Try comparing tire size, length, top speed, loader capacity, loader lift height.........
Your loader specs are way off 1074 vs 460.
These are 2 tractors in different classes, not fair to try to compare the 2.

OK....I pulled the wrong number of kiotis website.....

Loader has a stronger pull...

Kioti...stronger loader.....

So I guess it's easy to put a "Overloaded Loader " on small tractor....

Answer this, what implement that you would carry on the 3 point hitch weighs over 1000 pounds...and have you ever used one....

Guys, I owned a B7500 before the BX23, no way would I ever put that much weight on the 3 point........

So far still no convincing argument...other than recycled opinion based on possibly your own purchase.

Bota,

Who are you trying to convince us or yourself? Try using your used car salesman tactics on some unsuspecting fool. But not here.

( Thought I would stir your soup a little so here you go:

Engine: BX 22HP CK 21HP
Displacement BX 54.8 ci CK 56.6 ci
PTO HP BX 16.7 HP CK 15.5HP
Width BX 45.1 CK 44.1
Wheelbase BX 55 CK 57.9
Front tread 35.8 same on both
3 point lift capacity BX 680 CK 1109
Weight BX 1520 CK 1993

So, I ask....what part of these MFG supplied numbers do you not understand??? Taken directly from the websites of both manufacturers....

Opinions do not convince.....just the facts please......

Where is the "Huge" "No comparison" difference????
/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif ) 

Clearance:

Kubota BX..... 6 inches

KIOTI: CK..... 12.2 inches!!!

Please!!!!!!!!

Bota guy . Well if you wanted to "stir the pot " You did!
Personally if I was looking for a Great Lawn machine with some decent fel capabilities I'd go BX .
On the other hand , If I was looking for a sub -cut tractor that could handle lawn (yard ) work ,yet had good hyd.capacity and ground clearance,the CK would be my choice .
It's a tough call to be sure ,as the lines aren't all that distinguished . You forgot to mention 3PH capacity and lift. While I don't have the specs , I'm sure the CK gets the nod .
And, while I'm a Kubota owner , I don't see it's to anyones advantage to run down another brand . BTW , I didn't buy my machine with thoughts of selling it /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Just my random thoughts . John

Very simple......the person who originated the question is comparing the two tractors.....some Kioti owners seem to think this is a "No comparison" debate...I offer valid side by side comparison and the rest of you have not offered anything besides the normal "I bought this one so it is better..."No comparison".
