Is this better than the EPI kit? It's $30 more...

I dont see how changing a spring and clutch weight will gain you more belt grip?

I'm not sure, we do our own testing,build our own prototypes and make our own kits. ...but really there kit may work very well,I expect it would.

This kit is adjustable and comes with a lot of options and a set up guide...we dont have 6 -7 different kits for all different tire sizes,terrains and elevations,..we have a set up guide with set ups to adjust the kit components to the application,..and to a certain extent to your preference (engagement,etc). You dont have to choose one exact kit/application.

I can understand you saying that if you are not that familiar with cvt systems. However,for an extreme example, many experienced tuners have taken some big hp drag snowmobile with tall asphalt gearing that would slip the belt badly for 150 feet,and fix it by changing flyweight design,flyweight roller relationship,opposing spring pressure to different flyweight designs,etc.......not to mention that a LOT of this slippage in the utv applications comes from the belt not backshifting to the correct ratio on the pulleys at the correct time.
Think of it like a 10 speed bicycle,..if the drive(chain /gears) is in the wrong ratio it is hard to peddle...on a cvt in the wrong belt ratio it slips the belt. CVT components control the upshift/backshift of the belt.No clutches or kit can help someone who refuses to use low range when they need to ,etc ..but proper calibration for the conditions and tire sizes,etc that you have can definitely help.

This kit uses adjustable flyweight lever arms,very different opposing spring pressure on both clutches,and even has optional engagement rpm.

There is nothing wrong with buying a whole new cvt system for your commander if that is what you have chosen to do,It would probably work well., but that doesn't have anything to do with this clutch kit that is designed to offer better calibration options for those that choose to keep the clutches that came on the machine,..right?

But if this clutch kit stops some of the belt slip =less heat = belt last longer and if you drive with some since and use the low and high range when needed the commander belt will last its been proven theres a alot of people with over 1000 miles with no belt issues

How many grams are the weights in this kit?

I live at 4500ft and ride up to 10,000ft Does my stock clutching need adjusting? The power seems underwhelming for 1000cc's.

I noticed at the sand dune that my clutch wasn't back shifting well to wards the tops of the dunes, will you're kit help this?

I also noticed at wot my rpm's are in the low 6k's is this where optimum power is?

Can your kit help me with these issues?

I have 2 drag sleds so lets talk facts! The problem here in this system is more than a set of weights or springs will fix! Guy don't waste your money! Why have 3 different company all make 3 different primary clutch set up for this commander because the stock one is junk no good belt grip! I f you throw allot of weight in the primary to grip the belt than you will suck the belt down in the secondary and slip the belt that way or maybe install a heaver spring and now you lose top end! You talk about drags sled than have a engagement of 5000 rpms or more and yes they are slipping the belt then.
