Hey guys im getting my first tractor hopefully today, its a 88 or 87 b8200 4 wheel drive with a belly mower in awesome shape. No loader just the tractor and the mower, it has 1200 hrs and is a hydro with power steering. I paid 5295 for it and i think that was pretty good, after i drove it around and looked at it i know i had to buy it. Ill have some pics up asap so that you can see it, i noticed that it doesnt have a roll bar so ill ask the guy and find out. My 2 uncles have one of these, one has a b6200 and one has a b9200 both the same year as mine.

well i got it home first thing i did was wash it then i took the sheet metal off the front and degreased the engine and the radiator and oil cooler, after that i waxed it and buffed it, looks pretty good for now tell me what you guys think, i love this thing and cant wait to mow with it. I already put my leaf blower on it and that works out pretty good

Wow ! Clean, very good looking tractor. Frequent fluid changes, and keep her out of the weather, and she will last you a very, very long time.

You did good !

Thanks guys its in pretty good shape, its not perfect but i like it alot and it mows really good. Ive cut my time in half for mowing the lawn. What did you want to know about the leaf blower on the back, its a olathe blower works pretty good, work better on the kubota then our ford 2120, i think its ment for 20 to 40 hp tractors.

Love my B8200. A true work horse. Mine is 4wd but not HST and she climbs all my steep hills plus runs the mower, tiller, box blade and soon the sickle. Would love to get a loader though. Enjoy.
