I've been looking around this site for a while, learning as much as I can about different canopies that people have build for there CUT's. I wanted to share a couple of shots of the half way completed canopy that I have come up with for my Kioti.

This last picture is the bracket that we welded on the FEL to help in the ease of removal and give extra support in the wind and trailering.. We did this also to make the mounting to the ROPS easier and without large brackets.

Curt, very nice job on the canopy.

I was wondering, did you buy your Kioti in CO? If so, where and would you recommend them as a dealer.

Thanks for the comments on the canopy. This whole thing started when I needed to add lights for night work. When all is said and done, the skin will be painted orange and still looking for a match on the ROPS color, which I haven't been able to find yet to paint the front supports. Gonna try and get the front supports bent and welded tonight so I can start spraying this weekend.

Poppa,
I bought the Kioit at Penrose Mfg down by Canon City. They were great to work with. Let me play for hours on the equipment just to make sure I was happy with it. There is another dealer up in the mountains just west of the Springs here in a little town called Lake George.. He was also good. It was tough to figure out which one to go with.

Poppa, I shopped for my Kioti 3054XS at all dealers in CO. The guys in Penrose were great and spent a lot of time with me and the wife playing on the tractors. I went with the guy in Lake George because of price. He was very knowledgeable too and good to work with.
