Island's post reminded me of something. My tractor has the mid folding ROPS. When i pulled into my neighbors barn, i pulled the pin(singular because the other one was MIA) and folded the thing back. Guess what, if 'ya have a Sunshade it's taller folded than up /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif! For those of you that need to fold these things down to fit in a garage you may want to get the low- point folding ROPS...that is if you plan on having a Sunshade.

I usually recommend to customers that if they have to fold the roll bar to get it in somewhere, don't bother with a sunshade (on CK's). Even with the lower folding ROPS it's almost as high folded down as it is up and the extra weight of the low-folding ROPS and the Sunshade makes it real tough to put it back in "usable" position.

check out www.tufftop.net for a removable sunshade that comes off in seconds. Take it off with no tools when you need to fold your ROPS down.

Great canopy. Put one on my CK30 and love it.

Looks like a nice product. Anyone know whether the 44 or 48 inch version is best for the CK20?? From the webpage it looks like the smaller one is for subcompacts/lawn mowers but the larger one is demo'd on something bigger than the CK20 so it is tough to tell.
