Diskbine: Vicon vs. ?

[Rara Avis]

Oh, doesn't kuhn make discbines for JD? or at least used to? Seems like I remember hearing that somewhere, and also read it in a post awhile back.

No...
Rotary cutterbar is designed and built by John Deere. Large oval disks with free-swinging knives are used to cut the crop.

Yes you are right i worked for a silage contractor in the UK with 7 mowers and certain models of our JD mowers used Kuhn cutterbar that is why they all went back to kuhn mowers .....Why pay JD price for parts..?
Kuhn make decks for most big brands ...They are the best ?Vicon is a good deck but the rest of the machine is cr@p
