    Bikes

    Some one says BIKES? I sold my boys Vstrom 650 Saturday morning to a local kid that is new to riding and went to Indiana last night and bought this. 1947 Cushman model 50. Rode it a few miles today got lots of looks and thumbs up.

    Anyone attach a landscape rake to FEL?

    I bought a rear quick hitch and had the local welding shop make a bracket to fit on my quick attach loader. Works great. The hook on top works good for lifting with a chain. I just bought a landscape rake last week and haven't had a chance to try it on the front yet. I use my 3 pt. carry all...

    Nice find. If you find another set that cheap let me know.

    New to me B7500

    Not abused. Like new when I bought it. Mantained by the book and records kept for all the maintenance. The work order said it was low on power and the problem was bad injectors.

    FEL question

    Rear ballast makes a huge difference when lifting full buckets of dirt or other heavy objects. Keeps the back wheels on the ground and makes the tractor steer and just feel so much better. Your box blade would make a good ballast. You could hang some extra weight on it if needed.

    1030 hours on mine. The PO had the injectors replaced at 787 hours. Paid the dealer just under a 1000$ to replace then and do some other little stuff.

    B7500 are great tractors. I do wish it had a 3rd range in the HST and a parking brake idiot light. Click on my signature line to see how much fun I have had with mine in the past few years.

    Titan pallet forks

    My thoughts as well. I sold mine before I ended up bending my bucket. I did move a few light weight things with them and they work good for that.

    Using 3pt carry all as a pallet fork

    I use mine all the time as pallet forks on the front and rear. Loaded a skid last night into the dump trailer that was to almost to heavy for the FEL. seems like the higher it goes the less it will lift. I do wish they were a little longer and like you said they don't work with all skids. I have...

    B7500 upgrades

    I ran the tractor at 1500 RPMs and it doesn't sound like its working at all. I did push one big log in way to fast just to see what would give and to my surprise the belts slipped. It has 2 belts running side by side but I was glad they slip before anything else got messed up. The saw came with...

    B7500 upgrades

    Picked up some teeth today. I have the Piranha tooth bar on my other bucket and love it. I have been looking for a tooth bar for my bigger bucket and found one that was a inch to short. Figured for the price ( under $160 ) I would take a chance. Had to cut the bracket that bolts on the side of...

    Quick Hitch confuderation

    Not sure if it will fit better but the Speedco is a nicer hitch. I always try to make sure the weight is on the lower pins and the top hook doesn't have any weight on it. Some times the pin in the top hook is just kind of floating until u start to work it. I can measure the top link in the...
