    X1100 Light Bar attachment

    In case anyone is interested, I made up these simple and rugged brackets to attach a light bar to the bumper. The material is 2 x 2 x .188 angle iron that I sheared into shape with an ironworker, but a bandsaw or hacksaw would have been just as good. A couple of holes and all is well. The...

    My version of a backup light

    You guys got me thinking, made me spend a little money and take on a worthwhile project. I often back out of the garage at night and usually my car is in the driveway, requiring me to navigate around it. If it's dark and the headlights are on, there is glare looking thru the rear glass...

    Dashboard Retainer

    The flat space over the heater control is handy, but there is nothing to keep things placed there from vibrating off. I designed a fence to be attached containing the area. The part has a inside flange with screw holes, but double sided tape should be just fine. If there is sufficient...

    1100c Bedliner question

    A dealer is prepping a 1100c for me. I have had a plastic bed liner in my 900 since new. It has earned it’s keep and has protected the steel from countless scrapes and bumps. The dealer has been advised that since the new machine has a spray in bedliner, the plastic one will not fit. I...

    Where are the RTV1100's?

    After all the hype earlier this year, what has happened? A local dealer said that he had several sold, but still waiting. Have there been technical problems? Or have pre-ordered machines been going out right away? Bob

    Was "Almost an owner", Now an Owner!

    The dealer finally got the machine all together and did a nice job installing the accessories on the machine. I will probably be working on making it the way I want it for quite some time. I already made a small bracket to stiffen the mounting of the rear work light. The work lights have...

    Kubota RTV vs Bobcat Toolcat

    I first saw a Bobcat Toolcat at the Farm Progress show in Decatur Illinois a few weeks ago. I was quite impressed with the machine. As you probably read in my "almost a new owner" post, I was looking to replace my Kaw Mule. I had ordered a RTV but nearly a month later the dealer still has not...
