    RTV Engine Oil Color

    This may be a diesel question rather than just RTV. I noticed that the engine oil in my 1120D turned black not long after changing. In my gasoline vehicles, the oil stays like honey until it has many hours on it. I just wanted to know if this is normal. If this happened in a gas engine so...

    new tires

    I took mine to National Tire and Battery which is in Ohio. The guy wouldn't even take money from me to do it. My Wife and I returned with Pizza and Pop lunch for his crew. I still think we came out ahead. I am told the bead is mighty stiff. 100 bones might not be a bad deal, hate to say it.

    new tires

    I completely understand your thinking One other thing to consider. You know those monster trucks that blast through the mud? If you look, all four tires are the same size. I don't know why, it just seems to work.

    new tires

    We operate in red clay a lot and on uneven terrain most of the time. For that reason, we went with the 11" tire. We put the same size on all four corners for stability on that uneven terrain. We chose the 26s because they look better and create not clearance issues of any kind. We have have had...

    new tires

    We have an X1120 with Blackwater Evolutions 26x11x12 all the way around. No clearance issues, no power changes, no noticable change in speedometer. I run 18-20psi year round and I do try to avoid the blacktop whenever possible. We probably could have gone with 27s but I wanted to have full...

    new tires

    I think it is the same one. And I am not sure what happened. I have never seen an RTV smashed up like that. I can only speculate that it indeed rolled over, more than once. I hope no one was hurt. And those tires seem really great for ATVs and on other less weighty machines. But on these 2000...

    What Brand of Diesel Treatment Do You Use?

    My neighbor scolded me for not using some kind of diesel treatment in the RTV, the BX and the 5 gal diesel cans. I don't usually have to operate them in subzero weather but you never know. He suggested "Howes Diesel Treat" but there are many others out there. Any of them better than that...

    Battery Source

    I am going to hook up a dome light on the RTV-X1120 that needs full time 12vdc. I know there are ready 12vdc "switched" connectors under the dash and near the battery. Does anyone know if there is a ready 12vdc connector anywhere on the unit? My WSM did not show one. Hate to another wire to...

    Here's a "Talk About Anything" - II

    I rode a Harley trike once when I was overseas. It takes a bit of getting used to but soon I didn't want to give it back. I didn't care much for the vibration. But a Gold Wing trike would be the perfect trike platform. Probably smooth as silk.

    load capacity of Kubota tires.

    We are running the same tires as Doc on our 1120. These tires are more than strong enough to carry the RTV plus well over its rated payload. That's the way we like it.

    If You Are Looking for an RTVX1140....

    Our beloved "ALLPower" dealerships in Ohio appear to have been purchased by CEC Turf and Tractor. And as I am digesting that, I drive past Taylor and Sons that kind of started this thread with their influx of RTV-X1140s. Turns out they were also purchased by the same outfit. I just checked with...

    If You Are Looking for an RTVX1140....

    As far back as I can remember, Green's had businesses in Mount Sterling and out close to London. I do business with them regularly at Mt Sterling. At this time, they have locations in Mt Sterling and Marysville. They treat our whole family great. I think Taylor has been around for some time. But...

    Received my 1120

    Outstanding, great choice. I would recommend a roof and seat covers. Both will keep you a little cooler and dryer.
