    How much H2O?

    Using one of those large plastic totes to haul water to water my fruit trees. Filled it all the way up and saw the tires squat, let out quite a bit of water. Finally hauled 175 gallons and know that was too much. I have hauled wood and know I have hauled over 1100 lbs. in it. What is the max...

    What size trailer?

    What is the smallest sized trailer I should buy in order to tow my RTV 1100? I have been having the dealer pick it up, but that is getting old and expensive. Thanks XTROOPER

    How much weight ?

    For my friends up North (and I guess now down South) how much weight should I use for ballast? I usually use about 10 sandbags (30-35 lbs. per bag.) I normally do use weight in the bed of the RTV 1100. I find it helps when plowing since I have the Blizzard 720Lt snowplow and it is fairly heavy...

    Popped out RTV 1100 window, anyone know how to reinstall

    I was hauling firewood an tried to squeeze the old girl between a large rock and a tree. I guess it was tighter than I thought. Got home and the window was hanging out. The glass is not broken. I had to take the window and black rubber gasket out to use the RTV for other chores and it looks like...

    Still love my 08 RTV 1100

    The old girl keeps on going. Got in to the firewood heavy this year and the RTV has NOT let me down a bit. I am very happy with the add ons and have built a rough rack in to the wooden sides. That has enabled me to have everything I need out in the woodlot. I have a breaker bar, all kinds of...

    400 hour Service

    I just sent my 2008 RTV 1100 out for the 400 hour service and am not looking forward to the bill. Hope to put a high rise air intake on very soon because I agree with EVERYONE on the site who says the location of the factory air intake is just not right. XTROOPER:drink:

    SNOW+RTV=FUN

    Six inches of snow here in the Poconos. I plowed four driveways and my biggest complaint is that the RTV 1100 was so freakin hot! I forgot from last year that I should not have worn that sweat shirt. The BLIZZARD plow is great. It is very durable. I constantly bounce off the stone walls that...

    Hauling wood with the RTV 1100

    Cut some standing dead Oak because it was a beautiful day here in Northeast PA. Kubota just keeps on impressing me. XTROOPER

    Snow Chains on all 4 tires?

    I am getting more neighbors wanting me to snow plow for them. I am thinking of getting some of those diamond shaped skidder type snow chains for my RTV 1100. Can I put snow chains on ALL 4 tires? I am nervous that this might damage something on the RTV. Last year I used regular chains on the...

    What jobs do you do with the RTV?

    I do not own a tractor, so I probably use my RTV 1100 to do stuff that I would normally use a tractor for. Most of it is not out of the ordinary. This is what I have done with the RTV, so far! 1. Hauling firewood-I am amazed at how much firewood I can haul with my trailer and in my bed. A few...

    L.E.D. Traffic Advisor

    I had bought this Whalen amber colored L.E.D. lightbar to put in my unmarked cruiser a few years prior to my retirement from the State Police. Traffic on the interstate was getting crazy, so I made the investment to make sure I lived long enough to collect my retirement. When I retired I put the...

    AMSOIL

    I just changed to AMSOIL in my RTV 1100. For those who are using this product, what are you using for oil change intervals with the AMSOIL? As always, THANKS - XTROOPER

    RTV Oil Change

    I have a 2008 RTV 1100. I have used regular Kubota motor oil because the dealer told me that to use anything else would void the warranty. I really want to use synthetic motor oil. 1. Can I just drain the old motor oil to change it. Is there some type of procedure to follow when changing from...

    Ballast for snow plowing

    I used empty egg crates in the front of the bed of my RTV 1100 and placed sand bags on the very end of the tail gate. I tried to attach a picture, but don't think it took. No snow here yet, so don't know how this is going to work. It looks like it will work well.

    Blizzard 720 LT Plow on RTV 1100

    I live in NE PA and have a long uphill shale drieway. I have used the RTV 1100 to keep my 1/4 mile driveway plowed. I bought the 1100 with the Kubota/Curtis plow. I shattered the frame of the plow last year and now have just purchased the Blizzard plow. I am hoping this plow will take the...
