My new Kioti!

[bondo478]

Hello all! I've been lurking here for quite a while, but this is my first post. I bought a new CK20S HST about a month ago and am loving every hour I am in the seat! I know you guys like pictures, so I have attached one. I also bought a backblade and finish mower, and have added bucket hooks and a rear worklight since getting it home.

Nice looking machine Bondo. Make sure you introduce your wife to the "other woman"!

Sandlot: "Other woman" I love it. Years ago when I raced sports cars my wife named my car "The Iron Mistress" she said I spent more time with it than I did with her.

I wish you many hours of safe (and fun) operating.

Now, get 'er dirty and post some of those pixs

Welcome Bondo. I'm not surprised that you love your 20, good luck with it.

Welcome to the Pack!

Looks like you got the updated loader. That little tractor will continue to amaze you with what it can do.

 

[bondo478]

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! My wife already knows about the "other women". One of my most time consuming hobbies is my classic cars.

The tractor and loader are 2008 models and it is the updated loader. My dealer doesn't have any of the old loaders on his lot.

We like pictures of dirty tractors even more. Good luck with your CK20, I still miss mine.

That is a great looking setup you have there! The more I look at the CK20, the better it looks, both visually, and on paper.

congrats on your new machine.......

i've got over 250 trouble free hours on mine.... welcome to the pack..

Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............... that new-tractor smell !!!!

 

[Gittyup]

Nice tractor, Bondo! Welcome. Be safe.

 

[bondo478]

I only have about 20 hours on it so far, but I have spent enough time around tractors to know that this machine is awesome! I researched for a year almost every day before buying anything and am sure I made a good choice.

 

[ChuckinNH]

It certainly is the strongest tractor in that size range that I am aware of. Loader, and backhoe capabilities are great!

Congrats and welcome!

I never tried out the little CK but from all reports the 20 kicks butt. Good luck, now let's see some dirty pics(of the tractor that is......)

Hey BONDO and, "Welcome to the Pack"!

Is the seat stock or after market? LOOKS GREAT!!

 

[PA hayseed]

hello and welcome.

Make sure you post your trials and tribulations, as well as success stories. I learn alot from mistakes.

 

[bondo478]

The seat is the stock suspension seat. I will make sure to get some dirty pics of it, though I do tend to keep my equipment pretty clean.

 

[GerardC]

Cool. I just may get one for my CK20. Thanks for the reply.

Cool. I just may get one for my CK20. Thanks for the reply.

Be prepared for sticker shock. I looked into replacing the seat on my 2004 CK20 with the new suspension seat....price was about $600.
