Man!! Kubota should give you a percentage for advertising! You are good!

Thank you so much for the thorough comparison of both the B2650 and LX series. I've been in the market for the B2650 for a while, and when we finally were ready to pull the trigger, I was disheartened to hear it had been discontinued. We went ahead and got the LX2610 coming, but I was still a bit uneasy that it was effectively a flashy B2601 model. This did make me feel a bit better bout going with the LX. Thanks for the great head to head overview!

I have a 2016 BX 25DLB! I love it! Hydraulic Snowplow/Dozer blade ,rubber feet on backhoe,night LED flood lights, weight box, third valve, 2019 Grapple!

My dealer did not know this either. In the manual for the B2650 if you lock the brake on the PTO will operate. This lets you run a chipper. There is a micro switch which operates with the break lock that lets the PTO operate. I also used this switch to operate a light in the dash so I don't forget to unlock the brake. I know we have all done this

You really can’t beat the B2650. I’ve got one on 20 acres and it does everything I need it to!

Great video, Neil. Awesome info!

Use the Kubota!

I have the outgoing B3350 Cab, at first I had many issues with what I thought was the emissions. Turns out my stalling issue was something like a slug that must have dropped into the fuel tank and would intermittently plug the fuel line, I still need to locate or make a strainer for the filler neck. Second problem is I wasn’t running RPM above 2000 when running backhoe, resulting in regen issues and inability to start. Since running above 2000 I have not had to regen during or after backhoe use. Seat safety switch is sensitive and would cut motor when bouncing up and down, removed connector and jumped it to stay on all times. Treddel pedal safety switch intermittently would cause a no restart problem, keep it lubed up and wiggle it then try to start again. At the end of the day I don’t think the b3350 is as bad as they say because 75% of my problems we caused by things you would see on any Kubota with same parts. I still fear the regen especially during use but much less now that I know how and when I can tolerate the process.

I've been waiting for this video!

Also have a 2017 B2650, couldn't ask for better 👍🏻

I went to the local Kubota dealer a couple weeks ago hoping for some explanation of the various compact models & got nothing of the sort. In fact he made it even more confusing as the salesman even gave me an (old/outdated) B2650/B3350 brochure not mentioning those models are seemingly no longer made so I was left wondering what the difference between a BXX50 and an LX is which you so kindly answered.. Not such a warm fuzzy & I'd likely never buy a tractor from them. He basically pointed to a BX and said this is what you need (it may be) although I really like the physical size of the B (aka "small B") series and indicated I wanted something larger. You cleared up some confusion - Thanks!

Is the lx 2601 lower 3 point adjustable arm the same as the b2601 arms. I’d like to have the adjustable arms for my b2601.

Neil is it possible to get the LX 2610 with the larger front 25x8.5-14 R14 and the smaller rear 14-17.5 R14? Does this impact gearing? Thanks.

Do you think that you could do a interior video of the LX3310 cab tractor to show the room in there?

The Lx2610 will it take the Curtis cab from the 2650 now?? And does the front snowblower work on the Lx2610 ?? Didn’t know if I needed the mid pto for the snowblower?? Please let me know before I make a costly mistake of buying the wrong model lx2610 or lx2610su. Thank you

Can you drive the LX with a belly or three point lawn mower on a septic field?

I like to think of the BX as a smaller B, and the LX as a smaller L. At least, that’s how I explained it to Jackie.

DPF and fuel tank on top of hood gross seat does looks sweet though

My local rental company bought new B2650s couple years ago and I rented it at 30 hours. 1 year later rented it again at 1650 hours and still looks and functions great. You have a great machine there Chief.

Your selling me on a Kubota just went to my local dealer to kick the tires. They showed me B2601? Whats difference between version01 to 50?

Looks like they also got rid of that ridiculous bucket level indicator on the 50 series. I removed mine and made a simple indicator similar to what’s on the new series.

As to the weight of these LX tractor's I just got a LX2610HSD with the large R4'S loaded with RimGuard. A 60" bucket on the loader and Cheap Tarter 6' back blade it weights 3555 pounds

It looks like not enough clearance for tire chains; a common problem on many new tractors. I plow snow on the side of a mountain. Chains are a must.

Just wish my dealer could get one in. You guys ship?

Hey Neil, have you had any customers complain about the swift-tach setup on the LX series? I had both sides of the loader cone off (separate times) rather violently. One of those times smashed the side of the hood. I had to get the top pins back from the dealer and put them back in. In my opinion this loader/tractor is too heavy for that style of pawl. Both times mine pooped off from simply driving across the field. My assumption is the geometry us off, and the weight bounces just right to allow those pawls to unload and slip.

Would dealers possibly be discounting the 3350's maybe in time?....Don't guess the 525 loader off the L series would go on these either huh?
