Hi Bczoom. Yes I saw the ad on E-Bay that you had in your post, but I am not starting a Quadractor collection. I would however love a mint 1959 R-50 BMW with a sidecar. Just dreaming, but hay, it's almost spring. Kenta

Talk about ghosts from the past. I live in Vermont and the Quadractor was my first tractor. I had next to no money and saw this thing at a country fair. The dealer gave me the usual talk about how this will make logging and farming change and the 3rd world market will probably be a big market...

After searching all over and asking the people on line I contacted Carver Equipment. They are similar to Essex and Hunterworks for assessories for ATV's and RTV's like the Kubota and the John Deere, but no mirrors. Carver made up their own and it is a very simple, but sturdy rig. It is made up...

I must have missed this one. What is a new style lever. On another note I got used to the stopping that was talked about in the beginning back in Nov. or so. Some liked it some hated it. Personally I wouldn't give mine back or change over. I thought there was some talk of having it adjustable...

I am starting to use the RTV and am getting used to the technique of using the gears. I have a B-2910 with 3 speed HST, but I am usually snowblowing, so I don't notice the speed. When I went out and used the RTV in 4-wheel and 2-wheel and all 3 different speeds it seemed a little different. With...

I am reposting this subject. I am trying to find 2 mirrors that would fit the round tubing and look like truck mirrors. I might even add a center mirror. I can never have too many. Anyone find a dealer or install outside mirrors. They would be similar to the outside mirrors that Curtis supplied...

I'm sorry. I forgot to add this to the post below. The subject just says RTV900 worksite. I'll be more careful next time. Kenta

I had one more question for RTV 900 owners. I line-Xed my Chevy pickup 2 years ago and was happy with the job. I have heard a few of the guys try that on the dump body. Someone said to just take the body off and take it to the line-X shop. Anyone happy or unhappy with adding that to the RTV. I...

The tractor man came over last night and had the box with the upgrades or problem pieces. It turned out that my RTV was in the 20,000 numbers so I did have most of the parts. The hood past the graphite test so it was the right glue. I had a spark arrester on the muffler already. I had the white...

I know this isn't an answer to the chain question, but I still would suggust a winch. With a 90 hp Kubota and a winch that can pull 4 trees at once and pull 15,000 lbs. Just an idea. I love my Farmi and Kubota M-5400. I am jealous of your 90 HP. Just kidding. Kenta

I am considering a windshield for the unit, but would like to take it off in the summer and enjoy the bugs and warm air. My wife and I went for a ride in Nov. and turned around because the 40 degree air and windchill took the fun out of the ride. Anyone have a windshield and see an easy way to...

I am not sure anyone has asked what the kubota 5ft. snow blower can do, but I can tell you how last year went. I bought a B-2910 with the Kubota snowblower and it didn't arrive till Feb. 15. I live in central Vermont and we had an icy and small 5" snowfalls all winter. The man who plows my 1/2...

Finally bought one. After beating the subject to death I just gave the guy a check a they delivered the Kubota RTV900 worksite. I felt the price would go up next spring and I got stuck wondering if I should wait for the bugs to get worked out or on line fixes, etc. In the end I figured I have...

I have a deposit down on a new RTV900 worksite. With all these recalls and hassles I wonder if I should cancel the order and wait for next years models. The dealer gave me the old price increase story which is going to be true for everything, but it's just a thought. The model I am buying is a...

I have read all the posts on the Kubota and the different manufacterers that make similar models and I went with another orange. Last spring it was a B2910 with a snow blower and that was awsome with the job I had to do. I have had 10 Kubotas over the last 30 years and never regreted a one. The...
