DK 55

Nice looking tractor!! I wonder if the bigger ones will be getting that same look instead of the dud Kubota M series look?

The hoods sure look like the NH boomer style
(more law suits) :)

<font color=black>I see the :) but don't give 'em any ideas. (I'm sure they have enough of their own.) The lawsuits just translate into higher costs /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif for us, Joe Consumer/w3tcompact/icons/clever.gif. (but that's a whole 'nother topic in a different forum/thread.)<font color=black>

Re: DK 55 on Kioti Website now

Anyone notice the DK55 link on Kioti's website? Curious? Then click here!
Kind of weird since the tractor is badged as a "Daedong D500".
As you would expect from Kioti, it looks like another impressive unit.

That looks like the overseas model to me. I think the US model will say DK55, and have orange wheels.

I also notice it has the same style lift arms that my 65 had. I swapped mine out to the more traditional arms with the eye socket.

The arms on the DK 65 and DK 55 are all going to be changed to the traditional arms even field units were to been changed . I like the style that they had on them make three point hook up rather easy.

The lift arms have indeed been changed and they include extendable lift arms as a standard item, a nice touch. Most companies make you pay for the option.

PS,

I disagree. They look like they would be easier to hook up, but they were not. They would slide to one side or the other. I also think over time, they would wear out.

The new ones are much better!! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
