I've test driven two of them and have a few questions for those that own or operate one.
Is the loud clunk when the CVT clutch disengages normal? That's what I experienced during a test ride.
How about belt squeal? Does it go away eventually, or is it perhaps an adjustment issue? I would hope that isn't something you have to learn to live with.
Are there any access hassles due to the engine being located under the seat? I noticed that you have to remove the seat to get to the engine, not simply lift it, since it isn't hinged. It seemed fussy to get it back in place with the seat belts getting in the way.
Any short drivers in your family? My wife is quite short (5 footish). I am concerned about the non-adjustable seat and pedal reach, especially when belted in. Unfortunately, we are not in a position for her to take a test drive.
Do you have any experience with the following accessories, front hitch adapter, winch mount (sans winch), headache rack? Worth the cost? Are there any others that are a must have? I already know I want a top, no matter what brand I buy.
How is the factory service manual, if you have one?
Thanks,
Misfire
