    Time to change the tires on the RTV900

    Those GRs look good! GRs were my 2nd choice. But I eventually decided on Backwater Evolutions, primarily based on Bordercollie (or maybe it was oversized - anyway it was one of 'em). Most of the other tires I reviewed looked like they would be great for an ATV but not for a 2000 lb RTV with...

    Light Upgrade to the RTV

    After an encounter with a trespasser a couple weeks ago, I decided I needed to do a light upgrade to the RTV. First up were some 18W/1200 lumen lights from Signstek off of Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GLLW3AM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 These are the same...

    Time to change the tires on the RTV900

    I run 26" on all four corners, BW Evolutions; 8 ply tires, will carry the load of an RTV plus it's cargo (+1100 lbs). Personally, I wouldn't run anything less than 6 ply in a RTV. And they look great to boot!

    Show us your RTV @work today....

    Added a Camera Mark I to the RTV in case of trespassers. It's an old Canon Sureshot set at 680p i.e. better than nothing:

    Loaded tires

    Where are you located? - US Siberia (aka MI, WI, MN, ND etc. etc. etc) - probably methanol, beet juice or RV antrfreeze. - US South of KY, probably water. Take some out, put it in a five gallon bucket. Throw a lighted match into it. If the match goes out, it's probably water. If there is a...

    I can't stand web sites that won't tell you the price of what they are trying to sell! How much did it cost? Thanks,

    06 kubota rtv no power? transmission?

    If my 2006 RTV can go down - and more importantly up - this hill, then you should have no trouble as well. In LOW obviously. good luck!

    Rolled my RTV today - sorry no pics!

    Yea, it came from the engine, it was black as the ace of spades. If you mean do I know how it got there: I can only assume that it came out of the crankcase and found it's way to the air passages and then to the air cleaner. Other than that, I'm in the dark as much as the oil was....

    Rolled my RTV today - sorry no pics!

    Oh my bad, I forgot about this! I went into the shop Monday AM with a big puddle of oil coming out of the air cleaner assembly. Since it rolled onto it's left side and the air cleaner is on the right side, I didn't think this was a good thing. So, other than lifting the bed like discussed...

    Rolled my RTV today - sorry no pics!

    It never went upside down, just over on the driver's side. I too, would like to hear suggestions of things to do before attempting to start it. Is there any way to get the dump bed up without the hydraulics (engine needs to be started)? I'm not planning to do anything with it until this...

    Rolled my RTV today - sorry no pics!

    Don't know yet. Nothing major broken that I could see (except for perhaps the rear view mirror). I parked it and left it yesterday evening and haven't been out there yet this morning. And it almost didn't roll over at all. It took quite a while to lay over, I almost had time to get under it...

    Rolled my RTV today - sorry no pics!

    Did the weekly tour of my farm this afternoon after doing some outdoors type work around the house. Went down my hill in front of the house, usual route, no big deal. Got to the bottom and made my right turn and went about 50 feet and found my route blocked with a newly fallen tree limb. It...

    ITP Blackwater Evolution 27" tire upgrade

    Blackwater Evolutions SUCK! Let's see if we can count the ways: - They look great on my RTV, see pics below - Huge carrying capacity, especially vs. my old crappy Craptyles 489s - Who needs 4wd anymore? Even up and down my hills - Did I mention they look great? Did I mention pics? And these...

    Options other than $1250 glass windshield

    Whatever you do, don't try to get one from Ray Shatzer of Ray's Windshields. I tried that a couple years ago and it took over 4 months to get my money back. What a POS. I *think* he's out of business now but just in case he's not. I posted this on TBN three times and it was censored out (or...

    RTV Daily uses, What did you do today with your RTV?

    Welcome to the forum! I went from 25x10-12 tires to 26x11-12 and have experienced no loss of power or speed. It's still slow as heck but it just keeps on going and going.... No lift kit and no tire rubbing. I sorta wish I had gone with 27's but oh well. Pics: New ITP Blackwater Evolutions...
