    2016 x1100c rim size and bolt pattern

    Unless they changed the size in 2017, that should be right. My 2017 came stock with the size you stated. I mounted 26x12x12 tires on my machine shortly after purchasing it, they fit the 8.5" wide rims just fine.

    X1100C wiper coverage

    Thanks guys....I guess the answer is "they all do that". I won't have to try to fix it...just learn to live with it. Still feel that could have been engineered a bit better.

    X1100C wiper coverage

    Just a quick question about your wiper.....does it clear the whole windshield, or only about 2/3 of it? (the drivers side) Seems to me it should make a full sweep, but thought I'd ask before tearing things apart.

    X1140 Tie Rod replacement

    Thanks for taking the time it took, to post the conclusion of your repair. I know there are a lot of us who dislike a thread that's missing the final chapter. Glad it all worked out so well.....and $60 in parts isn't too bad.....believe I have nearly that invested in oil filters, for my...

    X1100C tire shopping

    I couldn't agree more. Different strokes, for different folks. I started at 16 psi with the Mud Lites, then lowered to 14....then to 12....and finally to the present 10 psi. There is still no bulging / bellying out, of the sidewalls. Of course, I'm not loading to the max, and the wider a tire...

    X1100C tire shopping

    I mounted a set of 26x12x12, ITP Mud Lite XL's, on my factory, 8.5" rims without a problem. For my type of riding, anticipated loads, and terrain, I wanted something a bit wider as well as a bit taller. Machine only had 15 miles on it, so I have a basically new set, of original 25x10x12 tires...

    RTV X1120 Electric Radiator Fan will not stop running

    My guess is a faulty thermal switch.....it's stuck in the closed position, and therefore, grounding / completing the circuit. Most electric fans, as you have found out, are hot constantly (ignition on or off). It's only when the temp sensor / thermal switch closes, completing the circuit, that...

    Turbo for X900?

    Doing some searching around recently I found this site: http://www.mag-motoren.com/Einstelldatenbl%E4tter/Einstelldaten%20Kubota%2005-Serie%20(EPA%20Tier%202).pdf There are numerous differences, as stated above, in naturally aspirated, and turbo charged engines. If you check out the link, and...

    X1100C Air Cleaner question

    I found the answer, just needed to spend a little more time searching the internet, then do some basic math. The specs listed below were found at Einstelldaten Kubota, and are for the "Tier 2" group of engines. I don't imagine the valve timing on the current "Tier 4" engine is much different...

    X1100C Air Cleaner question

    I removed the air cleaner today.....did a 5 second test run, found it still blowing air out. So the cleaner has nothing to do with it. Note to aurthurtis: If it's blowing at this end of the hose, it would be at the other end where it attaches to the intake manifold. Since others have reported...

    4WD chirp

    You didn't mention what model machine you have, or the year. I can tell you that my new x1100c produces a lot of noise if the front end, when running 4 wheel drive. I too get an occasional grinding noise from the right front, if wheels are slightly turned, while motoring along in 4WD. I don't...

    X1100C Air Cleaner question

    Well thanks for checking guys. Seems to be a normal thing for the X1100's. I think I'll detach the air cleaner....start it up, and check the hose up under the hood. This must have something to do with the air cleaner itself.

    X1100C Air Cleaner question

    Alaskanassasine said: "Mine does the same thing! If I stick my hand in front of the intake it feels like its blowing but if you cover it you can really feel the suction. I dangled a rag in front of it and it blew it away from the intake but same thing if it cover it the rag gets sucked in...

    X1100C Air Cleaner question

    Let me start by saying I purchased a new X1100C a month and a half ago. Hour meter is now stands at 24. I'm new to this forum, and to the Kubota RTV brand, but have over 50 years of experience with diesel engines of all sizes. Owned a Kubota B-8200 for 24 years, ran as good the day I sold it...
