vibration

Ok guys and gals need alittle help.I got a 700 rhino and at slow speed I'm getting a hell of a vibration coming from the cvt,also I just serviced the it and replaced the belt and regreased the sheave and the belt is a oem belt.Really bad at about 5mph.

what kind of belt..if one of the sheaves is wore bad the belt can rub the cover ..get me some pics

oem belt and a jbs sheave

does the  primary fixed have wear

Im not sure James but it could have its got 2700 miles on it.I just noticed the vibration this evening while I was riding in low range in the woods

Southark, did you find out where the vibration was coming from? I notice this weekend when I took my 700 out, at low speeds it vibrated pretty good. Don't know if more than it should but I don't feel that type of vibration with my 450.

I havent yet its seems to be the front drive shaft but not sure yet.I'm going to work on it tomorrow amd i will let you know.

No it wasn't in 4X4.

I'd be real interested in what you find Southark. I thought maybe it was just the bigger displacement than I was use to, but I don't need my balls vibrated will I'm out riding, that's just to Redneck for me.

My 2012 while in Low and four wheel going less than 8 miles an hour vibrates too. Kinda annoying. I've blamed it on the front diff drive shaft universals. Greased them and still the same. Wish Yamaha put CV joints (maybe an idea for you fabricators) there or better yet aligned the front diff with the out put on the engine case. On my '09 Grizzly 700 they had straight shafts and no vibration.

they do vibrate some at low speeds but only 9 out of 10...lol

Guess I'll get use to the ball vibrating package, never know might like it after awhile... lol.

Well I tore into my rhino today and cleaned the sheave and checked everything and it all looked good.Still have that vibration at about 5mph in low range and in 2 wheel drive.Starting to lean torwards it being the front drive shaft,so my next step is to pull the front drive shaft to see if that may be it.

Mine vibrates at low speed or climbing rattles the windshield badly and is worse in 4X4, I also noticed both left side engine mounts are broken again. Will replace the mounts and check "U" joints.

Thats one thing I didnt check was the motor mounts I will check that.
