Thanks for the follow up picture 10-e-c. That looks like a good location - any clearance issues when the bed comes back down? Is that "green thing" the elec fuel pump and the unit directly next to it a canister filter? In my vintage RTV 900 I don't have the same amount of space behind the seat...

finally decided to purchase an electric fuel pump for my 2007 RTV 900 to minimize the slow starts and rough idle when the tank is less than half full. I have followed the threads on this but missed where about is a good location to mount the pump and also a specific location for the wire up - -...

Get well Soon! I can't wait to follow more of your engine rebuild progress and devour your pics! Great job!

Glad you made progress! Any pictures to share so we can see where exactly that pesky wire is located? Thanks

My 2007 RTV900 has something similar - - - I cleaned both battery posts and cable connectors well AND disconnected/cleaned the chassis ground connection. solved my problem. Keep us posted if you figure your specific problem out!

Very Nice Job! Please let us know how it works and if you like the modification. Got gravel here also so very interested Thanks

Thanks for the prompt reply Collie! Indeed - I solved the problem by removing the two ground cables(battery to body and main ground to body located right next to battery ground) cleaning them, coating with dielectric grease and reattaching. Did the same thing to battery posts - both pos/neg. In...

Greetings All! Got a 2007 RTV900 that has slowly developed an annoying problem with the headlights. When you turn on the lights from the dash switch, sometimes they come on immediately - other times it literally take minutes for the lights to come on. Sometimes they do not come on at all...

Can someone direct me to where these idle adjustment screw are located - perhaps a picture if available? What's the deal with the "lead seal" = an indicator that no service tech was messing around with it??

Looks like the accelerator cable (red arrow, part # 180 in the attached schematic) is not fully releasing the attached link. The accel cable is attached to the linkage (green arrow in schematic). That linkage has a zerk (grease ) fitting on it to allow movement. Wondering if the linkage is...

Thanks Collie! I did check that after your suggestion and as far as I can tell there is no apparent binding - moves freely and nothing hung up. I'll continue to look...

For some unknown reason the 'bota started idling faster. Not sure why but it is noticeable. I have searched the forum and service manual to find what screws and their location to turn to remedy this but was unable to get the information - likely I an not using the right search terms. Would...

Great - many thanks for the advice and links Collie. I'll update when I get the part. Good to know about the bearing direction - would not thought of that!

Thanks all for the discussion and links - sounds like my bearing also is going bad - 2007 RTV900 w/~1000hrs. Messicks sells the part (k7561-16852/bearing-radial) for ~$60 not including S/H. Any tips/suggestions on the replacement process to be aware of? Thanks for any help - - Happy New Year!

wow = none of this sounds good. What/where is this carrier bearing and how can I check - - got a 2007 RTV 900 w/ ~1000 hrs Thanks

did you try pressing the accelerator pedal a time or two right BEFORE cranking? My 2007 RTV900 behaves the same. Interesting, when I cleaned out the spark arrestor (located inside the muffler) this temporarily solved the problem.

Agree with Mark's comment re: battery hook up, relay, switch and fused appropriately - be safe! I really like these harnesses https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/wire-harness-relay/led-light-wiring-harness-with-switch-and-relay-single-channel/1753/4083/

Following several recent threads here - - gonna get multiple LED lights (likely the 48W spots, up to 4- 6 of 'em) for plowing/back lighting. I've pretty much identified the lights (thanks to many posts here) and wondering if any one has recommendations on how to wire these up. Thinking 4 48W...

Thanks for the follow up link - I was also looking at that beast as a possibility. question - what did you do for a wiring harness - - looks like it is 300W, that's a lot of power Thanks

WOW - that's a great looking bar! Got a link ? I'm concerned about the added height to get in my garage. Thanks!
