Well after looking at a couple really nice B6100's the wife said why buy something that is 26 years old..... SO today I bought a 2005 B7610 with LA352 FEL, BX 2750 front mount blower w/ quick attach I believe, and Curtis cab with electric heaters. The machine has 135 hours on it. I think that I got a decent deal at $13,000. Anything I should look at on this model tractor? This is my first Kubota. I will post some pics tomorrow when I get home. Thanks!!

Congratulations, you got a great deal. Upgrade the seat if it hasn't been already and swap out the turnbuckle style 3 pt arms for telescoping style w/ parts from B2910 (about $130) and you should be all set.

Also, we require pics so post 'em up. :D

Thanks guys. Yes the previous owner installed 2 small electric heaters in the cab. I am not sure how well they are going to work but they must work. I have yet to play with the tractor yet. I got home with it last night and off the trailer. I had to get up early and go to work this morning so maybe if it is not to late tonight when I get home I can run it around a little. Peter good to see people from Maine on here. I live in the Millinocket area. The seat is the old design I believe looks original. How much is the updated design from Kubota?

The new seat during the program was about $28/exchange but the replacement program is over.I recall the seat otherwise being over $250,but have heard of people still getting the deal.The electric heaters are interesting.The standard charging system(dynamo)only puts out like 13-14 amps.That's not much heat with electricity.A 40 amp alternator kit is available.I wonder what you have?I've seen those electric heaters and the dynamo will barely run one of them.Nice purchase though.

Thanks for the info on the seat. Does anyone have a service notice number for that program? I will call the dealer Monday and see if they would exchange it. Long shot but worth a try. Not sure on what alternator is in it. I have only turned the heaters on to see that they worked. With the lights on and turning the heaters on it did not seem to load up the charging system. Something I will have to look into. Where is a good place to get the actual curtis inline heater with defrost??

The service number on the seat replacement was PIB-2007-027. Title of the document is "B & BX Seat Program" and it was issued in may 2007.
