Aftermarket Part

  • Lock and load your Kawasaki Ridge 1000 and get ready for some serious kick!  The Ridge 1000 is a great utility machine, but Kawasaki left a ton of room for improvement on the table.  This simple kit is the best way to wake up your Ridge 1000 as it comes with our proven ECU tunes which are loaded via the DynoJet Power Vision 3 ECU tuner.  The tunes add some amazing horsepower from low end to high end RPM and really give your machine that kick you're looking for.  Our AA Stage 1 clutch kit compliments the tuning perfectly by more efficiently transferring power to the wheels and ridding yourself of the very lazy factory clutching setup.
  • Kit includes: AA custom tuned PV3 tuner and Stage 1 Clutch Kit.
  • Big horsepower gains for standard 92HP models  and 116HP XR models!  Taking your ridge to an estimated 135HP crank horsepower.
  • 92HP Models:    The lower 92 horsepower models are very de-tuned which allows us to easily wake things up as the factory limits throttle and timing.  The Ridge 92HP models also use a smaller restrictor/spark arrestor in the exhaust.   While our tune still gains with the smaller OEM restrictor, we highly suggest removing the restrictor, purchasing the XR restrictor, or the best option is to purchase our exhaust.  See tune descriptions below and dyno graph images for horsepower results.
  • 116HP XR Models:  These are still de-tuned from the factory though much less than the 92HP models.  We still see excellent gains.  See tune descriptions below and dyno graph images for horsepower results.
  • **New feature unlocked as of March 2026:  We now have the ability to desensitize the belt slip detection system, which is extremely sensitive.  The factory setting immediately puts the machine into limp mode when any amount of belt slip is detected.  This is especially annoying for those with the heavier Crew models or those running larger size tires.  We turn down the sensitivity enough to be able to get up those slight inclines but still maintain the safety feature so if an abnormal amount of belt slip is detected it will still limit throttle to protect against excessive wear.
  • Quicker throttle response and power delivery
  • Throttle by wire tables are modified for better response, especially in high range.  Low range throttle mapping is a little better, but still left mild for good crawling and towing
  • Smoother throttle mapping down low as OEM seemed to be jerky in all modes
  • Slightly increased idle speed to smooth engagement and keep the CVT engaged for more predictable engine braking.  We found models with AC and AC turned on constantly kicked the CVT system in/out of freewheel making it hard to control.  We tested some different clutching and found it could also be controlled this way, but it was much better to control this via the engine idle calibration.
  • Full throttle/power in reverse (factory limits reverse throttle)
  • AA's wicked timing curve - Switch fuel modes without having to re-flash:
    • Sport and Normal throttle mode: 91-93 Octane
    • Work throttle mode: 87+ octane (91 octane dyno graphs shown)
  • A great fuel curve that gives much better low end and all around more power as the factory map is very lean in key areas.
  • Accelerator enrichment is optimized for better fueling and vehicle response when stabbing the throttle
  • Fan on/off temp lowered to 185/180 degrees Fahrenheit (Stock is 189/183)
    • Winter tunes (runs hotter but safe coolant temps) available for those with cabs/heaters in cold climates. Easy to switch when seasons change!
  • Optional seatbelt limiter disabled
  • Speed limiter removed
  • Rev limit at a safe 9800 RPM (Stock is 9500 RPM)
  • Best peak power when tuned is 7600-8000 RPM at wide open throttle in the 30-50 MPH range
  • Very easy to use tuner that can also check and erase most trouble codes
  • Easily data log 29 parameters with 1 push of a button and review on your Windows PC/laptop later
  • No mess of having to send in your ECU, and a safer way of programming your ECU (easily go back to stock tune)
  • Mount using the supplied dual lock Velcro
    • Level 1 Tune:  Built for the OEM exhaust and 91-93 octane.  
      • Base Models:  Gains a solid +10 RWHP peak with +11-12 RWHP in the mid-range!  The AA S1 Clutch Kit is highly suggested with this tune and gains acceleration with an additional +10 RWHP in the mid-range!  This is +21 RWHP in the mid-range with just a tune and clutch kit!  Massive gains for a naturally aspirated machine.
