For the price of these things, I can't understand why Kubota can't put a light on the shifter and the K-Connect controller. My Boss plow controller was lighted.

So last winter I was trying to figure out how to get some interior light in the cab so that you can see the shifter and the snow blower controls when doing snow removal at night without getting glare on windows. I ended up putting a purple bulb in the interior dome light with a strip of tape on...

My thoughts exactly. As soon as pricing went crazy due to covid, Kubota Canada took the prices down because they were going up so often. I was in the middle of buying a new M7060 right around Christmas one year. Was $66,000 then overnight on January first it suddenly became $74,000 with no...

I was there the other day. Had a talk with the owners. They fired that mechanic right after he did mine. They found out I wasn't the only one. They told me to bring it in and they will go through it and service it. They were mad I never told them, but I said you guys have always treated me so...

Was just at my Kubota dealer yesterday ordering a BaumaLight 12KW PTO generator and got talking about my RTV. Am I ever happy I got it when I did in 2021! I paid $24,000 Canadian for my X1100C and they are now pushing $39,000 here with the tariff. And they are selling them as fast as they come...

I did. I went through it before I used it and good thing I did because the one gearbox wasn't even filled with oil. I notified both my dealer and Kubota and told them they better be giving me extended warranty. I never trust dealers and this is why.

Hey Westfield, do you find you still get some vibration and vibration related rattles from the K-Connect when it is down on the ground, or even with the blower removed. Or did my dealer just do a crappy job lining everything up? I am going to bring it back in before this winter to have them look...

I had the Boss vee plow on my RTV-X1100C. It is 6 and a half feet wide and I believe the total weight was just over 400 pounds. And yes has it's own electric over hydraulic power pack, same as the pickup truck plows. Also same as the Kubota K-Connect. I loved the Boss plow. worked good, easy on...

Don't worry. Kubota is notoriously bad for having mis-information....or at least bad translation from Japanese to English in their manuals. For instance the manual for my tractor says to not use a certain classification of motor oil, but the diesel engine oils it says not to use are the new...

Yes to this. All the same. They made all diesel low sulfur now. And buy from a place that sells high volume so you know you are getting good fuel.

No, we actually have good fuel in this area. I think something might be not adjusted properly after dealer installed the hand throttle and K-Connect? Because I'm finding now that is running better after using it every day..........it got power back, but it doesn't seem to be recovering fast...

I wonder if there is any kind of power draw on it now from that PTO driveline even when it's not engaged? I had it out all afternoon picking up brush around the yard. Was a bit better again today. Fuel filter still looks good.

Finally took the snow blower off the RTV. And discovered I really need to use it more in the summer. It was horribly gutless! It used to be really strong, did a solid 24/25 MPH and climbed my hills at 7 MPH with a load of gravel and AC on. Took about 5 or 6 laps around property and up my hills...

Well, I loved the Ranger, but found out it's just as expensive to keep that thing going as the new ones. Thermostat went in it too, shift cable had to be replaced and now something is making the transfer case engage and disengage and dealer and a transmission shop can't figure it out. So, back...

Hello all. I haven't posted much about the RTV lately because ever since I put the K-Connect on it, the poor thing pretty much stays parked all summer and I use the other atv's for trail riding now. I guess it's now just our snow removal machine and dump truck for around the property. Even all...
