Hi out there,
I am new to the RTV 1140, just picked up one 2 years old... nice rig, but I was noticing when I let off the gas, it comes to a very quick stop, without touching the brakes... worse when in reverse... is this normal???

Thanks

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new-to-you RTV!

Yes, that's normal. Some people like it, others don't. You'll find you get better with the gas pedal and letting it off slowly which will get rid of that abrupt stop. If you're on hilly terrain, you may like that as it gives a lot of engine braking.

We've talked about it a lot. Grab a cup of coffee and do searches on the forum for things like "abrupt stop" and "coast valve".

If you don't like the abrupt stopping it has now, you may want to bookmark a couple of the threads you find that say how to adjust the valve or replace it with the coast valve.