      • XR Models:  Gains a solid +4-6 RWHP peak with +4-5 RWHP in the mid-range!  The AA S1 Clutch Kit is highly suggested with this tune and gains acceleration with an additional +15 RWHP in the mid-range!  This is +19-20 RWHP in the mid-range with just a tune and clutch kit!  Massive gains for a naturally aspirated machine.
    • Level 2 Tune:  Built for our (or other) aftermarket exhaust and 91-93 octane fuel.  The Ridge 1000 four cylinder loves to breathe and the AA slip-on muffler proves it with an additional +10-11 RWHP gained over our Level 1 tune and clutching.  This is +30-31 RWHP over stock in the mid-range and +20 RWHP peak!
  • If you have any specific tuning needs please let us know!
    • Why AA tunes over others?  We have been tuning UTV's with CVT clutches for a long time, longer than almost anyone in our field going back to the 800 RZR.  Tuning a CVT vehicle properly is not an easy task as you have so many variables at one time.  We spend the time to wheel dyno (with actual UTV tires) correctly per modification, and have advanced ECU calibration and clutching knowledge to do so. Every change in horsepower can result in us changing clutching several times. We also develop most of our supporting mods so we know everything works correctly, and build parts to fit the vehicles needs.  Lastly and honestly the most important; we then back up our results with real world data logging on local trails and our facility on 110 acres.  It's this combination that truly makes the difference and why AA normally has a faster vehicle with the same or less rated tune horsepower.
  • Our S1 Ridge clutch kit packs a huge punch!  No matter the terrain, they hit hard and just keep pulling for days.  On the farm, trail or at the race you'll notice wicked acceleration and instant clutch response when getting back into the throttle after hammering that corner.  In the dunes you'll see the same benefits, but also have much less bogging when climbing that big dune.  The machine will hold RPM so you can get where you need to go, and get there faster!  Going mudding?  Our mud setup will help turn those tires through the thick and deep with much better RPM and wheel speed that's key to climbing out of that hole. Are you a rock crawler?  Our smooth engagement and precise feel down low will give you the confidence to tackle any obstacle.  We have a huge amount of CVT knowledge, a great passion for the sport, and spent many hours testing different setups in the real world.  We know you'll be extremely pleased with the performance gain from our clutch kits! 
  • The original Ridge clutch kit!  When Kawi first released the Ridge, we had one on order so we could quickly get to work.  After hundreds of different tests with weight profiles, clutch setups, and spring changes we found the best combination possible.
  • Overdrive Option:  These clutches do not shift fully and therefor your RPM runs high quickly at higher speeds.  Shifting further into overdrive helps give you more top speed, and higher speeds without so much RPM.  To do this, we had to design a custom weight profile with slightly added length.  We have two methods for this.  The best option is our billet  overdrive Revolver cover which allows the clutch to shift further and properly limit and this is much stronger than the cast OEM plate.   The second method is to use our overdrive washers to space your OEM cover out which works, but is a little more hassle to install and more parts to worry about... plus, the OEM cover is weak, so it's best to replace it if you can.  Note:  The Revolver Overdrive cover should not be installed with our Overdrive Washers.  Running the Revolver Overdrive cover with our Overdrive Washers could cause the primary clutch to overshift and potentially damage the belt/clutches.
  • With the overdrive option we see around 76-79 MPH with our cruiser setup, and you can see 80-85 MPH with our standard or performance clutch weight setups
  • The Ridge has some clutching issues right out of the box because the OEM weighs are soft, just like the KRX models.  Being these vehicles are geared so low, the clutch constantly runs at full shift over 50 MPH.  Being at full shift for so long wears the weights away at the tip and will groove them.  This makes the vehicle want to sit at full shift and shift inconsistently.  Our weights go through two hardening processes and are through hardened for the most longevity possible.  Not only that, but they are fully adjustable for different tires/modifications and perform better because of how the mass is placed on the arm.  AA Ridge weights now come with a bushing design for an even smoother engagement over stock.
  • We have 3 different clutch weight configurations for your riding type, and they can be switched out when/if needed:
    • For reference, stock cruising RPM @ 50mph is normally 7700-8000 RPM
    • Standard clutch setup:  Our main clutch weight setup guide.  This is the best middle ground for belt grip, performance, and drivability.  Cruising RPM @ 50 MPH is typically  6200-6500.  Peak RPM at wide open should be 7600-7800.  
