    X series straight shifter upgrade kit

    unfortunately for you all the new updates and options are on the 2024 models but yours is still a great machine that will get a little easier to shift with more hours. You will learn techniques for shifting such as throttle blip and keeping the pressure relief cable adjusted right. Removing the...

    X series straight shifter upgrade kit

    This mod is one of the best improvements I have made to my x900. As a side note it is my understanding that the hew models will have an updated transmission with bevel gears that will make them shift more smoothly with less effort. Maybe kabota finally fixed my only complaint with the...

    Side Kick accessories installed on X series rtv

    Once you get above the curvature it looks like you have more room than my windshield and your wiper is not in the way.

    Yes ....those are the bolts where the cross bar mounts. The base of my windshield is straight . Yours is curved as your dealer said. Maybe you could use longer bolts with spacers to clear the curvature?

    Something like this may be an option. Use your front hitch. Thinking out side the box you could make a bracket to clamp on the top of the front bumper and face the rack toward the windshield over the hood with a quick release pin to remove for under hood access . Actually I kind of like that...

    I wonder why? They are all the same hood. Technically kabotas rack is only listed for the xg 850 side kick.

    No. It uses two of the hood hinge bolts and clamps to the front bumper.

    Here is the kabota windshield mount. I used the most forward set of holes to clear my wiper. It does stop the hood from opening fully but still enough to check filter and fluids. The bolts could be loosened for full opening if needed. Seizmek makes the rack for kabota. you can buy the...

    There are four quick clamps. Two by the bumper and two by the windshield then it lifts off. It is fairly lite and indexes back on the brackets easily. It sounds harder than it is.

    The green water tight tube came with one of my implements with the owners manual in it. I repurposed it to carry some specialized vineyard tools. Irish coffee sounds like a better plan. I just had my cataracts fixed so I do have better vision...LOL. Seriously cutting the pin off the stock...

    I am finding the front carrier very useful. It is great for clearing out the bed to haul brush that has to be dumped.

    I saw where another member put a sidekick shift knob on his x series after installing the straight line shiftier upgrade talked about in another thread. I gave it a try and like it. It does not have threads but presses on very tight and so far has not moved. It feels more ergonomic when...
