"Very nice machine. That is the first pics of Ag's or R1s I have ever seen on a sub compact. How are you liking it ? Looks nice though! I love the decaling of Missouri thunder. Did you do those yourself or have a professional do it ? Welcome to TBN and welcome back to states. As for the aluminum canopy you mentioned you gonna have built for it, hopefully you can post some pics for us of the progress."

radioman,
That's a fine looking machine you have there and thanks for the welcome. I absoultely love the ag tires on my baby Kubota. It helped tremendously in pulling that locomotive yesterday

The after-market graphics cost me $70 and it was worth every penny. The shop where I purchased them from installed the decals which was included in the price.

I'm taking my baby Kubota to a custom shop this weekend so she can get measured for the canopy and a chrome exaust pipe and then I'll post some more photos.

thavil,
And thank you sir for your service to God and country. You beat KML to the punch and I appreicate the feedback. I do want a toothbar for my MissouriThunder and will get one soon and if you ever served in the pacific you'll know what Im talking about in regards to the one-eyed bulls. They use them mostly for their rice paddies but they packed the streets as well for hauling their junk around.

I was never stationed in the pacific, but was in the Philippines for three weeks while stationed with the White House Communications Agency. Most of my time was in Germany or the states.

Just wanted to point out something that you should check on your Missouri Thunder if you haven't already. Check your front axle fluid ASAP!! There is another thread on the Kubota owning/operating forum about this issue. If yours is low, no problem, just top it off sooner than later. Mine was low 1 1/2 quarts after about 20 hours of operation. Tod

I know right where that's at. You're about 2 1/2 hours away from the fort.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check it as soon as I get home tonight.

This is the Allis. My wife calls her the "other woman" - of course I'll throw in a shot of the new tractor too.

I actually have 2 of the Allis 616's but the other one doesn't look so pretty. We call them "pretty Allis" and "Ugly Allis". Never had a better lawn mower though.

I have to come up with a name for the new tractor. I like your decals and such.

jimmyj,
I like the one on the right better but I'll bet your older tractor is full of stories. Have you considered "Canaidian Crush" or "Canaidan Christie" as a name for the new one ???

Nice toolbox but I bet you a nickle the first time you try to back up and need to look over your left shoulder you regret putting it there. Just sayin'

A better spot would be to run a rail/plate behind your seat (attach to ROPS?) and mount it to that so the top of the box is just below the top of your seat and centered.
