Not sure there is anything "new" besides the previously announced B2301 and B2601...

Thank you for sharing. I was able to find a pic of the b2301 on Canadian site.

Yes, the brochures and info are all on the Canadian site. Waiting to trade my B2620 for the B2601. It has left side brakes and position control, along with quick attach for the bucket.

That's awesome! I'm considering trading in my ZD326 for one. Not sure how well I'll like mowing with it though. I mow around 8 acres a week.

I've never tried a zero turn mower PapaPerk....but I have 2 acres that I mow with lots of trees and obstacles and my B2620 blows my old lawn tractors away. Better cut, faster, better ride quality and WAY less fuel.
And that new B2601 is the same size as my 2620, just has more goodies.

Thanks for the info Paystar. How fast can you mow the 2 acres?

Well I don't really try to go fast and I have lots of trees and landscape stones and stuff I have to go around, and some bumpy areas.....but I am under 2 hours. Used to take me over 6 on a 21 h.p. lawn tractor. Just because of all the reversing and gear changes.
Plus I keep my loader on, so that makes me have to turn and reverse more and I just go slow and easy in medium range.

The big thing is the lawn tractor had a 4 gallon gas tank that I would have to refill twice every mowing. I can now mow 13 times with the Kubota with 5 gallons of fuel.
