New B3200

[KodiakKen]

Have read a little about chain hooks and excessive vibration but I pulled the trigger..brought the princess home today..1800 rpm mowing does more than I can see necessary for any grass with a 60" MMM and the bucket gets really fast unless you are production your just wasting fuel..Can someone tell me why there are so many bad reviews?

Hello and welcome to TBN

 

[KodiakKen]

Thanks for the reply Yooper..guess not too many bad reviews..must have done alright..seems to do what I need it to so far. already hit a tree and a fence post. oops..but with a tractor like this fixing the fence is a breeze and the little maple can be replaced as soon as new ones sprout in the spring..it was only 2 years old..no big loss.. I like it. Just a city boy tryin to get my ducks in a row for a bigger property

You will love it. I think the B is the perfect size. What else did you get to go with it? The QA forks are great.

Hi Ken, Are you in Kodiak??

 

[KodiakKen]

No that is just a nickname. The brand of chew I use. That would be my dream hunt for bear if I ever had the opportunity. The only thing I got was the 60'' bucket and mower for now. I think I am going to build some forks for the tph but other than it works for me the way it is

Hey welcome,
Bad reviews, naw some have said that the 4 cyinder had more vibration then the three. For me and my B3200 TLB I have not noticed any more then my BX23 TLB that I had first.The 3200 is the perfect sized tractor for my needs, I mow with mine with a 72" Woods, have 72" Kodak Rake and a Land Pride 72" back Blade. You will just love it! It has more power then you can believe. Cograts. and have a blast.

I believe with anything as popular as the B3200, you are going to have complaints. Some people are new to tractors and expect too much or simply pick the wrong tractor for their needs. I looked at the B3200, but just can't justify that size of tractor or I would have bought one. The only real downside to me for that model is the lack of position control on the 3-point.

4 cylinder engines are inherently imbalanced wheras 3 cylinder engines are balanced....hence any vibration is a basic issue with inline 4 cylinder engines and not the Kubota engines in particular. Not that that ever stopped me from buying a 4 cylinder.

Ayway, that's not why I posted...actually have a question for DevilDog: What is that monted to your bucket? It looks like a toothbar, but it's solid.
