New Kubota LX Series

[looch]

A quick search did not turn up anything for me. Surely I can't be the first one to have some questions about this new series - perhaps I missed something...

The LX2610HSDC looks to be everything I was originally looking for when I settled for my cabless B2601. Cab, A/C, heat. The performance specs are closer to the B2601, but it takes the bigger BH77 hoe.

Anyway - I was hoping there might be someone on here with the inside scoop.

Check out thread Kubota 2650 there some info there.

Thanks Thomas! How's the weather?

EDIT: The LX is nothing to write home about, apparently being the replacement for the B50 series. Somehow the LX2610 looked smaller in pictures than the B2650 - like a B2601 with cab. Oh well - I just saved a bunch of money.

I attended the Western Farm Show exhibit yesterday and the Kubota booth had no spec sheet on the LX..."yet".

Cheers,
Mike.

The Kubota USA site has the basic spec sheet - looks identical to the B2650.

Glad you were able to keeps extra coins in your pocket :thumbsup:keep your nose and toes warm up there.
Weather...we're going to get taste of spring next couple days maple sap might start dripping.

Yep...that's why we're looking strongly at B2650.

Agreed.

Specifications for the LX2610 are just about identical to the soon to be discontinued B2650.

I'm surprised that I have yet to see the telltale plumes of smoke/steam emanating from the occasional back-forty. Any day now, I surmise.

If you want a B2650, buy it soon as Kubota is no longer manufacturing it.

The new LX2610 offers an optional "Swift-Tach" FEL with single lever hydraulic manifold. One can attach/detach the FEL without leaving the tractor seat. An optional mechanical self leveling package is also available.

Also new is an SU version of the LX2610, similar in concept to the discontinued SU version of the B3350.
