    RTV-900 vs. RTV-XG850: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

    Ok I hope i don't complicate this answer. My original factory set-up with steel rims. Each hub had 2 threaded holes & 2 threaded studs. Therefore there are 2 threaded stud nuts(appx.1.25"long) & 2 regular nuts attaching each steel wheel. My new "Vision" aluminum wheels are much thicker...

    RTV-900 vs. RTV-XG850: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

    Cannot say for sure if 28" would not rub. I have experienced no rubbing with 27" with a load of wood in bed. I have the shocks set at factory specs with my X-1100-C cab. So there is some room to adjust shocks for 28" i am guessing.

    I bought the tire/wheel combo that was on display at ("Aldermans" in Lennon Mi. 810-621-4201). The aluminum wheels are Vision ; VW-3502711214. The tires are Journeys. Hope that helps.

    Mice In Pole Barn

    Yes, I think the peppermint idea is more effective for putting it (in small spaces) like under the hood of a vehicle. I agree to the 5 gallon bucket idea.

    front suspension broke X1100C

    That is really strange that this happened. Maby over the last 7,000 miles every time you go into jounce/rebound the shaft tends to rotate ever so slightly? Especially if there is no locking device on the rod. You can't blame the Eye for this, probably, the shaft.

    RTV-900 vs. RTV-XG850: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

    I bought (27/10/14) tires, Aluminum rims, all stud hardware, (necessary to adapt from factory steel rims) complete. $1,100. The, brand new 2020, factory HD Worksite tires (25/10/12) let me down approx 6 miles deep in the woods. My own fault going over too many stumps LOL. Had no choice but to...

    RTV 1100 factory outside mirrors.

    I find the factory ones to be just OK. Mine will stay in place until i hit just the smallest of twigs. Kubota missed the mark on their mirrors for sure.

    RTV-900 vs. RTV-XG850: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

    I put on a set of: Vision P-350 Journey (27/10/14) tires. Probably a similar lug pattern to the Blackwater tires. No problem getting up the grades. That's good to see that the sidekick has the downhill breaking system. Looks like a nice package (massicks video) in the sidekick.

    RTV-900 vs. RTV-XG850: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

    I have 2 very steep approaches to our small lake. Maby 35/40 degree steep. It is very comforting knowing that i will make it up with my X1100C. Do not need any hassle in my life at 80. LOL.

    RTV-900 vs. RTV-XG850: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly?

    I guess if you have a need for speed get the Sidekick. Or RZR. I am thinking the RTV may have more (long term) dependability. Just my opinion.

    Hydraulice Line Size

    Looking at the 2015 vintage WSM the Hydraulic Control Valve (which activates the lift cyl) generates 1820 to 1950 psi @ 3000 rpm. Need lines capable of handling that range. Maby knowing this, plus, measuring the existing hose dia's will help. I cannot find any info on the actual hose sizes in...

    Under seat insulation

    Good advice. I am going to try doing the same as You. I will see if garden hose "washers" (installed btw frame & each pan attachment) will work.

    Under seat insulation

    Can you show a picture of the finished "floor insulation" on your RTV? I am still not clear where you start and stop the insulation. Thanks.
