TERYX H2 RECALL OFFICIAL

Pretty sure the KWI Fusion clutching was not for sale to the public for the H2 until more recently as in this month. If you look at their Instagram page 6/3/26 is when they announced the Fusion H2 system was for sale and on the web site. Pretty sure the Rugged Radio was a tester for them.
You are correct it was just made available to the public about a week ago, yes, Reid with Rugged had one, I had one, and Steve Austin had one in his race car.

That is what KWI told me when I spoke to earlier this week. Reid has been around UTVs for a very long time. Back in the early rhino and original teryx days.
 
Looks like Kawasaki made the clutch recall official. Like i expected, it doesn't seem to do much in the way of improving performance, perhaps not even reliability since they are including a "guard". With the ECU reflash, may even get reduced performance......LMFAO......we took it in the shorts!
I saw this too. Looks like all they did was beef up between the towers, added some shims, an aux brace that goes over the primary cover and also a new scatter shield that goes over the plastic clutch assembly cover...which tells me there still might be a chance these things will blow up. Plus, it will make taking the cover off all that more difficulty. I did hear that they're offering $1000 in parts in addition to the extended warranty but haven't confirmed that from my dealer yet. Glad I have a TAPP on my car!
 
I take my car in on the 10th. I received the letter about $1,000 in accessories .
I did not get that letter LOL. I'm not upset one bit as I got a very good deal on not only the unit but also the accessories and labor to install. Kawasaki is doing a good deed to the owners who have been waiting for the repair.

It is probably just for us that have owned the car and been waiting. The $1000 is a nice touch. I can get some belts. LOL!

I haven’t seen a letter either. Wonder if we’ll have to get the recall done to get the $$$. I wasn’t going to bother since I went TAPP.

I would highly recommend the upgrade. You can always re-install your Tapp. The scatter shields alone are very beefy and a nice upgrade in itself. I'm still blown away at the massive HP this puts out!!

I would go get it done. It is easy to remove your tapp clutch and reinstall the stock clutch. You get the extended warranty once the recall work is done and I am sure you will get the $1000 toward accessories.

Yeah, got my letter today.

I had originally planned to pull my TAPP primary and reinstall the OEM clutch and get the fix, but then I read about the purported ‘bandaid’ fix and thought not.

Now, with the $1k credit I’m rethinking it.

I’m calling the dealer that installed the TAPP to get their take on it. I don’t have an issue swapping the primaries, but it’s apart right now getting some other upgrades. Think I have ‘til March next year though.
 
I just read through the recall service bulletin (someone posted it on FB) and saw it includes a new drive housing cover.

My original cover is modified for the TAPP secondary, so I’m wondering what the difference is between the two covers? Anyone know?

I already have to reinstall the OEM primary to get the recall work done. (I want the $1k credit). I hope I don’t need to reinstall the OEM secondary just to satisfy some hoop jumping.

What kind of relationship do you have with your dealer? In the past I just gave back the replacement parts and got the repair stuff to install myself. Of course it has been years past since doing this. I'm not sure of the current climate of dealers letting you do your own repairs. I'm pretty confident mine would have no problem letting me do my own repair.

The only difference in the covers is the new one has mounting points for the scatter shield, that shield may be in the way or the EVP cap to cover the hole for the secondary helix.
 
I drop my car off for the fix this afternoon. In looking at the fix I was hoping they would put a cover over the lower voltage regulator and wiring to help protect it. When I broke a belt and killed my first cover it hit one of the connectors yanking it off.
 
Well, from the look of the new cover / scattershield, it appears I’ll be re-installing my OEM secondary…

I won’t take it in for the recall with the EVO modded cover though just in case they “forget” to return it.

My selling dealer (FBC in San Diego) is sounding pretty “ by-the-book” based on my last conversation with them. I do have a decent relationship with Anderson Powersports in Parker, AZ (we have a place on the River) where I get my Waverunner service done. They installed the TAPPs (for cheap!) when I had my break in service done back in Feb. They seem more open to dealing with swapping the OEM / TAPP clutch(es) for the recall.

However, I don’t want to wait until the temps in Parker are ‘reasonable’ and I want to send my TAPP primary back to EVO for the upgraded, finned sheave while it’s out.

So I ordered the EVO OEM clutch tool today that holds both the primary & the secondary. $150 for a one time use… (I already have the TAPP holder and removal bolt). Guess I’ll order a new primary bolt too…
 
I would just put the stock secondary back on. Pretty easy and take it in with no cover and let them put new one on. Im in the same boat. Then just put your tapps back in and your old cover. The new scatter shield stuff is definitely in the way
 
I should be getting mine this week sometime. I’m normally not excited with new off road vehicles. This one is an exception due to the fact it’s all new type of vehicle than my over 50 year run on 2 wheels. Dealer is waiting on a few of the accessories yet to be installed. I went wth all Kawasaki stuff except for fire extinguishers, com system, helmet pumpers and 5150 whips.