    • Cruiser clutch weight setup:  On our clutch weight setup guide, it will list a cruiser option for those wanting to lower overall RPM to make the vehicle quieter. This is aimed at those that don't need every horsepower, but want a smoother/quieter ride.  Cruising RPM @ 50 MPH is typically 5500-5800.   Peak RPM at wide open should be 6300-6700.  
    • All our performance setup:  Our clutch weight setup guide, it will list the all out performance setup which has you run the weight arms with no magnets.  This will give you maximum RPM/Performance from your ridge.  This will engage a little higher than the other setups and will run higher RPM all around, but will absolutely rip if that's what you are looking for.  Cruising RPM @ 50 MPH is typically 6500-7000.  Peak RPM at wide open should be 7800-8100.  
  • Stage 1 clutch kit includes our AA Recoil magnetic adjustable bushing style clutch weights, AA primary spring & setup guideline.  
  • Our setup guideline will let you know how to set your weights for stock horsepower, tuned horsepower, 27-35" Tires, paddles & more.
  • Fully adjustable magnetic weights are easy to use and adjust
  • Adjustable from 85-109 grams
  • By design, our clutch weights have more tip weight mass with a more aggressive profile, so they grip the belt harder and accelerate faster... yet still crawl even better than OEM.
  • A must-have when changing tires, tuning your machine, or running paddles
  • Cooler running belt temps from a more efficient power transfer which results in longer belt and clutch life
  • Big acceleration gains and better power transfer to the rear wheels.
  • Close to stock engagement which is very smooth
  • Our Recoil clutch weights are easily adjustable with simple magnets.  They have a custom AA profile, the BEST coating on the market (nitrocarburizing) which has increased wear resistance, improved fatigue strength, and added surface lubricity. These clutch weights also offer great performance, and the ability to tune for many different applications or modification in the future, without the need to buy extra parts.  The magnetic weights are the best option to properly place the mass where we need it on the weight for best performance for your application.
  • We found the stock secondary clutch to work very well, the S1 kit is just for the primary clutch.
  • Make sure you check peak RPM @ 30-50 MPH, it should be 7600-8000 RPM for peak performance.  See here on how to test:  https://aftermarketassassins.com/tech-blog/f/clutch-testingverification#

Worked good then died at six months (Updated)
Worked good for a couple of months, then started to develop a lag between when you pressed a button on the remote, and when the TV would respond. If I moved the speaker blocking the TV’s IR receiver, and pointed the remote at it, it worked perfectly. Add the IR blaster back in and the delay returns. The delay kept getting longer and longer, sometimes 5 to 10 seconds. Then it just died. Would not pass any IR signals, even though the receiver and emitter both had power. Tried rebooting, changing communication channels to no avail. Out of Amazon return window. Manufacturer wants you do go through a troubleshooting process for warranty that is too complicated and time consuming. Customer Service Rep at Sewell send me a warranty replacement.

Nice Product and Customer Service
I ordered this BlastIR Wireless Pro IR Repeater from Sewell to replace a wired version of an IR repeater from another company. We have moved our TV on to a wall location and are in the process of hiding all the wiring out of sight behind walls and/or in a cabinet. We still have some wires to go, but this product has enabled us to eliminate the IR wiring all together. It's a real improvement in both looks and performance over the cheaper, wired version we originally tried. The BlasterIR's Receiver is the component that faces the room and receives the IR signal from our remote controls. It's small enough to fit in the space between our sound bar and the bottom of the TV. It's range is great for our room size (about 22' long and 18' wide) and picks up the remotes signal from a side angle that's almost parallel to the TV itself. The receiver is powered through one of the USB ports integrated into the TV (although the device itself supports either a USB or regular plug-in option). I haven't used them yet but Sewell appears to have provided a few options to help with affixing the IR devices in their final positions including some adhesive pads and a magnetic pad option as well. I'm still playing around with the permanent placement of the IR Blaster Emitter. It sits inside a closed cabinet and faces the concealed cable box receiver, router and DVR components. It retransmits the various IR signals it receives from the IR receiver by blasting that signal to anything it faces. I just placed it in the cabinet about 5" away from the devices I wanted to control, plugged it in and it worked with no other set up. So far the BlastIR is working seamlessly and with much better function response time than the cheaper IR version we'd tried at first. The lag time between when a button is pressed on the remote control and the action taking place on the device I'm communicating with is minimal. The emitter itself is plugged into an outlet on a surge protector powering the other in-cabinet devices, although it too could be powered via the provided USB connection if desired. As a note, we did experience a shipping issue during our ordering process. The order it self was processed quickly and shipped in a timely manner. However, there was an issue with our actual receipt of the product and the USPS who reported it delivered to our mailbox when in fact it had not been. Regardless, we reached out to Sewell directly and they quickly resolved the issue for us with no problems and in a timely manner. I would recommend both this IR Blaster Pro product as well as Sewell as a trusted company itself.

