Very nice job Kubota :thumbsup:
I liked how they were sure to say the Yanmar engine was a good engine.
ROP being shorter on kubota vs john deere. been in a few roll over accidents. one was a 4 wheeler with role cage to s10 pickup roll over, to may dads accidents, i am leary of short distance of kubota roll cage. due to once you start rolling over, G forces alone can be enough to rip your hands off a steering wheel and get your hands crushed or stuck under a roll cage as you and tractor roll over.
still gotta have my left and right rear steering brake pedals on opposite foot of go pedal / gas pedal / HST pedal.
So the question in my mind is, why did Kubota make this vid? Are they feeling some pressure marketshare-wise?
The torque comparison on the 23hp models was startling, but they didn't show the comparables on the 26hp models - would have to assume they're a closer match. In any case, I've seen the 1023 and 1026 up close and still prefer my BX, though I didn't run either of the Deere units. Have to think a revised BX is coming in a year or so. The current BX incarnation is over four years old I believe.
