[QUOTE=DRankin;154553] Whatever is going on here, I am certain George Bush is at the bottom of it. If only Gore was president none of this would be happening. [/QUOTE]

I hate to ask but you are not serious on this statement are you? With Gore being the tree hugger and the climate war monger and such.

It is not only the Democrats but they have for the most part been the leaders who have taken that stand in making laws and regulations. It amazes me we elect such "STUPID" people once but keep electing them. I am not just talking Democrats. No way the current leadership in the Democrat Party is going to solve all of our problems and soon we will have all the oil we need from Iran and the other countries that are not a threat that ole Obama will be able solve our relationship problems with by being so giving. kt

On your name, both bring smiles.

I suspect you are thinking you will continue to use your 9N when you buy new more than you will. The steering and brakes improvement will be enough you will find less and less desire to use the 9N. And if you have the carb trouble my family did with those another reason. Not throwing off on them. kt

Bcaech: Good choice. I purchased a 2305 with 62C MMM, CX-200 FEL and ballast box about a year ago. I have two acres to mow and am very pleased with the 2305. Be sure and order the ballast box and front work lights.

Hope you enjoy you new machine.

Don't over look dealerships. No idea there but here the price of used compact tractors vary widely. Highest in construction and lawn care industry area and lower in farming area. Not that many miles apart either. kt

MMMs don't transfer like rear attachments, but if you have access to both machines you could measure the relevant dimensions.

Hambrospiper,

It's rather ironic, in this case, that Yanmar may have stained its name and reputation by aligning itself with a sometimes, and often questionable product made under the Cub Cadet label.

Cub Cadet has a rather shady reputation here in the U.S. This is in part due to the many short-term marketing agreements they've had with many various manufacturers over the years.

Quite frankly, many of the products previously produced under the Cub Cadet name weren't very good.

This new agreement, with Yanmar, appears to be a very long-term relationship. Yanmar has invested billions of dollars in the new manufacturing plants in Georgia. If I'm not mistaken, Yanmar intends to produce over 100,000 diesel engines for the U.S. market, from just one of its plants, this year alone. Some of those engines will end up going into the Cub Cadet line of compact tractors. The balance will be installed in construction equipment, such as tow-along air compressors, excavators, electrical generators, etc.

Gebush,

I don't own a BX tractor, and never have. However, I've been reading through the various tractor discussion boards for nearly five years, and have read very few reports of any problems with the BX tractors.

There isn't much to worry about in the future. Once they get your machine up and running, you probably won't have any more problems with it.

Do not have a FEL but do run compact tractor even with field work and loader tires with no water in tires. It is 4 wh and have at times had to use that to pull sprayer or trailer. Do run a larger tractor for disking and such with filled tires. Pleased with both set ups.

If the tractor were going to be used totally for pulling on dirt I would fill my tires. If you are going to use a side mounted cutter I would fill my tires.

Without removing the tire from the tractor and getting the valve stem where it would totally drain do not think you can remove all liquid from the tire. Half filled not sure, but they say about 25% filled is a no no for when driving. Have no experience there. If you have air compressor it is possible for you to fill the tires at least with water. Anti freeze can be added if need be. At same time there are tire dealerships that work on tractor tires who will fill them on the tractor at your shop if you have water for a reasonable price. BTW, when you need tire repair, price them coming to you. Here the price difference is well worth it. Esp if you have loaded tires. You need to know if you have tubeless tires or not for repairs reasons also. Tubeless you had possibly plug a nail hole yourself, tube type and you will need help.

Something I did not notice being discussed was wheel weights. Not sure if Kioti offers weighted rims or wheel weights. If they only have the steel rim, you may need the tires filled.

IF and A BIG IF, you will be doing any width changes to your tractor which requires changing the tires around, filled tires are dangerous as the liquid weight of course shifts very quickly.

I agree with Auerbach, makes no sense how it would take load off of the front tires by having rear weight. Also agree with I think it was you that the further back the weight is (3 pth compared to the tires) the greater affect the same pound has for the FEL.

Do you have any idea the weight of what you plan to move will be? I am thinking you were using for clearing a barn. If that is it, just how much does the load weigh? Or will you be also moving a full bucket of wet dirt?

It does not matter the set up you end up weights or no weights, you should keep the FEL low for moving. That way if you happen onto a tip situation it will tip only to where the bucket touches and not turn you and tractor over. Boy as I typed that, the image of some one driving a slope sideways with the bucket raised hit me, dangerous. kt
