When my 6500 was delivered it had a regular mount bucket on it. I had ordered a quick tatch skid steer compatible version, which they put on and delivered to me last weekend. Just looking at the bucket it appears to be a bit shorter and looks like it would handle less material. It lists that is a 78" like the other, but are there cubic material size options as well? I just didn't know that I would be downgraded to a smaller size bucket for the quick attach option.

TIM, The bucket width should be 78" with or without the quick tach.

right, the width is the same, but due to the bucket construction difference is the cubic ft the same? The width is 78" for both as you stated.

As a followup I checked with my dealer and there was only one 78" bucket available (from Mahindra).

Tim, my 6000 has the 78" bucket from KMW. I believe it is rated at 23 cu. Ft (27 cu/ft being a "yard"). Not sure what the volume of the quick detach is. Bobg in VA
