Question for 5R Series Tractor Owners

[ovrszd]

I knew the Rear wheel mounting flanges & diameters were different.

Yeah, I did too. What I didn't clarify is they both are set at their widest setting. Even then, they have what I would consider a narrow tread width for that size tractor. This all being dependent on intended uses. I just find it odd that this design prohibits the tractor from being set wider for stability.

I agree. I like mine Set Wide for my steep banks & hills.

So has mbarber took delivery of his new 5125R unit yet ??

 

[Bavarian]

Maybe he is too busy and enjoying the new ride.

I think he is fine. If there were issues we would know it by now.

I'm waiting for a feedback, too.

Yea I'm sure he's still on Cloud9 & hadn't came off it yet lol

Hi all,

Sorry the first cutting hay season has been extremely busy here. The tractor delivery has been delayed multiple times due to production setbacks at the factory. It finally arrived at the dealership yesterday. I had a chance to snap a few quick pictures. They have to set it up with all of the additional options, adjust the wheel spacing, ballast the tires, etc. and then it will be delivered to the farm. Currently expected to be delivered to me either Wednesday or Thursday of this week. I will keep you updated, and get you better pictures once its at the farm.

I have posted a very brief cab interior video on my channel on YouTube:

That is one fine looking tractor! Congrats!

I've seen several 5125R units on lowboys here in North Ga & TN headed to their destinations.

I love that big HP in a 5k series

Congrats. Fine tractor! I know that you will enjoy it.
I bought a new 5090M last month. The dealer had two 5115R's on the lot. Tried to talk me into one, but I just couldn't swallow the price tag. $26k more than the 90M!
