Strange Clutch Problem... What does this mean??

[Hairyblackdude]

Hey all,

I have a 96 Blaster.

When i'm first starting the quad when its cold- it likes to roll forward a few feet if its in gear, even w/ the clutch pulled in... I try to remember to start it in neutral, but most times I dont.

After it's started for a few seconds, it will stop rolling forward.

I don't have any other problems w/ my clutch- after its running, everything works fine.. When the blaster is warm, it does not roll forward anymore.

Is this a sign telling me the clutch is on its way out?
Is this a common problem w/ quads until the oils get flowing?

My friends Banshee does the same thing, but his only rolls forward a ft or 2.
I'm kinda new to quads, so I'm not sure if this is common or what...

Thanks for any info !!

Mine does the same thing, but only when its cold outside. As soon as the blaster warms up its fine. Not sure why it does this though.

yea mine does it too, it probably has something to do with the heat on the clutch disks
