EPI Performance Sport Utility Clutch Kit Polaris General 1000 Models – 27-28 Tires Inch

Polaris General 1000 Sport Utility Clutch Kit for 27–28” Tires (0–3000 ft)

The EPI Performance Sport Utility Clutch Kit is engineered specifically for Polaris General 1000 models equipped with 27–28 inch tires and operating between 0–3000 feet elevation. Oversized tires increase rotational mass and drivetrain load, often causing sluggish acceleration and reduced throttle response. This precision-calibrated clutch kit restores lost performance and optimizes your CVT system for stronger, more responsive power delivery.

Designed as EPI’s best all-around use kit, this upgrade improves low-end torque, enhances midrange acceleration, and delivers quicker backshift response. Whether you’re trail riding, navigating occasional mud and sand, plowing, or hauling heavy loads, this clutch kit keeps your General operating in its ideal RPM range.

Important Fitment Notes:

• Will NOT fit Polaris General XP or General XP 4 models.
• This kit eliminates the factory Engine Braking System (EBS).
• Removing EBS provides a more performance-oriented driving experience.
• If you wish to retain EBS functionality, a different helix is required (contact manufacturer for details).
