I have a 2019 RTV 1140 with about 60 hours and 1000 miles. The right rear tire is extremely worn on the outer 1/3 of the tread. The other tires all seem to be wearing normal. I feel like this has happened in the last 50 miles. The last time I cleaned it up (about 50 miles ago) it was not noticeable. It is at the dealership and they are telling me they can't find anything wrong with it. I feel like there has to be something that has happened recently that has caused this. Any body ran across a similar situation?

I'd jack it up and turn the rear wheel(s) by hand. See if there's some kind of hard drag on it. If so, go from there

If it is a 2019 model, It would be an RTV-X1140, not an RTV1140. They are two completely different critters.
Check the coil springs on the rear shocks and see if they are adjusted to the same setting.
