Is it hard to install a clutch kit?

Just wondering what the level of difficulty is to install a clutch kit in a 2007 650 brute force, my local atv store wants about 550 - 600 bucks for the kit and installation

DAMN!!! yeah that is a little high.The extreme EPI kit is only $200.You you can get the primary removal tool for around $35.If you have the tool then the instalation is pretty simple.It should only take you around an hour to install if that.The only catch is the secondary spring you will need a press or something like that to take the old spring off and put the new one on.

I believe it fits Kawi's,Polaris's and Artic Cats.Not sure on the rest cause they use a diff type of clutch system.Yamaha,Suzuki I know use a wet type clutch system and the others I mentioned use a dry clutch system.The wet styles are alot more in depth as far as installing a clutch kit in them.The dry systems are fairly simple.

OK I'm lost. What do you mean by a wet style clutch?

Kawi's,Artic Cats and Polaris's dont use an internal clutch system like the Yamaha and Suzuki do.On those 2 bikes the sling out weights are inside the case and run in oil.When you install a clutch kit on them you have to pull the entire belt cover off and pull a plate off the side of the motor to pull them out.There are 5 small springs that you have to install there.On the other 3 bikes,everything is on the inside of the belt cover,there is no oil for the clutch to run in so that is why they call it a dry system.
