Ok, don't make fun but I bought a complete rage 3 set up in August (late August ). Life happened tried a bunch to get the time to install. Everytime I went to do it something else pops up. Finally the last straw was work just getting to busy. Thank god for that, but it puts me at work from 7-7:30 most times 8:00. So I took my Maverick up to the Can Am dealer because the shop manager n I went to school together since grade school so I felt I could trust em. They put them on,tuned em n sent me on my way. Well not saying it's there fault but with in two miles my one way bearing was froze/in pieces inside the primary. So STM the awesome company they are fixed it in record time. STM said they weren't sure how this happened but they didn't blame anyone they just fixed it n sent it back. Now my Maverick has been up at the dealer during this time so as soon as I got the primary back I brought it to them and gave them a couple numbers to call if any questions. Now it could have been a fluke that this happened..not bad tuning, right?? So I get a call last night from my friend / shop manager. He said J it's done.. I said that was quick (they had the primary a day) I asked "did it tune ok" he said he won't put his life on it but it feels good the little bit they can test around the shop. WOW really made me feel insecure about the whole thing. I'm picking it up this morning around 10:30. -11:00 what can I look for to see if it ok. I know shifting might be hard because of the new belt but is there anything I can listen for or feel. I'm just kicking myself in the rear for not just doing it one night but I really don't know crap bout a clutch. He said the first time I got it back he added two shims n that was it. I'm gonna drive it around their shop a little then take it out to a local field to test. OH YEA when the bearing froze I asked them to put my stock clutches back on n he said I needed to come look at them. I don't know what the hell I'm looking at but they did look OLD, the smooth inside where the belt rides looked like a scared up break rotor so if this doesn't work I don't know what the heck to do. The only other shop in our town has had a maverick for 3months trying to tune a QSC that's eating belts in couple hundred feet. The owner said he can't figure it out :shocked: I do wanna say STM has been great though the whole thing. They even gave me cell phone #s to call if I needed anything,that's awesome
