Kubota RTVs - how do they handle off road?

   / Kubota RTVs - how do they handle off road? #61  
When I took the gator on my land the rear wheels would lock and I would continue sliding down the gravel trail... without 4wd or brakes on the front there is no control... I drive my Kubota on the trail all the time and in 4wd the hydo has complete control...

Just having 4wd would give braking control to both axles...

With 4 season tracks basically any UTV will be an offroad monster even a 2wd unit. It says nothing for the machine you will be buying from the dealer with tires instead. Too bad you lose so much speed with tracks, a 25 mph Kubota turns into 15 mph top speed machine I'm not sure even guys that are happy with stock Kubota speed could take a full day of that.:laughing:

Been four wheeling since the 1960's, has nothing to do with speed, that's why there is BMW in the garage. HS

And I've been ATVing since the early 80's.
I like the ability to go slow trail riding and look at the wildlife.
But I also want the ability to go 50, 60, 70 MPH speeds on the back roads when I want.
If an certain ATV can't do both I will buy the one the can.

Someone doing 70mph on a "back road" on an ATV has a death wish. That's not just dangerous it's stupid. HS

My neighbor and I went on a ride earlier today and I couldn't get more than 65 out of my ATV today for some reason.

Ha!! I got all you all beat! I went at least 25 mph in my RTV this afternoon while tooling around the farm flushing the coolant system out.

The neighbor's thought I was just playing around, but it was clear that I was working hard cleaning and flushing that coolant stuff out - it just might not have been all that obvious to the non-informed or oblivious......

Ok, dumb question for the day:

What is the bolt size for the winch mounting plate on the front bumper. There are four threaded holes. They are not inch threads.

Thanks,
