’ XF 8 to smooth out the bottom end between 0-25mph. I plan on making a few videos on this clutch too.

I talked with Matt from MCB performance about the PB-80 on my T-cat and he said they have more that a few with tunes and they have been fine. He also said its a great clutch, its quiet, it runs cool, but don't ever take your side panel off because its as ugly as sin when your buddies ask why your sled is running so great.

I don't know how the PB80s are on the Cats but on the Ski Doo 4 strokes, I know they are hard on belts, they build up alot of heat. Easy maintenance and a good shifting clutch but many people replace the belts every year just as a preemptive maintenance

If your blowing belts then maybe try to add some weight to the primary, my guess is they are running hot. Also make sure alignment and deflection is correct.

What’s your opinion on the pre 2016 arctic cat clutches? Can’t get a cv tech clutch for 2014 El Tigré 6000. Is it worth getting a clutch kit for these old bricks?

Ordered a catalyst M today

I see them available on Ebay from Motorhead zone. Not sure what they mean by precalibrated. Are they just doing weights or maybe a spring??? Have a question in to them. '10 M8 HCR 153" 3-6K elevation.

Ordered one for 800 pro rmk to try

hi Matt nice video i have a 2014 sno pro 500 cat will this cvtech fit and if i buy one does it come balanced?

First 🤘🏼

If only they could produce enough to meet demand. My buddy has been trying to find one for over a year for his m8000

I waited all summer two years ago, just kept checking stock levels and jumped on it when they had one...worth the wait! have 2K miles on since I bought it, working just as good as the first time I hit the loud flapper after install.

​@@matthewlochmann9765привет Мэтт. Сколько на сегодняшний день прошёл миль, твой PB 80?

Does this clutch move in and out without spring tension? I just bought a 2015 skidoo summit with one of these clutches on it. The sheaves go back-and-forth with the belt off by hand.

Hello, so when you first installed the PB80 did you use the same alignment bar and specs from Arctic Cat?

Do you know if cvtech has a clutch for the ctec2 with that roller bearing on the inner shaft?

Anybody running this clutch, did it solve the problem of the sled in reverse ? I have a 2013 F800RR when I put the sled into reverse it binds up the only way it works is to get off the sled. I did a Google search and it seems like a pretty common problem with this sled .

Have this clutch in my 2013 F800 TH and love it. Why not remove the ring weight for a lighter clutch and quicker response?

@SuperBigdanno

Quite possible that is on the clutch to help with crankshaft harmonics.

@@SuperBigdanno I thought that as well but CV Tech said it was not required and just adds rotational weight.

Skidoo issues right now r crazy chain case

what clutching do you have one the alpha?

Will the Powerbloc clutch fit the new AC Catalyst..?

What spring are you running and what rpm does it engage at?

where can I get a primary clutch for a 2007 skidoo summit x

How much power can that clutch Handel? Can I install something like that on my 300hp turbo? 2016zr9000? I’m always worried about the primary I hear of them exploding in messing peoples feet up. :(

they really only say they will go to around 280-290 hp over that TAPP or SMT would be the go to

My PB80 seems to run hot, it would burn your hand to touch it after about ten minutes 20 minutes of riding.

Add some weight or a lighter spring. This is of course as long as all other components in the sled are all good.

Fact…a PB80 on a skidoo 850 will shatter the spring cup if ur running 6500-7500rpm routinely…cost me a 185$ taxi ride

You busted a belt a week before this video ? Clutch not good then or aligned. Should not be busting belts

Best upgrade to give a arctic cat is to trade it in for a skidoo 😁
