Kubota RTV 900-sticks in reverse

Mine was real stiff like that when new. It will break in and get better.

I think the pressure in the HST tends to hold it in gear too. The only way I can get mine to shift easily is to use a firm foot on the brake pedal.

Did you tweak it so it would make more power in reverse?

RTV's do make a lot of power in the forward gears. If you try to take on too much it will kill the engine.

Where they are feeble is in reverse. The engine won't quit because it triggers some sort of hydraulic bypass. Bury the wheels in 4 inches of sand and it does nothing in reverse. It just sits there. The engine races, but the wheels refuse to turn.

Whatever. It is hard to imagine something engineered so well in other aspects and so deficient in another.

How do you trust something to take you off road, miles from home, when it will not back itself DOWN A HILL after getting stuck?

It makes no sense to have a reverse gear that will go 15 mph while the low/forward gear maxes out at half that speed.
