Yep, I'd agree 1000%

I agree 45 to 50 is fast enough for me on open road. On trails it's more like 30 to 40 but only going from one rough spot to another. I rented a polaris out in Utah and rode in the dessert. Wow. Had a blast. it was the 900. So much fun to drive. More comfortable than the honda too...

Very nice. We bought a Honda Pioneer 1000 a few years ago for the same reason. We were riding with groups and needed a little more umph to keep up and run the trails. It's not the fastest or best mudding machine. No problem. I don't even try the big mud holes. I go around them. I have...

I put the blade on my tractor. Did not use it even once for snow. Not complaining. However, I'm using it today to help spread some gravel. Then it comes off and bush hog takes it's place. 50 degree outside now. going up to 55. Sunny though so I'm planning to fire up the mower after I...

Thanks Brian. I've been meaning to update this thread. Unfortunately I have yet to do the first mow of the season. I should have mowed before Easter. I was talked out of it so we could hide easter eggs for the kids better. That worked. We hid 200 eggs. So far 191 eggs have been found...

If that's the case, the RTV averaged 5.1 mph for it's 1500 hours.

I see what you mean. Since it is not 8000 but real numbers like you show I doubt it is just resetting. For a definite answer I'm thinking you might take it to a dealer and see what they say. Please share here whatever you find out.

Just a guess but your meter is an hour meter only. You have 1500 hours on your machine. Once started that flash is the meter resetting from the start up process then it goes back to whatever hours are on your RTV.

That is strange. My 2015 RTV 1100 will show hours with the key on before the engine is running. It has a 'h' after the number, then once started it shows the miles driven. pics of mine.

Hi, welcome to our forums. There are quite a few excellent mechanically inclined members here. I am not aware of a NH tech, but maybe we'll both be pleasantly surprised.

Good intro. Welcome to our playground. Enjoy and post often. :tiphat: :thumb: :clap:

I am in 2wd most of the time. It might surprize you have far you can make it in just 2wd. I have the same soft Meigs county mud as you and I get by most of the time with just 2wd. I have a couple hills I don't even try in 2wd cause I don't want to tear them up. So I bump into 4wd then, but...

Sure sounds like a great deal. Boardercollie, who posted above this, is a whiz at these machines and owned machines that were close to 5000 hours. So as long as maintenance was not ignored on this machine you are getting a fantastic deal. Congrats.

My WSM pdf does not have a search feature. It was the freebie I downloaded. Leaves a lot to be desired. Anyone have a pic of where the rack screw is?
