Don't tell me that you are trying to lure this thread into the "a CK20 won't drive over a 2X4" type of thread, are you? Although I have my own personal thoughts about acceptable power to weight ratios, I saw no validity at all from the people saying that a CK20 doesn't have the power to go over a 2X4. I am confident that that "myth" was put to bed quite satisfactorily. However, you seem to want to open another such "myth". Why would you want to do so??
As I've said before, I have more than one zero turn radius lawn mowers with 3 cyl. diesel engines that put out about the same power as a CK30 but weigh nearly 2500 to 3000 pounds less. I think it would be silly for me to expect a CK30 to drive, handle, and run the same mower deck as a unit with the same power but weighing more than a ton more. What would be the point? I fail to see anything in your post other than an attempt to create discord.
Sorry, but I'm not going there; you're on your own. I'll stick in the camp that notes the cracks in the particular loaders, notes that Kioti has acknowledged the issue, and is working on an appropriate fix. I see no reason for them to rush for a 'quick fix' since it has also been pointed out numerous times that nobody has suffered a catastrophic failure due to said loader cracks. Sure, it's an issue, but it could also be an issue to debate whether plastic valve stem caps are better or worse than metal valve stem caps.
What do you say? Maybe a little less with the big stick stirring up something that has long since settled to the bottom and isn't creating any problems for anyone?!
