2003 Rincon 650: Grinding noise putting in Drive and Rerverse, Need Help!!

[Jack Maehoffer]

I'm trying to figure this out, When I try to put the ATV in drive or reverse, I hear a grinding noise which is not cool. When I first start up the ATV let it warm up a bit, the shifting into gear isn't so bad. Once when the ATV is warmed up good, I notice the grinding. I'm looking through the service manual and in the transmission section theres an arrow pointing to a part called switch. The manual doesn't explain what this switch is. Does this quad have an electronic clutch. Any suggestions on how to diagnose this problem would be much appreciated!!

Thanks,

don't believe you have a electric cluch but try check your wheel bearings lift the quad up if the wheel wiggles ur bearings are gone
