That's a pretty cool machine. Looks like it handles it well. Good option for those wanting to stay warm and dry while throwing snow but don't need a tractor.
I have this exact setup from Messicks and it works perfect. I have the broom and v plow also. If Kubota wanted to take this setup to absolute perfection, they’d create a rocker pedal for forward and reverse, just like in compact tractors.
A 50hp model with a flail mower on the front would be awesome or maybe just a flail mower on the front would be great as well. Wonder if the flail mower for the front hitch on a grand L would work? Very informative as always thanks for making the video.
I hear that the pto ground clearance on this machine is only 6 inches, is that true? And if so what are some solutions for people who live in hilly areas? I live on the north side of a rolling river Bluff myself...
Hey Neil, could you do a review on the Kubota B2401dt. I’m looking at purchasing one and wanted to get a review on it to make up my mind on it. Thanks.
Great video. Love this setup. Can this blower be switched out for a different k-connect blower? more specifically the K64-22 for tractors? Its about 100 lbs more but much prefer the huge impeller and chain drive. It is recommended for the LX2610 so 25Hp is all good.
Hello, love your videos. Do you know it the 2024 RTV x1100C comes with heavy duty front struts/shocks, or do you have to purchase them when installing a snow plow? There is a lot of conflicting information regarding this, as many folks convey that the 2024 RTV X1100C comes with heavy duty front Struts/shocks?? Thank you!!
Are you still there Neil or did one of NY Sate DPW's Walter Snow-Fighters lift you and your ToyBota up and fling you into the woods? Imagine if Kubota came up with RTV that had both Front and Rear PTOs with proprietary mounts that only coupled to 'bota attachments. Salesman's Dream.
Any info on adjusting the lowering speed of the blower? I haven't found anything in either the blower manual or the K-connect manual... Mine seems to just slam to the ground every time. 😒
@@tator05 have you found this to limit you in off road applications? I suppose you just have to be more careful of large rocks, etc. I would really like this machine but clearance is my main concern in the off winter season months. Trying to find someone who can give me insight into their experience with clearance of the machine outside of winter months...
@@jimmyjones5310 Once you have the PTO K connect installed its not really something I would take off road. Its not to begin with, these are HD work utility vehicles designed for schools, municipalities on one end and farms, ranches & high end home owners on the other. They are not fast enough for play vehicles that I would take off road. They make the RTVXG850 Sidekick for that kind of play and work application.
OLD LEATHER SMITH here, I subscribe 2 your channel because I have learned that Kubota is the best 4 the price and most important is the customer service, that said I noticed seat belts but you weren't wearing any, also I would like 2 ask, do U pay the person following you around OUTSIDE taking the videos in the cold snow more?? GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
Would love to have something like this... How well does it work on slag/limestone driveways ? Can you adjust the height of the blower so that it sets an inch or more up from the surface (I like to build a base to protect the stone from being thrown into my yard) ? I live in the heart of the northeast Ohio snowbelt, with a lot of driveway and area in front of my two garages, plus a turn around. I've been using a Honda HS1132 snowblower the past several years... works well, but can take up to a few hours depending on the depth and wetness of the snow... plus I'm not getting any younger (now 67 & in good health). I could use the utility vehicle on my property which is a 15 acre wooded lot).
@@brendanperry6429 The problem with a blade is that you can run out of room to push the snow... I live in the Ohio snow belt and have a Farmall Cub tractor with a blade and have a very large driveway... used it for years and I was always running out of room to push the snow and fairly easy to get stuck... I eventually bought a Honda HS1132 snowblower and it works great, but I can spend 1-3 hours snowblowing depending on the snowfall... and that's a lot of walking... something like this Kubota would help cut the time down and effort tremendously !
@@airmojo That makes perfect sense. I've been waiting for years for John Deere, to either put hydraulics on the Gator; or come out with a larger model (🐊Crocodile 🐊) that will accommodate a blower, bucket, grapple etc. Have you looked at Toro Ground master 7200/7210 or the ToolCat by Bobcat? Toro's Ground master apparently converts from a rotary lawnmower to a snow machine. I believe it's diesel.
Thanks. Great job on the videos, between yourself and fellow Canadian Paul Short really got me interested in Kubota and eventually led to the purchase, we use it for looking after our horses, the X1100C gives us more versatility than a tractor. Would like to see a video on the 3 point hitch and attachments for them.
LOL, plus the $20k+ for the machine. Just priced one out with the blower and the sweeper and it was $46k+ LOL. I'd rather have a tractor with a loader and the PTO K-Connect system for a blower. Can't put a loader on a UTV.
That wiper design could certainly be improved.

No on the peddle
I’ve wanted one of those for a few years now. It is something that is definitely on my bucket list!

Can't believe you got that much snow. It was in the 60's here in Canada today!
video was shot a month ago.
When's Kubota going to have a mower available for the front end of the machine? Bobcat had one. 🤔🤔🤔
I've asked a few times about out front mowers for several machines and they acting like the idea is new to them.
that is a sweet machine there never seen a snowblower for one of these machines
Woohoo! Messics video!!!
Cool machine, that's the way to move snow. I'll have to look into removal and installation procedure.
I hear that the pto ground clearance on this machine is only 6 inches, is that true?
And if so what are some solutions for people who live in hilly areas?

Did you end up getting one? I bought one last year and I love it.
Thanks! Would like to see it operating on a gravel drive or on turf....
@Fred Wills Maybe, although I would want to see that.....
Has anyone tried this setup with a track kit?
Hey Neil, do you have the part number for those drift cutters? Thanks

They probably would not want the extra weight on the suspension.
Yeah but I got a problem with that I can't use my left hand very well I need one that goes to the right hand so that would have to be changed

Should have sturts added when a plow goes on
Can you order this setup with Trax? Next question; I'm told these have had problems with rust, true not true?
My 2015 is all rusted so true. Hell…the rust already perforated the floor!
Such a cool machine. I wish I had the money to buy one.

What is the ground clearance with the k-connect?
About 6 inches. The PTO shaft takes about half of the 12” normal ground clearance away

Yes, the person on the outside is a paid employee. Probably not paid enough for putting up with me.
Do you ever think Ford will get back in agriculture
No :-)
How many people add the mud flaps to these machines ? Thanks.
i never knew this was an option...very interesting

You need a speed wheel on the steering wheel!
I find my 1100 at times hard to shift, is that normal? I don’t have the snow blower, I have a v plow so lots of back and forth.
1100 or x1100?
@@MessicksEquip x1100c
@@robinseitz9692 kinda normal. You can help things by not shifting on a grade and making sure you firmly press the brake pedal while shifting.

Yup same here. Wish and know they could have refined the shifting on the x1100.
If that is a 23 hp machine why can’t you use that blower on a BX 2680
different number, but they make a commercial blower for the BX with wings that is this large.
Waaaaay to expensive unfortunately! $10k for a snowblower that is not very tall is too much money.....
LOL, plus the $20k+ for the machine. Just priced one out with the blower and the sweeper and it was $46k+ LOL. I'd rather have a tractor with a loader and the PTO K-Connect system for a blower. Can't put a loader on a UTV.
Commercial???
How much $$$
Is this for sale?
Was, sold now.
That wiper design looks so bad
wiper system is crap. Come on Kubota get real
