My local TSC just got a shipment of XB series attachments from king kutter - supposed to be geared toward compact tractors. I am in the market for a cheap cutter - anyone have pricing on these yet?
Anyone have experience/price on the king kutter XB

Will,
I just drove by the TSC in Canandaigua today and they seem to have alot more impliments sitting in the lot than a couple days ago. You may want to check them out. Located on route 332 (north main st). Hope this helps.

I haven't seen any XB stuff here in the heartland as of tonight. I did see a "King Kutter II" tiller here for about two days before it sold. I saw the King Kutter II on KK's website but nothing about anything called "XB" there. They did seem to have more implements than I've ever seen there before. They literally had some rotary mowers stacked two high on big styrofoam blocks and some crated finish mowers stacked in their respective crates. Any chance there's a big sale coming??? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Steve,
No experience, but I've had one on order with my local TSC for about 3 weeks now (sure wish it would come in--it's starting to get deep out there).
I called King Kutter and they indeed said that the XB series of implements were specifically designed for not just the compact tractors, but the sub-compacts as well, like the Kubota BX series sub-compacts.
I think my TSC quoted me a price of $625.
Cheers,
Randy

TC18,
I guess we're neighbors. I live in Mendon and I've visited TSC in Canandaigua a few weeks ago. I was interested in a 6ft box scraper. I was VERY disappointed in the paint quality of the KK line. But for the price they seem pretty mechanically sound.

Just a little comparison you can get a 4' Befco Rotary Cutter for 750. Which is a better made cutter.

If I'm reading this right it sounds like either the KK prices are higher in the NY region (possibly due to higher shipping from AL, where they're made) or that the new XB line is more money than the standard line or both. Has anyone with access to both compared the prices between the two?
