Product Description
Sand is one of the most power-robbing terrains on the planet, constantly creating a heavy drag that forces your machine to work twice as hard. The EPI Sand Dune Clutch Kit is engineered specifically to fight back, tailored precisely for Can Am Defender HD11 riders conquering the dunes at 0-3,000 feet of elevation. Designed and tested specifically for sand dune applications, this kit is perfectly calibrated whether you are running stock treads or a dedicated set of aggressive paddle tires, ensuring your CVT can handle the unique fluid friction of riding on open dunes.
The biggest gamechanger with this kit is its ability to help your Defender hold peak power RPM. When you are carving bowls or climbing massive, steep sand hills, you cannot afford to have your transmission upshift too early and bog down. This kit delivers significantly better low-end power and torque to get you moving across soft terrain effortlessly. Paired with a much quicker backshift, it provides a crisp, instantaneous throttle response, meaning your transmission backshifts the second you hit an incline, keeping the engine screaming right in the sweet spot of its powerband.
Riding in the sand is notorious for creating extreme friction, which turns your clutch housing into an absolute oven. By optimizing the belt grip, the EPI Sand Dune Kit drastically reduces belt slippage and lowers clutch heat. Keeping temperatures down is the single best way to prevent blown belts, giving you the reliability you need to run hard all weekend long. It is the ultimate upgrade to transform your utility workhorse into an agile, dune-shredding machine.
