Kubota didn\'t upgrade BX23 engine:

I'm curious on why Kubota didn't upgrade the BX23 engine. I see that it remains with the same D905-E-BX engine that was in the older BX22 (and the BX2200). The new engine for the BX2230 is D902-E-BX but the BX23 stayed with the 905. Is it because of of the block heater?

Re: Kubota didn\'t upgrade BX23 engine:

Someone reported that the BX23 will have the 902 engine later in the season...for whatever reason. Maybe simply because there were a number of the 905s in the BX23 pipe line?

Personally, I am glad I have the 905 engine in my BX2200. I may be from the old school, but anytime something physically smaller is substituted for something larger, and said to do the same job, I sort of wonder.

Then again, I still like metal over plastic...so what do I know. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
