2024 Massimo T Boss 550 UTV Real life review from Tennessee hill country

[@rudyallen4]

Man I love mine. So far so good Enjoyed the review

[@jefsel881]

I'm working on a 2018 550. It's at the 500 hour service interval. Can't find anyone to service it. Was running rough and the rear axle is broke. Rides rough. Start by pulling the seat, box and all the bottom and rear panels off. Changed oil in 3 gearboxes and engine. The oil filter is on top of the engine, messy. New spark plug, old one looked good, color good. Came in with a snapped left rear axle. Ordered a new one $259 with shipping from Hisun, comes with the boots and CV joints attached. Lucky to be able to reuse the gearbox CV race/shaft. Otherwise Id have to pull the rear end apart. The left front wheel bearing needs to be replaced. Ordered a bearing kit with both sides including seals from eBay $43. My take away is that you get a good value, but maintenance is a problem if you can't do it yourself. Adjusted the springs for a better ride that has to be tuned in with 3 adjustments per shock, not different than other models. Seems like a maintenance hog too if you read the service recommendations in the owners manual (Boss 550). I haven't found the mid range, rough running source yet since the rear axle was broken. I have that to look forward to. Anyone else have a mid range engine misfire? How about the transmission belt, has anyone replaced that? How many hours on it?

Man sounds like trouble! Yeah if you can't find a place to service it and you can't do it yourself I agree may not be a good value. I would think that as they continue to roll them out that they would be providing service contractors for them, but I don't know for sure. You save thousands up front.. But maybe in the long run who knows. Good info though thanks!

Where I get parts for my LS tractor they sell one similar but what I did notice was it didn't have a dipstick just a sight glass which a person would have to la on the ground to see it, maybe. I know they were selling that brand at Lowe's but now they carry a jacked up golf cart, forget that! I had a golf cart in Florida. I tried getting into one of those at tsc, my problem is my height is all in the legs and I couldn't hardly get it. A Polaris isn't any better, here in Lebanon Missouri at S&H they sell Polaris but they aren't very friendly there. To service some of these aren't very easy, after watching some KZbin videos.

Good Review Joe❤. Love the attention to detail. Hahhahahah the cup holder

[@kapperoutdoors]

lmao see, I pay attention, and glad you were too!!

[@bobpaterson1845]

Nice in depth review Mr K 👌

[@kapperoutdoors]

Thank you sir, much appreciated. Have a great week!

[@brianrolfe1742]

I bought this model last November at my local Tractor Supply. Black Friday price 8999.99, no sales tax. Recently noticed the speedo is set to Kilometers. Have to change that and find the leads to mount a top light. I noticed the slider button on the touchpad for a top light. Also plan on taking some PVC pipe that fits the vertical holes along the top edges of the bed sides and build a frame for and find or have a fitted cover made for that frame to enclose the bed.

[@wolfy3021]

Would you recommend Kioti rx 7330 with cab and powershuttle for agriculutral only use on a farm size of 70 acres for plowing, power harrowing and etc.

[@kapperoutdoors]

Depends on the field sizes and work to be done. If you are saying most of the 70 acres is ag fields and needs mowing, planting, hay bailing, etc, then yes the bigger RX7320 would be a good choice. Best of luck thanks

[@mileshiles1287]

Great review.

[@kapperoutdoors]

Thank you, I appreciate it. It was a great time being out in the field too!

[@clarkwheeler8764]

I've gotten so accustomed to all the Kapper Kumfort Features required on your rides that this one is completely outclassed. Don't see you ever buying one of these, but if you did, I would expect it to be relegated to a place collecting dust and mouse nests next to your electric moped. So as a review--how many stars are you actually giving it???

[@kapperoutdoors]

I'd have to use it longer for a full star rating but for the price point, 1 yr warranty and what it offers I'd have to say initial rating at 4/5.

[@clarkwheeler8764]

Really 4/5??? Well I guess Harbor Freight tools get the same kind of ratings "for the price point"...but the same (made in China) tools gets lots of 1/5 2/5 ratings which tells me all I need to know!! smh

[@anonymousanonymous8454]

🤔 wonder where my phone or pc parts are made that I’m viewing this video on?

[@farm.moore.longleaf]

Parts / engine made in China? Assembled in Dallas? Just guessing.

[@kapperoutdoors]

Yes it is an import from China or another region depending on where they have their manufacturing.

[@revelationdetailers894]

I believe but could be wrong.....the engine is a Yamaha or Suzuki engine??? They are pretty much bullet proof if you keep them serviced.

[@Jerry-jy7jm]

Sounds like a rod knocking

[@dustdevl1043]

That there's a dandy!

[@kapperoutdoors]

Hey it was a great time in the field, and that thing got the jobs done. Have a good week bud!

[@flywithanangel]

Should be under 7mph in low

[@philipcarlson8110]

Extremely underpowered, getting parts is about impossible, cant get anyone local to work on them so have to ship back to Texas and wait at least 6 months to get it back. Never again will I purchase one!

[@philipcarlson8110]

Mine is a 2022 so maybe have been some improvements

[@kapperoutdoors]

That is not cool! I heard that they are working out a dealer certified network of other dealers working on them!?

[@MrStealth654321]

JUNK

[@enriquesanchez7383]

Why do you say junk? I’m looking to buy one just curious

[@flywithanangel]

I bought it. Respect the break in time. ​@@enriquesanchez7383
