So I lent my quad to my brother for the weekend, I was with him.
We had a great ride however even though he will not admit it he was riding in HI through the trails at a slow speed....another bud could smell belt...
Any how, the bike started to creep in gear and stall, like the belt was allways engaged- I adjusted the throtle and everything else - I could barley shift the bike from gear to gear when it was creeping so I am sure the clutch was still engaged.
My question is I took the cover off and examined the belt, the side contact is hard as a rock so I am guessing it is burnt. I removed the driven clutch to examine the spacers, mine has 2, the front one looked a little worn. I am going to replace the belt and add 2 brand new spacers....anybody want to give me some additonal tips. The bike has allways been perfect untill now.
Thanks everyone.

my buddies did that and it was all about the shims, think you have it nailed down. IMO

Thanks Brian, I was thinking I had the problem, but you never know what people have run into.