Does NOT Transmit Through Walls
Quick and easy setup! Works great within the room. However, will not work effectively between walls (i.e. - AV closet to living room).

Works perfectly - great product
My MBR TV set-up incorporates a cable box set up in a closet about 50 feet from the TV (hung over a fireplace). When it was set up the A/V used a wired infra-red set up that was wired thru the walls, under the floor, into the closet. Unfortunately some mice nibbled on the wiring and it does not work. I have tried everything including the Next Generation extender (over the years bought 6 of them for different TV's) and most recently the Startech. The Next Generation have not been updated in years and over time completely lose their ability to operate. No customer service at all; emails go into a black hole. I had high hopes for the Startech. Easy to set up and worked out of the box. The problem is the lag time. I could live with it when watching live TV, but it was totally impossible when it came to playing back programs from the DVR (which is cloud based). I was losing hope until I tried the Sewell Blaster. Took me less then 5 minutes to set up and it worked instantly. Little or no lag to speak of and I couldn't be happier. NB. Speaking of Sewell, the absolutely BEST way to control your HDMI based TV is the Sewell Direct SW-30062 Dual Band InjectIR sold by Amazon for $55. This is truly plug 'n play and operates with absolutely no lag. Bought 2 of these to operate TV's in my apartment where I had to hide boxes in closets. Well made, great instructions (coordinated with the devices) and I just love this product. I bought mine direct from Sewell ) same price) because I couldn't find them on Amazon when I needed them, but they have a great return policy and I'm told great C/S. If you can't use these then go for the Blaster.

This vacuum is totally worth the extra money! I LOVE MY YELLOW VAC!
Configuration: Vacuum
Don't hesitate to spend a few more dollars on this vacuum, because you won't be sorry over time. I had done extensive research on purchasing my next vacuum when I came across this model. A friend owns one of the dark green limited edition models and had great things to say about it. I tried hers out and that was that. I loved it. She also bought the floor attachment for wood or flat surface flooring that is already included with this model. I loved that attachment when I tried hers out. It glides across the floor and sucks everything up in it’s path. The Calima had everything I wanted in one package and I really loved the cheerful yellow color. The only thing I didn't like was the price of course. However, in this case I do believe you get what you pay for. Luckily, I was able to get an Amazon Warehouse like new Calima with the floor attachment for ever so slightly more than my friend’s vac plus the extra floor attachment would've cost me. YES!!! In my 16 years married life, I have bought and used a Panasonic, a Dyson and most recently a Sears Progressive (discontinued red model). Their life span has been 4-6 years each. I vowed this time to do some research up front, so I can stop my side job of buying new vacuum cleaners. I found I loved canister vacs thanks to the Progressive, so that was my number one priority. Proven longevity was the next priority. When my vac arrived, I immeditely took it out of the box and started vacuuming away. I have family members with allergies and one with allergies and asthma. My old vacuums never did the cleaning job of this little, lightweight yellow sunshine! I enjoy vacuuming again. It is so quiet that every time I use it, my daughter comments on it. It turns on a dime and is so easy to maneuver. The cord is a perfect length and winds up in a snap. I do like the digital features (that can be touched with your toes-no need to bend down) of changing the suction power. I considered other models with the manual dial and even saw one at Bed Bath and Beyond. It wasn't difficult, but the digital is better in my opinion. Compartments open and close with such ease unlike my Progressive, which I had to wrench open every time I needed to change the bag or get an attachment out. I actually broke the clasp off that allows you to change the bag within months of first getting the Progressive. The Progressive and my other vacs for that matter, were all made of cheap plastic. The Miele surpasses all of my other vacs by leaps and bounds! This company makes great vacuums! Thank you Miele and thank you Amazon!
