One of the real helps the RTV is to me is moving from farm to farm at planting and harvest. I move the seed tender in the spring and head trailers in the fall. Gets in and out of gates easier that a pickup pulling a 25 foot head. And if you aren't lined up straight when putting head on trailer...

I just wanted to share my opinion about rhino lining the bed of the RTV. I had it worked out with my dealer on the last RTV trade to have this done to the bed. It is awesome and really makes the machine run without any bed rattle. Plus it makes the bed have more grip and stuff doesn't slide...

You re right they are handy. I have a 2012 RTV900XT with 300 hrs. Use it on the farm all the time. I live in Indiana and for the last two days we have had 12 inches of snow and the actual temp was -13 today. Wind chill has been in the -30's. I went out today to see if the RTV would start...

My fault it is hy-guard for tranny and plus 50 II in the engine. My mistake.

I have always used the John Deere hyguard 15W40 and John Deere Hytran in the transmission. I take it out of the bulk tanks. I also have napa gold filters on it. If you cut the kubota filters apart and the napa filters apart they are the same thing. Right down to the number of pleats in the...

Ok I will wait til breakin iis over. 15 hrs on it now. It isn't real bad I just thought it might have more zip than it does. It had a slow hydraulic leak coming from the hose that goes into the dump bed reservoir. I just tightened the hose clamp and it stopped. I have not pulled anything of...

I just traded my 2009 rtv 900 in for a new 2012 rtv900 XT. It is basically the same machine from what I can tell. Extra radiator for the rear end fluid and a little different seat. I have noticed that the new one is a little lacking in power. If you drive into the wind it will slow it down...

Has anyone mounted a Jenson Heavy Duty Radio 910 in your kubota rtv 900? If you have where did you put it so it is a nice install. Thanks.

I see. It looks like they just dropped another radiator in front of the engine fan to keep extra air running through it. I bet you can lift the bed and still get to it to blow it out if you need to. Looks like you will need too! I hope this new one is as good as the old one. I changed engine...

Well had the dealer price out an XTS and it came in 900 dollars more than the XT worksite model. The alloy wheels are expensive and kubotas bed lining is too. So I talked him into a rhino lining bedliner done local and a black plastic roof on it for the same price. Also he is giving me 250...

Thank you. It sounds like the air hose with the long gun will still come in handy.

Thank you. That's the stuff I need to know. Is there some way to know the temp of the transmission so you know if this new cooler is getting plugged. An idiot light or something? The reason I ask is that during soybean harvest there is a lot of fine dust or hair that is on the beans. After you...

Are the crome rims a pain when it comes to scratching them during general farm work. We work grain farm in Indiana. Picking rocks. Spot spraying. Hauling seed. About everything. Our old one is getting 400 hrs a year. So we use it about everyday. Just don't worry about them and use it? I patch...

I am looking to trade in my RTV 900 that is three years old. Does anyone know what the difference between a RTV900XT and a RTV900XTS? Does the S package cost less than setting up a general purpose with the same options?

Yes there is a definite wine to it when it is in 4 wheel drive. That is how I can tell if it is still in four wheel drive after you put it back into two wheel drive. Sometimes you have to stop or back up to get it to release. Pretty soon your steering wheel will squeak when you turn it. Never...
