RTV X900 HST Pedal Sensitivity

I'm not certain if this is an issue or not. I have a X900 (around 70 hours) and I feel like the accelerator pedal is not as sensitive as it used to be. I have to push it down a considerable amount until the machine starts to move. Max speed is normal at 25 MPH or so. The cable that connects to the throttle(fuel injector I would guess?) seems taught and normal.

I'm comparing to the pedal on my B2650 which I'm sure IS different but that pedal starts to move the machine right away.

Any thoughts on this?

My X900 has immediate response to the “go pedal”. (don’t think of it as an “accelerator”…because it’s not. It moves the swash-plate and is secondarily tied to the fuel pump outlet (speed/rpm).

It sounds as if yours needs adjustment. (70-hrs…still under warranty?)

Went back out there this morning and looked around. Lengthening the HST rod was the fix for me. The pedal stop needed to be adjustment to prevent over travel. All else seems fine and I'm back to what feels like normal again.
