My thoughts as well...but I don't have the CX2510 to look at.

I have one. The tag on the engine sez it's the 1.6L Engine.
I don't know much about Kioti, at all, but evidently the CX2510 is a dressed-up version of the CK2510.
On the CK they changed engines in 2016. From a 1.4L to a 1.6L
You can see it here if you go to Model Year near the top of the page and click on it. You'll see the change.
Don't understand it but I learned a long time ago that I don't need to understand everything. I just accept a lot of things these days without question. Easier that way

I was worried about that, too. But I have no problem turning the wheels over. My problem is traction.
Hi Range is next to useless for anything other than road travel or light pulling. You run into a grade and it bogs. But Lo Range is plenty fast enough and generates more power than the tires can handle. I can load my Box Blade up with gravel and run out of traction before I run out of power. In fact, I've never run out of power. But I haven't really put it through its paces yet either.
While I think a 3 range would be better, I don't notice it. In fact, I enjoy putting it in Lo Range and doing anything I need to do without the bother of shifting it in and out ranges.

They need to remove the 87 in the manual and the specs sheets then...as that would be 100.5 CI's not 87.
As a scientist, I like to understand things.
Sometimes accepting things is easier, sometimes it is not. It depends on if the information is accurate or not, and what the cost will be when it isn't correct. Since 87 CI does not equal 100.5 CI's or 1.6L, if I owned the machine I would like to know which it is, especially when ordering filters or pouring in specific volumes of fluids (although the dip stick should always be checked).
All that said, I would imagine the label on the engine itself would be correct since that was most likely the original info...and everything after the design was copied or translated.

Go look at the numbers on Kioti's website. In any case, not my concern. I have a CK2610 HST with KL4030 loader...and am able to move a lot more with it than I was expecting, so I am very pleased.
At the 22:00 mark in the video at the bottom of this post...what more could one expect from a CK2610 HST?

I like the video. 
I also do a lot of such grapple work on 33hp & 35hp NH CUTs with similar frame size and same tire sizes, but lesser hydraulics and FEL capacity.
I know other makers are catching up but IMO CK2610 set the bar pretty high for non-Tier machines when it came out.

A 2610 maybe. A 2510? I don't think so.

The cool thing about math is it is objective. Pounds don't have opinions and due to the law of conservation of matter, you just add the numbers of each implement/attachment together to get the total weight.

The correct numbers , sure.

The numbers I listed were from the Kioti website.

I told my wife that I need a 55hp tractor with cab for our 8 acres

Could be a typo or BS. Not everything on the internet is true.

I'm really not sure why this thread bothers you so much that you need to **** post a bunch of times in it.

She is 100% on board. Truthfully, I could get by TODAY with less. But, I see this as a long term investment, and I’ll find ways to use it which will require more HP or weight

Seems like you might have things slightly mixed up.

Clearly you don't know the term. You realize you bumped a thread that was a year old right? Pretty narcissistic to think that guy was waiting around a year to get your valuable piece of sage advice. But thankfully now that he knows you think a DK is better than a CK he'll be able to pull the trigger and buy his tractor. Well done sir and thank you for your service and contributions to the forum!
