I don't recommend a Kubota Sidekick, I have owned one for 3 years now, bought it new. Check the online manual error codes...almost every one says "take it to a dealer". Like I have nothing better to do than pack this up, travel to a dealer and unload it, travel back to get it and then pay a ridiculous labor and parts bill. I have an reoccurring error 36 , speed sensor. Take it to dealer it says the manual and can find nothing on what action I can take. BTW it seems to run ok with the error.

Hi! I'm interested of getting this bike. But I need to know if I'd look appropriate on it, and may I ask you, about the height of the rider of this bike in the video, just for reference for the bike's actual dimensions? Thanks in advance.

What’s he speaking?

Drove one yesterday. I guess its ok. But other than the steering it reminds me of my hyster that i drive at work.

Really hate that brake in the middle of the seat, terrible idea.

How much to ship one of these to mid Canterbury?

Great Video, Impressive machine, thanks for sharing

We have one biggest piece of junk we've owned . Constant electrical problems

Damn music, i can hardly hear what he says.

I need more Aussies in my life

can you mount a plow on it?

Sweet

Shoot I thought they's have these Lithium batt bank by now and motorized hub so differential, better clearance. Looking forward to that......or a hybrid if keeping the diffs for range, and a "stealth" quiet electric only mode.

over designed big time!

Chris is really a good man

Tier 2 engine. 1 world different regulations on pollution..... Wish we had that.

Is that tractor big enough for the job 😂

“Hell, yeah. Bring it on.” Love that statement in Australian. Sounds exactly like what we say down South in the states. Love Australia 🇦🇺. 👍

excellent job

Have $$$ in the bank, was off to go buy a brand new one this week. Stupidly assumed they were lithium. Lead acid are you kidding? Yeah no, ill go elsewhere.

Thinking about picking up a used one of these.. they're ugly, but I like them for some reason. Probably because they're kind of an oddball

Thanks god bless

How much is that machine in New Zealand

I wonder if you already tested japanese 4x4 kei trucks. they're quite fun and surprising little vehicles.

So the only interesting part in the cab you jump to scrne pulling rake.

I,m from Ireland. Donnelly,s make good quality trailers, they last for years. In Ireland a lot of contractors are moving to hardox bodies.

That's a fine trailer, very interesting video

My Honda ATV does logging roads and trails really well. My 89 Argo Magnum 8x8 does swamps, lakes, and forest really well.

In New Zealand, we can get this EV for start price bout $22k, there’s a “commercial” model using Lithium batteries for about $40k base model so there’s that to take into consideration for you “ew lead acid” warriors. I work on a goat farm where we use Cushman electric utility carts with lead acid batteries anyway, I would be keen to try one of these on the farm. We also have a Ranger 570 which is a lot more comfortable than the Cushmans but loud so this EV would be the best of both worlds

Yikes ! I could school this morning on my dirt bike. And if I’m going fast enough I can cross water without sinking

The lead acid batteries are a deal breaker for me. Beside their terrible cold weather performance, they will have to be replaced every 3-5 years, and require consistent maintenance. I’ve also read message boards where people have been complaining about the charger malfunctioning, and boiling off the water from the batteries, destroying them. From what I can see, it would take about $1,500 worth of lead acid batteries or $5,500 worth of lithium batteries to replace the original batteries. That has to be factored into the cost of buying and running such a machine.

Hello from Canada. The Argo has an accessory to mount a boat engine onto the back. The Argo is a great product and that makes it even better if you need to go far distances in water.

This thing is awesome. I want one to trail with.

Awesome mate 👍🙂🇳🇿

Checking water levels every charge. Leaving the hood open to charge? Seriously that hood would be blown off and in the neighbors yard on the first day. What a joke. Almost wanted one until I saw the charging process.

I really want this tractor! But in black

im in manawatu i love farmers

🏆🏆🏆👍🇺🇲🙏 SUBSCRIBED Thank you for sharing

1900s technology, just great...

THE BEST

The engine is good. But I will not buy that Foton. I will choose Ram 🐏 1500 or Toyota Hi Lux

Lead acid? That is an overpriced golf cart. Absolutely ridiculous.

Do they offer a roof on top on roll cage?

i see rolleston, great to see a video review from a kiwi

Please read this before purchasing a Kubota Sidekick. Buyer beware, this purchase was doomed from the start I ordered in October 2020 didn’t receive the machine until February 2021, my machine was ordered with a lot of extras price coming in at over $27,000 now fast forward to April the machine had 32hrs on it and the transmission went on it.. it went in the shop on 4/27/2021 next Tuesday 6/22/21 it will be in the shop 8 weeks, this is a brand new machine and I’m told 4 parts are on back order, and in the almost 8 weeks I have been without it only one part has come in for it.. this is unacceptable and unacceptable to do this to customers. I used to think Kubota was the top dog but learned that their customer service gets an F- grade. I sold a 2018 X-900 to buy this and I regret it everyday. Not having this machine is costing me money by the hour on my farm I am not running efficiently and that’s why you spend almost $30,000 on a machine for efficiency. I contacted customer care and let me tell you they do not care I was told I could pay to expedite shipping of my parts from out of the country LOL LOL I have paid a lot of money for this machine that is still in the shop and the gull of Kubota to tell me I can pay to have them shipped. I am almost ready to tell the dealership to keep it I don’t even want it back I will go buy a Polaris not that even matter s to Kubota also going to upgrade from a B2620 tractor in the near future and it breaks my heart to say I really do not think I will consider a Kubota I was a lifetime customer and I think they have ruined that for me. So buyer beware Kubota made faulty equipment on my machine but somehow has become my problem and trust me I am paying for it everyday......oh and I am not accepting excuses at this time for CVD I along with most other persons with a brain are over that excuse it’s time to get back to work these companies will find out we will stop buying their products if they can’t give us what we need and what we pay for......I have also been told Kubota is just interested in catching up with their new machine sales and not worried about manufacturing parts so if you buy one and you have something break on your machine good luck... I am spreading this message to all social media outlets and already filed a report with BBB I want people to know what Kubota really thinks about their customers....

No needs for DOC, DEF, DPF and all that shit in NZ ? Here in Germany the same modell have an exhaust as big as from the titanic...

Now that it's five years later, let's see a video of how they held up. Did buying a rock-cheap Chinese loader give you a good ROI? How was parts availability? How many hours on the machines currently?

mantap men

Barry when ya gona start reviewing dirt bikes again c'mon mate just read your review on the CRF450x... us trail muppets need more honest reviews !!!! cheers
