I'm pretty sure that it is like taking a stick to the face in a Pioneer 500! Pure RED fun!!!:mad:
Spoken like someone who’s been to St. Marie’s!!! I think they may hurt a little better in the 1000 though because you’re closer too them and can’t get away:)

The thing about a 1000 vs the 500 when it comes to a stick in the face is that with the 1000 you seem to go faster and get way more of them slapping you in the face!

Ya that vid got shortened for some reason I’ll try to repost in the morning. A couple vids I can’t post when ang was driving as she was learning some but I’ll say the Pioneer got a workout tonight. Some new scratches but she sure feels good! Nothing like a Pioneer! Love this machine.

Here’s the better one. Great ride for the backyard. Slowly we’re getting back into ownership of a Pioneer!

Hey "jerky" is a good thing. It means no excessive slipping. Mine is either on or off and that's how I like it. I see people reporting smoother clutches after the upgrade and praising it. They obviously have no working experience with clutches.


I just went from a 2016 that has 4300 miles, and clutches are still rock solid, to a 2018. Engagement is smooth as can be but in my mind i was thinking same thing, are they just slipping into engagement and gonna wear out sooner. I guess time and mileage will tell.

I promise ya if it's smooth, it's slipping. You can still help yourself by not staying in the slip zone any longer than you have to. Gas it and go.

Much appreciated! Very optimistic on this year we will definitely be making up for lost miles. As soon as the damn snow goes away should be a solid year:)
