▄▀▄ Kubota Z 700 series Zero Turn ▄▀▄

prodriver · Aug 12, 2014

Would like to know if anyone has purchased the new Kubota Z Series mower.
I currently own three other Kubota tractors, but they are all Kubota powered.
The new series is Kohler powered and I would like to think that the engineers at K
would have given serious calculation to using another brand of engine in their equipment.
I have known Kohler engines in the past to be reliable, but I am not up to speed with them recently.
I welcome any input and information you may have to offer.

Does Kubota make a gasoline engine? I'm not sure, but I don't think so. That is probably why they used the kohler engines. I believe they do that in their gasoline riding mowers as well.

Kubota makes both GAS and DIESEL engines but they may have used Kohler to meet a certain price point.

they do, but they don't make a vertical shaft model.
