Looks great Roy!!! :thumbsup:

Did you add that striped tape along the loader?

Thanks, CTF...and to think...YOU were the inspiration!

Yes, I added the reflective tape on the loader arms and masts as well as the ROPS. ACE hardware has it...2 or 3 bucks for a 24" strip.

:laughing:

I may have been the inspiration but you definitely outdid me! ;)

That tape is a good idea. I'll have to look into that...The BX came with two small pieces of reflective tape on the ROPS, but I don't think these are real effective...

If you ever go on the road, you want to be as visible as possible.

If you recall my old 790...well, I worked at a Harley Davidson supplier when I owned that machine. If you look at an HD rear tag bracket, you'll see a retangular reflector. We used to get those things in the reusable shipping carts supplied by HD to ship the rear tag bracket...although we did not install the reflector.
Anyway, I had a couple, three dozen of those reflectors...must have put 12-15 of them on the rear surface of the 790's ROPS. A car's headlamps could pick up those reflectors from way back!

Thinking of reflectors...you can get the stick on type at most any hardware store...might be worth putting a few on your Kubota's ROPS.

That's an excellent suggestion! The only time that'll fail us is when on the road on a foggy day or in a blizzard -- that's what our warning lights are for. Extra visibility never hurts and reflective tape is cheap.
