My first kubota! BX2360

[Trich88]

Well guys I finally bought my first orange tractor. (First tractor) Huge ktm dirt bike fan so i love orange!

Ok so I bought this 2008 BX2360 60 inch belly mower off of an individual who was very anal on all the maintenance and even waxed it. It has 235 hours on it and I picked it up for 9600. Do you all think that is a decent deal? Looks brand new as you can see.

Few other questions:

It has a loader valve how much is a loader? Think I could ever find a used one?

Who makes the best grill guard? I like the ones fab works oem.

I bought this mower to mow some steep slopes on 2 acres. My 48 inch zero turn was making me feel to uneasy.. So il be mowing and keeping the snow off the steep drive! Plus many other jobs!

Any help is appreciated! Thanks a lot guys! Glad I bought it love it so far!!

Good looking new tractor. You are talking my language with the KTM man I have a 250 sxf and a 450 xcw and I absolutely love them!

Ya I love ktm! Had a ton of them! This is my 350




Back on topic though! Anyone have any answers for me?! Or if this was a good deal!

Congratulations on the new tractor! I think Woods makes a loader for that machine. All of the local Kubota dealers here are also Woods dealers, they could price out a new loader for you, or maybe help you find a used one.

Good luck with it!

If your zero turn was making you uneasy on the hills, this is going to be worse! The bottom weight on a zero turn is so much better than a tractor!
Well have your set belt fastened tightly and pay your life insurance!

Putting a loader on it will make it even worse yet! Get some Preparation H before you try it because your going to need it after you pull the seat out!

Nice tractor and bike. I used to race AMA District 14 Enduros on a KTM EXC 300.

I'd have to agree 1000% on what Wolfman said about slopes and a zero turn versus a tractor. You want to go up and down on slopes NEVER sideways.

Thanks for the advice guys!

If you're on slopes, you might want to consider wheel spacers.

We own two BX's 2200 and 2660 and both have proven to be very stable on hill sides without the FEL. Last year we got wheel spacers from Bro Tek, We also added HST fan guard plates and stabilizer bars from hodge at Stabilworks. http://stabilworks.com/

Your price seems about right, not a steal, but fair, these things really hold their value and what may seem good in one area won't in another, so it;s hard to make a blanket statement.

Might want to consider putting fluid in your rear tires,,,adds some weight down low.

 

[Trich88]

I have fluid in the front but will get some in the rear as well! Thanks!

Load the Rears and Add Wheel Spacers. I have a Lage Hill in my Yard, Added the Spacers and loaded my Rears, Feels MUCH Better.

I'm Also a KTM man, 450 here
