I need to correct some miss information I’ve been giving! I had confused the dry lube used in a greaseless set up as a form on tinkseal and it is NOT! Tinkseal is applied just like Yamaha’s ultramatic grease and protects just like the grease but with better lubrication properties and longevity. I have used that in the past with no negative results and again was thinking the dry lube was a form of tink seal as well. It’s the Dry lube that has cause belt slippage in the past for me and not the Tinkseal. I apologize for giving the miss information!
I have 2019 x4 with 7,000 miles! Running 30in carnivores. Cvt hasn’t been touched. Never serviced. Original belt and wheel bearings. Yamaha is my brand
Jason: @ 13:00 you're completely confusing Tinkseal with greaseless. The two are NOT the same. You're confusing a greaseless primary with a dry lube coating with one serviced with Tinkseal, which is filled just like a primary filled with Ultramatic grease. HORDES of guys using Tinkseal in their primary on Wolverine Forums testify its superiority to Ultramatic grease. YOU DO NOT BLOW OUT A PRIMARY filled with Tinkseal!
You’re 100% right! I am getting the two confused! I was thinking the dry lube was also a form of Tinkseal cause I never saw anything that said otherwise but stand corrected. That’s good to know and I apologize for giving miss information!
I pinned a comment to correct my miss information 😊
@@AppalachianMountainRiders Well they both have ceramic-based nano lubricants in common and I understand how one could get confused, but admitting the mistake makes it all good and I know it wasn't intentional ;)
I just serviced mine at 1250. I had one sheave with a pretty big flat spot. The rest had tiny/minut flat spots. Not too bad of a job. And it was the first time I've ever had one apart.
Performance part you installed has a more aggressive ramp on it. Looks taller then the other side by side. I’m thinking about getting one now.
yes, definitely has more of an aggressive ramp.
Where do you get this sheave? Still like it? Did it make a noticeable difference?
@@imbatman9176 JBS is the manufacturer and coast roughly 300$
I would enjoy seeing you do a step by step. My rmax2 isn't far from needing service.
Watch massive Overkill's videos. There are like 10 of them on Yamaha cat clutch service.
Those were the videos I was referring too…😁
I wish someone showed how they got the secondary in. What did you do to get it to seat all the way back on the shaft?? Help. LoL
Another great video. Always watching
Hey there buddy, anyway you can.do.a how to replace the belt video on the 2019 Wolverine x4 se
I have 2800 miles on my 21 Wolverine X4 and I haven’t touched the CVT yet….😨
Guess I might have to service it soon
You might want to get on that to prevent catastrophic failure
@@dwightrhodes2051 you’re correct! Spring project for sure
I went through a really deep water hole and my wolverine stalled but started again after a few tries. Since then I have not been able to go over 25-30 mph and it starts chugging and revving high. Any suggestions. I have checked the belt casing and it was dry and belt looks good. No water in air box either.
Do you service others machines? If so how to get in touch with ya? I have a 2023 Rmax2 1000 do a 1600 mile
On your clutch compression tool how long it the all thread?
Just curious on your comparison to the pioneer? Looking to get my first sxs. I like the short wheel base of both brands, but I am torn between the 2. Thanks, love the vids
The Pioneer is a great multipurpose machine if you need a dump bed. It’s built tough and the gear on gear transmission is fun to bang through in manual mode. Plus it’s been around long enough now there is a lot of aftermarket support to build it how you want it! However the Yamaha is just better in every area from comfort to power, fit and finish, ect. If your main use is trail riding and hauling people then the Rmax is the way to go! We though going from our Pioneer 1000-5 to the 850 Wolverine X4 was a big improvement in machine and stepping up to the Rmax is even more so. Again I loved the Pioneer but don’t regret going to the wolverines one bit!
@@AppalachianMountainRiders thank you for the response, I guess noise is a big factor as well. I’ve heard the wolverines are a noticeably louder machine
Correct. The Rmax is considerably louder than the pioneer but the 850 Wolverine is about the same. Cab heat is a lot worse with the Pioneer however so that’s something to consider as well. One of the main reasons we traded for the yamaha was the roll cage between the front seat and the rear got hot enough to hurt our kids hands in the back if they grabbed them.
@@AppalachianMountainRiders great info! Thanks again
This was a super helpful thread. I’m shopping between these units too, so it’s good info for me. Maybe you could consider doing a video just comparing what you’ve seen between the various utvs you’ve owned and serviced?
Another Great video
I saw on one of your videos a peddle extender for the pioneer. 520 , can give me the manufacturer of it I would like to purchase one .tks
Sure can!

Did you find where the water/mud was coming in at ?
It was getting in the cvt exhaust tube from getting in too deep.
You need mud tires for those holes.
For the holes I’m pretty sure where the cause of this….I agree! I’m not a big fan of the dirt commanders as a trail tire let alone for in the mud😂😂😂
@@AppalachianMountainRiders my buddy has trail tires and they don’t do well in mud
Have you changed the weights on the clutch?
Stock weights.
Have you ever came across anyone needing to replace the belt out on the trail, I would love to learn how to do this and what I would need to have with me. For the RMax 4.
I have a ‘21 rmax4 and this summer my sheeve/clutches are going to need serviced. How much would you charge for something like that? Thanks.
I’ll look at the total of the last one I did and let you know. Can’t remember off hand.
@@AppalachianMountainRiders ok thank you
Last clutch service I did came to around $390.00.
@@AppalachianMountainRiders ok thank you. I’m sure I’ll be getting ahold of you sometime this summer. Love the vids, helped a lot with my own RMAX. Keep it up
@@AppalachianMountainRidershow can I get ahold of you by telephone? I am interested in getting some clutch work done on my Yamaha Viking and can’t seem to find a phone number for you.
How much would you charge to service my Rmax x2 CVT?
Provided nothing needed replaced it would be around $350-$380.
The Yamaha RMax is not designed to be AMPHIBIOUS
Need a sheave counter…
😂😂😂
We need to have a little chat about TinkSeal™ and misinformation. TinkSeal™ is not grease and you slipped your belt because you had nano particles on your fingers and you touched your sheaves.
I was confusing the dry lube used in a greaseless application as being a form of Tinkseal but realize now that it’s not. It was the dry lube that was the cause of my belt slippage in the past and not the Tinkseal and I’ve pinned a comment explaining my miss information.
Technically they are sliders because they do not roll!
