    Considering '06 RTV900 w/600 hrs

    Muddzy, I bought a used '06 for $8,500 2 years ago (only had 14 hours and was basically in brand new condition) So, $7,900 sounds a little on the high side but depends on the model, etc. Mine is a worksite w/hydr dump. I have the original bill of sale so I know the original owner paid $11,100...

    Shifter still very sticky

    Thanks muleman Yes, that is some mighty low usage. I bought her used in 2012 with 14 hours on her.

    Shifter still very sticky

    I know from reading posts that the shifting is supposed to get easier once the machines get broken in but I am not seeing much change after breaking the 50-hour mark on my '05 rtv 900. It is still really hard to get it to shift from "m" to "r" but pulling the relief valve and turning the wheel...

    first trans fluid change on rtv 900

    i changed out the fluid using PEPR's instructions and worked like a charm---thanks for the advice about opening the fill cap and repositioning the catch bucket. saved me time and mess--can't beat that.
