I was just on Ebay and saw a dealer that has a very good price on fold down ROPS for yanmar tractors. I would post a link but since I've been spanked for that before ;) I will post this, if you put " YANMAR TRACTOR ROPS FOR 2000 2310 2220" in ebay's search it should bring them up....$360 is by far the cheapest price I've seen on them anywhere.

That dealer is located in Hartsville, SC, and that isn't a bad price. He is a VN dealer but I guess it doesn't matter about the ROPS. good find.

...So long as it has an OSHA label.

I have bought minor stuff off their ebay auctions that was as good as I expected.

I can promise you it won't have that sticker on it, unless he is selling way below wholesale price.

OMG it's that time again.
Isn't there another story by now of someone doing something stupid as H_ _ _ with a tractor yet. That one is getting old:rolleyes:

And make sure thats not just for the Canopy add.

I will miss your input RMTC. You have much experience, very strong opinions, not bashful at all. I think that is a good thing. I may not agree with you all the time but this is America. I hope you will consider hanging around. There are lots of us that don't want to see you go!

"In this thread the first response doesn't even contain information, it is nothing more than a sarcastic comment on my post"

I was the first response post and I believe I did give information as to where this guy was located and as to what type yanmars he sells, I assume you made a mistype and are not referring to me.

If you want cheap ROPS ,Just cobble some steel together & call it a ROPS. You get what u pay for.. Take care Wayne

My thinking is that a person is probably more likely to turn a tractor with ROPS over than one without ROPS. The reason is that I know with ROPS I would not be as conservative on slopes. For that reason I figure it is better to have no ROPS than to have ROPS that you aren't sure you can count on.

LMTC,
From one of the members who read and learn far more than post ... Please stick around - you're a great resource and a value to the board.
You've helped me more than once or twice ... but if you must depart, please keep an internet presence so I can find you later - when I need parts /service. My local dealer may not be around when that time comes, :eek: not due to bad service (he's a top notch straight shooter) but due to market sales volume.. retirement's closer with each season.

Thanks from the back of the class...

Wayne, (LMTC) calm down.

You overreact to stuff where you have more experience than the poster. There's no need to burn bridges here.

I firmly believe that after enough discussion the real facts emerge on the topics we discuss here. Getting there can be a little bumpy - don't let that bother you.

:)

I don't post often but here's my 2 cents. I have a YM1610D that I bought last year. It does not have a ROPS but eventually I will add one. When I do I won't be looking for a bargain. That's not to say I won't try to get the best price but I'll buy one from one of the dealers or parts suppliers that I trust that handle the models that have the engineering support and testing to give me some confidence that if I roll over it will help me survive. That's my opinion it's worth exactly ..... zero. You have to make your own decision. LMTC I have learned a lot from your posts but it is a forum and we are here to share knowledge and opinion. You have a lot of hard earned knowledge to share with Yanmar owners. I value that but it is a forum and there will be discussion and differences. I hope your decision is not final. That's my view. It is worth exactly ..... zero. You have to make your own decision.
