    changing front tire width on rtv

    26x11x12 BajaCross tires work well on 4 corners of a 900...no rub issues. After two months of serious abusive use along river bottoms I've heard one rub with wheel turned to lock on a hard hit, once...and it was real faint - may not even been a rub. Anyway, best tires I've ever ran on an RTV...

    Enough of that radiator location!

    BY upgrading the 900 to the 11's power-plant what you really gain is the ability to turn larger/heavier tires without the normal sacrifice in performance. An obvious byproduct is an equivalent to higher gearing, which will net you a few MPH, if that matters to ya...never has to me. I don't...

    I have a CanAm XMR 1000. XMR stands for Extreme Mud Racer...a quad factory designed strictly for mud racing, none of which I actually do. I just wanted a machine that flat would not get stuck in the mud along White River here in Central Indiana. Anyway, this machine is built off the "Two-Up"...

    In this photo you can see the spiked steps I added...got tired of ripping my shins off when it was icy and wet...now if it happens though, I'm probably going to need a few stitches. ;) Can also see the 1100s bumper I added...I think it does a better job of deflecting brush away from the plastic...

    Not exactly a Kubota but, this me and my other passion...Screamin Eagle CVO bikes. I thought about fitting my RoadKing with knobby tires and consolidating my goodtimes...not sure if that's be cheaper, or more expensive. Either way, I'd probably be no farther, nor less in the...

    Carbonite limbs are used on my favorite hunting bows by Hoyt, and although I have several bow options, I still hunt with the Hoyt Enticer with those limbs. Hence, CarboniteHunter. No cutting was done on the frame rails...a frame was constructed for the exact dimensions of the oil tank, and...

    Thanks for the warm welcome, folks. Been an RTV owner since 2005...just always been too busy to join any discussions/boards/forums, although to be honest, I've benefited many times by viewing from the sidelines. A wealth of information resides on your site, to be sure of it. Mix that with my own...

    This is only one minor modification, by the way. This machine is so modified it hardly can be called a 900 anymore; Has an 1100 drive-train (Required front cross-member being cut out and a new one with cradle-mounts constructed and welded back in 1 1/2" further forward. Used the 1100 donor...

    Enough of that radiator location!

    Man, I have so had enough replacing my radiator. I love Kubota and have forever, but forever I've had to ask what Kubota was thinking with that rad placement? From 04 up they did a couple modifications, one of which allegedly created more fresh air but, in doing so, also created more openings...
