Hi everyone. New to this forum. Have been poking around from time to time and enjoyed what I was reading so decided to join. Have a 2014 RTV x1100c. Its just a toy for me as I use it mainly to play with. The only work it has done is haul a wiener dog and weedwacker around.

:welcome: Congratulations on the Kubota RTV and the TBN join.:thumbsup:
I bought a RTV1140 a bit over 4 years ago for fun with the Grands but have ended up using it for some work. Wife and I both use it and the Grands, now 10 (twins).
Used it this week to go pick Grands up, they live about a mile and a half away. Roads/streets or our steep drive ways were unusable due to unusual deep snow (14" to 16"s) in Kentucky in a single day. First year I bought it was another unusual winter for Ky and I had to drive it down to the bottom of the hill to pick them up because vehicle couldn't get up the hill and schools were closed.
You'll find more uses for it than you thought after owning it for awhile.

First, welcome to the forum. The members here are great and have taught me how little I actually know on just about every subject. And I mean that in the best possible way. When you get your machine back, post some pics of both it and your winch install.

Thanks. There are a couple of service bulletins out for it and a few things I wanted fixed. They have been after me to get it there for the last couple of months so after dragging my feet I finely got it there. It well be there for the rest of the week, just a guess. I'm slow about stuff as you can tell so the winch project well also be milked. I did test fit the winch to make sure it would fit. After I ordered it I emailed Superwinch and they said it would not fit and to use Kubota's 4000 pound winch kit, its a Superwinch also. I don't know if they know that the 2014 x1100's are different from the 2013s and older or not. It fits perfect so my guess is they don't. Well post pictures when I do.

I don't currently own an RTV, but when I get home sometime this year, I'll be looking to purchase one....with the wife's possible consent of course. I'm leaning toward the X1120 and am already accessory shopping for a vehicle I don't even own. I was looking at the same model Superwinch you have, so it's good to know that it will work just fine..

From everything I've read, the 1120 is the same as your 1100, only without the cab. I'll be looking forward to anything you have to post concerning the RTV.

Welcome. Enjoy the collective experiences and knowledge found here. I just sold my Polaris Ranger 400 and purchased a Kubota X900 and have had it for three months plowing snow. It is a maintenance vehicle for me and I love it. The HST makes it a workhorse. Great climbing and descending. It is quiet and solid with good clearance. Cheers

First, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, be carful and come home safe. Take it you are Air Force. Our Pastor is retired Air Force. Yup, the Superwinch Terra 45SR well definitely fit. I had it and the hawse plate it came with bolted on. The reason Superwinch said it wouldn't fit was that it is a wide real with a 6.6 inch bolt pattern. On the x1100 front mount/bumper both bolt patterns are already pre drilled. I ordered mine from Amazon for $296.00. I have Amazon Prime so it was here in two days with no shipping charges or sales tax in this case.
Take care, Harry

I was wrong about the sales tax. I did have to pay sales tax on the winch. $315 and some change, still it was the best deal by far ordering it thought amazon that I had found.
