The 2024+ Polaris RZR XP 1000 comes clutched for a stock machine on average terrain. Add bigger tires, ride at altitude or spend your weekends in mud or sand, and the factory setup starts slipping the belt, shifting at the wrong time and building heat. This Rev1 Clutch Kit lets you retune the CVT for the way you actually ride, with better belt grip, sharper throttle response and quicker backshift.
Highlights
- Better throttle response with quicker backshift
- Stronger low-end engagement and torque
- Less belt slippage and less heat buildup
- Prevents the power loss that comes with larger tires
- Faster acceleration
- Warthog adjustable magnetic weights for easy tuning
- Every weight and spring combination included, plus a premium replacement CVT belt
- Detailed tuning instructions for trail, mud and sand
Stage 1 or Stage 2?
| Stage | What it includes | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Clutch springs, clutch arms, full set of Warthog weights, premium belt | Trail and dune riding, moderate tire upgrades, altitude tuning |
| Stage 2 | Everything in Stage 1 plus a secondary helix | Big tires and deep, heavy mud where you're at high throttle and low speed |
The Stage 2 helix gives more belt grip than Stage 1, at the cost of a little responsiveness. If you run large mud tires or portals, it's the stronger choice; for most trail riders, Stage 1 gives the best feel.
Tuning Made Simple With Warthog Weights
Clutch weights control when the primary clutch shifts. Warthog weights are adjustable and magnetic, so you can add or remove mass without swapping complete arms. That makes it easy to experiment: try a setting, ride your usual loop, and fine-tune until the engagement and shift feel right.
Instructions That Teach You the Setup
The kit comes with detailed instructions that explain which springs to use and where to place weights for specific riding styles and conditions. Whether you're running big tires, riding thousands of feet above sea level or racing the desert on stock tires, you'll have a starting point and the parts to adjust from there.
Signs Your Clutch Needs Tuning
- Belt smell or glazed, cracked belts after hard pulls
- Sluggish takeoff since adding larger tires
- Engine RPM that falls off on climbs or in deep mud
- Slow backshift that leaves you in too high a ratio coming out of corners
What's in the Box
- Clutch springs and clutch arms

Installation Notes
This is a do-it-yourself kit for owners comfortable removing the clutch cover and working on the primary and secondary clutches; a clutch puller and clutch holding tool make the job easier. Follow the stage-specific instruction sheet (both are linked below), install the new belt, and break it in per the belt instructions before riding hard.
