My neighbor tipped my Iseki over this week. He claims he was just testing my homemade rollbar. Here's a few pics, he just bruised his arm and ego. I believe if it didn't have the rollbar it would have continued over and seriously hurt him or worse.
If you guys bought a grey market without a ROPS, I would highly recommend adding something to stop a complete rollover. It could mean keeping a neighbor.

I don't loan my tractor to a neighbor. I will go with it and help the neighbor though. But I drive. Hope that isn't being non-neighborly, but sure solves problems because things break and happen. I've been on the opposite end of that too, and it seemed something always was breaking.

Couldn't get your attachment to work.

Been friends with this neighbor since elementary school, he always helps or fixes what breaks, even when I break it.

I have very few that I loan anything to. They are the type that if it breaks that fix or have fixed before returning item. The rest of the people I will help on my schedule.

I have three neighbors that I will loan to. Two of them have their own tractors, we share implements and one guy who grew up on a farm. If he doesn't use mine he will use one of the neighbors. I have watched him and trust him. Other than that, no one. Oh forgot, my 13 year old daughter. Mowing his her job now, I lost that seat time.
