    Inquire heavily about the new clutches as outfitted to dealers by ARGO. I think they leave a lot to be desired on the low end. Make sure that they will stand behind any warranty work or factory upgrades/fixes that need to happen. Tuning clutches is not rocket science, but I know that (1) 2022 aurora I have driven (and will put through its paces again very soon) is not right. Granted it was with factory flat rubber tracks, but I was comparing it to my own 950 (2021) and had also mounted the flat factory rubber tracks as well for direct comparison. With no high-torque gear set in the trannys anymore, the reduction via the clutches has got to be correct on the low end at RPMs far under 3000. A 950 should not struggle at all, what a bummer for the brand new machines.

    Edit: drove again out at my place up some hills and various skid-turns. Same problem, almost 3000+ rpm needed if under any significant load, and even then machine (2022 aurora) struggled, and you could smell hot belt. This happened in low and high range. FYI, I could see almost exactly 2 mph difference between low range and high range on flat ground (no load other than flat factory rubber tracks) @ 3000 rpm. 11 mph vs 13 mph. Much of the test drive felt a lot like driving an older, carbureted Avenger (25 hp) with standard gears. Struggling to turn unless you flogged the throttle (which doesn’t exactly work in some terrain where speed must be controlled). And belt was never happy. Someone needs to get to work on the clutches and/or also bring back the high-torque gear ratio in the trannys.
