PRODUCT RELEASE: NEW DD CLUTCH COVER Optimized for Desert and Dunes – Built from the Voice of Our Customers At Speed UTV, our product development is driven by one simple principle: listen to the customer. Every innovation we ship reflects the real-world feedback from owners, racers, and off-road enthusiasts who use their vehicles in a wide variety of terrains and conditions. As a manufacturer, we face the challenge of designing parts that perform across a wide range of uses. No component is more sensitive to these variables than the CVT clutch system. Because clutching must be tuned based on load, terrain, speed, and temperature, we continually test and refine our systems to ensure maximum performance—right out of the box. With the majority of our customers riding in the Southwest U.S., we’ve prioritized high-heat, high-load environments for our latest upgrade. We’re proud to introduce the DD Clutch Cover (Desert & Dunes), now standard on all 2025 Speed UTV models (July 2025) and can Retro any current Speed UTV. Key Features: Increased Airflow: The DD cover dramatically improves airflow through the CVT system by rerouting the air exit to flow out in front of the secondary clutch. Lower Belt Temps: By optimizing the exit path and volume of hot air, belt temperatures are reduced, leading to better clutch performance and longer belt life. Block-Off Plate Included: The original CVT exhaust port is blocked off as part of the installation to ensure all airflow is directed forward and out of the system. Frog Skin Protection: A pre-filter membrane (frog skin) is installed over the new exit to prevent debris or water from entering the system while maintaining airflow. Trail-Worthy: While the DD cover is not designed for deep water or mud submersion, it performs well in occasional small water crossings—perfect for mountain trails and desert washes. Application: This cover is ideal for desert riders, dune enthusiasts, and most mountain trail users. For riders in wetter environments or deep mud, ask your sales representative about alternative clutch cover options better suited for your application. IF you are 100 Percent dunes, you should be running our Lexan Cover. In Summary: The new DD Clutch Cover is aimed at improving durability and heat management where most of our customers ride. It's one more way Speed UTV continues to evolve—not just to meet expectations, but to exceed them.
