Hey Guys,
I am new here and just looking for a bit of assistance. I have a 2007 Rhino 660 and after a few minutes of use it develops a funny odor like a clutch burning smell or a brake smell. I dont notice any real loss of power once the smell starts, just the smell. Do any of you guys have any ideas on what it could be.
I am new to side x sides but not new to wrenching. I have raced MX for most of my life and do all of my own repairs and rebuilds. I have built cars and trucks from the ground up.
Thanks in advance for any help guys.

Knowing that you understand the engine side of things I would look at the belt or the clutch itself. Pending on condition the clutch could have been ran low on oil. I think that is the only odd smell I had from the rhino besides toasting the belt.
Are we camping yet?

I havent had time to take it out of the trailer to actually look at it yet, so I am just looking for info on where to start. So thanx Fasttrax.
I am figuring on the belt but I was curious if I would have power loss if the belt was frying? If the belt were slipping enough to start melting it wouldnt it be slipping enough to cause power loss?
I am an MX guy and I know when a bike clutch starts to go enough to smell it, the clutch is slipping bad and has been loosing power for a while.
I am just hoping someone has a good start point. Belt and oil/clutch check will be first up. Anything else I should think about?
