dk series HST

[Noodlearm]

Hi all. I don't know if this has been mentioned or not, but my local dealer didn't have the info. I just spoke with an engineer at Kioti and asked him if they were going to have larger HP ck's in the future or make the DK's available with HST and according to him, the DK 35-45's will have HST available in 2007. Kind of far off, but thought it might interest some of you anyway.

Thx
Brian

Better late than never I quess.
Although I didn't feel the need for hydrostat, many do and DK's availible with hydro would likely be a plus.

Kioti is taking a similar route to the US that Kubota did back in the '70s. They continue to offer newer, and better machines, and they will continue to follow what the public seems to want. I personally wish they had introduced some larger HSTs already, but they'll come.
They will also be offering more sloped hoods and curved loaders in the near future. Another good sign that they are in competition, and on the right track in my opinion. John
