    Betting on Weight on the RTV

    keep the money, this guy sounds like a real winner(whiner). He is probably telling anyone who will listen that the scale was rigged. I understand brand loyalty to a point, I been an orange man for a long time. But, I also realize that all of the major manufactures make good equipment. This is a...

    Another RTV 1100 new owner

    </P> Glad you are pleased with the machine. I live near Albany, NY so I know what you mean about the ground this time of year. I got the worksite tires as I use the machine mostly around my property. I have 15 acres, with about 7 1/2 in grass so the worksite tires go easy on the turf. They are...

    Another RTV 1100 new owner

    Well, I hate to say I told you so.....I'm very glad you are as pleased with your 1100 as I am with mine. And, yes, the heated cab is sweet. Sometimes when I am driving through the fields or the woods and its 35 degrees and the wind is blowing I almost feel guilty. The longer I own this machine...

    ***** KUBOTA ADVERTISEMENT ?

    JohnR,</P> I went through the same thing before I got the rtv1100, exceptI had pre-ordered it so I had to rely on the reviews for the rtv900. Spending 15k for a machine is alot of money so I was very apprehensive. Was it going to be underpowered, too slow, won't go up hills, won't shift, too...

    Expect to pay 15k to 17k. Most dealers are selling them for 16,250.00 or close to that. Some who pre-ordered paid 15k. I have heard some dealers asking for more than 17k. You might want to wait a while until there are units sitting on the lot, right now the units that trickle in are pre-sold or...

I do intend to do some modifications to the engine...to an extent that I am sure some will think is radical and stupid. I will reveal more at a later date. I have modified...

    Engine Swap A comin!

    A hp increase will not increase the top speed of the RTV as that is determined by the transmission, gearing and hydro pump. A hp increase should increase the rate of acceleration and the pulling power of the machine. More powerful, just not faster. Increasing the top speed would require changes...

    Engine Swap A comin!

    There are entire industries devoted to "messing" with perfectly running engines. The SEMA show in Vegas draws thousands of vendors. I have a 67 Camaro that came from the factory with a perfectly running motor. It currently has a 350 V8 with a 6-71 blower, dual carbs etc. good for 700hp...

    Engine Swap A comin!

    At a minimum you will need to refer to a kubota engine manual. I suggest you take the machine to an good diesel mechanic along with the manual.The timing of the fuel pump is advanced/retarded by the use of shims under the fuel pump. The manual gives you infomation regarding the differences in...
