I have A Kubota RTV1100 that has blown the head gasket twice. First time it was a cracked head, this time I am wondering if I should just replace the motor with a rebuilt one. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I don't have the extra 10 to 15K it would take to replace the machine with a newer one. Only 1300 hours on this machine. It looks great and everything works great. It just takes some antifreeze every day.

I replaced the head, and it ran find for about 200 hours and now we are back to putting antifreeze in it every day.

Pull it apart, if it cracked the head again, you have a cooling system issue.
And yes if it cracked the head again I would consider a full rebuild.
Look at the radiator, hoses, fan and water pump very carefully.
