    Kubota B7500, good deal??

    congrats. Sound like you got a VERY good deal. Seafoam for winter? hmm, that's new to me. Always used power service (911).

    MMM for BX25

    If you're referring to the mid mount mower (MMM) I believe it would be RCK60B-23BX. There is also a 54" RCK54B-23BX. Had the 60 inch (RCK60B-22BX) on my BX23. It did a fine job. It's a pretty heavy deck, but fairly easy to add/remove once you get the hang of it.

    Anyone on the fence like I was ( BX 2380 )

    Congrats, and you are correct. They really are a beast. Had a BX23 (TLB) for 12 years and it sure was a reliable work horse. Used it for a part time landscaping business at the time. Paid for itself 2x over the first year in use. Enjoy.

    pallet fork compatability?

    I just received a set from them in the 42" variety, a bit lighter duty. The forks themselves are quite heavy duty. The quick attach bracket looks heavy enough, but look like they were welded by a 10 year old child (perhaps, they were). ;) The set that I got has the 2" receiver as well. Great...

    Skidding trees with backhoe attached

    If you have enough room, leave the draw bar and clevis on the machine with the hoe. Use that to drag logs. Alternatively, you could hook to the backhoe steps but, I wouldn't recommend chaining logs to the bucket for skidding purposes.

    B2650 Snow Removal

    I've used the rear blade/bucket method for years with my old BX23. It works good enough. The rear blade that I have is from an old 8N (6 ft blade). I've always found it easier to push that blade in reverse for light snow of any depth. It won't damage your driveway at all. The pushing in reverse...

    BH77 Controls too short

    Les and Mike, Thank you both for the reply. I figured that's what happened. They gave me the setup for a cabbed or "L" version. I should have looked more closely when they were putting the machine together at the dealer. I did find the correct part numbers for the longer (and bent) controls. I...

    That's the good side of the garage. The other side is filled with lots of other toys...I may need to have a liquidation sale soon! Interesting, My BX23 fit on the other side with the toys no problem...this one is much bigger when it was delivered.:D

    Connecting a battery charger

    not sure if there is a big difference in your machine vs my old BX23, but I used a battery tender jr as well. I simply connected to the battery and ran the pigtail between the radiator screen and the dash. The pigtail connector was plenty long enough to hang down from that gap between the two...

    BH77 Controls too short

    Well, after some more searching, I think I found the answer. There are two different sets of sticks (like I thought). Short controls- and long controls

    BH77 Controls too short

    Not sure, but I think they are pressed on. Hoping I can get a response from someone that has the same machine as I do. I believe there is a difference in the controls sticks on Cab vs ROPS units or perhaps between B and L tractors (even though they share the same backhoe.

    New Truck, New Tractor....What gets the Garage???

    Agree with others. Tractor gets the roof! Mike, I have a question about your backhoe. Would you be so kind to measure the length of the backhoe control sticks (length above the control box)? I have the same machine that I took delivery on yesterday and the backhoe control sticks are way too...

    BH77 Controls too short

    Yes, they only measure approx 10" above the control box. I know I've seen some that were substantially longer. Just can't find any info on them, or parts diagram for BH77. And the BH77 uses two swing cylinders. Good advice on checking over the whole machine. Thanks

    Hi folks, New to this site. I just took delivery of a new B2650 rops version today. :D She sure is purdy. Got the 60" QA bucket, BH77 backhoe with mechanical thumb and 16" bucket. Picked up some pallet forks too. Looking forward to putting it to work. We recently purchased another home on 9...

    BH77 Controls too short

    Hi all, New here. My new B2650 was delivered today and while I was checking over it I noticed two issues with the BH77 backhoe: 1) It appears as though the backhoe controls (sticks) are very short in length. :( Does anyone know if perhaps Kubota uses two different sets of controls for L vs B...

    FedEx

    Nice, I need to get a look at the 320. Current EDC is Sig P938. Awesome little shooter. If you're into 1911's without the weight, check out the Ruger SR1911 lightweight commander...another fav of mine and winter carries easily when you want something a little more "fun".

    Hi all, New here. After much consideration I finally took delivery of a new B2650 today. She's "purdy" for sure. I look to gain some useful knowledge here from other owners as I begin to add some more "tools". Currently, it's set up with 60" QA bucket, Pallet forks and BH77 16" bucket w/...
