I can say that I absolutely LOVE my BX23s.
Bought mine as a package. Loader, backhoe, mind mount mower, box blade, land plane, and brush cutter.
We bought 5 acres and it need work. Plus the wife hated the land scaping. We have owned our house for about a year and we have had the tractor for 8 months of it. Land scaping is looking great and the areas that needed to be cleaned up and brush cut, is all but completely squared away.
This little tractor does have it's limitations, but I have not found anything this little tractor can't handle. I have no plans on upgrading.
i just brought home a BX25 today, i think i am going to really like it, your videos are great thanks
Neil...great job on all your vids. Just purchased a new BX23S. Love it! Your knowledge of these tractors seems endless. Wish your dealership was in SC. Thanks so much!!👍👍
Thanks Neil I just traded my 2670 for a 23s thank this the one I've been waiting for thanks again
I just bought one and am waiting on delivery. These videos are proving very helpful. I suggested to my dealer that they do something similar. Great idea Messick's, if I lived near you I would have purchased mine from you.
Well done! Your visuals back up the words and that helps!! Wish ya'll were in Michigan! Thanks
Thanks for the video... been searching to see what the differences are.
thank you! I am in the market for a used machine and this has been very helpful
Just this year I purchased my first tractor, a very lightly used Kubota L4060 HSTC Grand Cab. I must say, by watching these Messick videos I certainly have learned a wealth of information. Keep up the good work. Now where's that video I watched regarding that little button on the joysticķ? Off to search.......
Keep up the BX videos! I enjoy them the most.
great video as always if you ever stop working at messicks i bet kubota would hire you thanks again for the great videos
Hi Neal very valuable video great work and thank You
awesome review as always. can't wait for the JD 3E vs Kubota L comparison
Jd lost me when they tried to reopen the proprietary nonsense about owner/operator field repairs violating their proprietary rights to pick your pocket for maintenance. They could fly and I'm stillnot interested in owning equipment built by such callous, souless money grubbers and liars. GM/Ford/Chrysler tried that in the late '60s, early '70s to shut out the home mechanics, independents and shade trees; and that is all JD is really up to. When you call your JD dealer for service on this equipment, you get told that sadly, there is no one available just right now, our tech will be there in 10 or 12 days and you will owe him $500 on arrival- have a check ready. thank you for your business.Screw that and the company it rode in on.
I upgraded from the 70 to the 80 after watching Your video
Thank you very much for this video that helps me a lot in my decision of buying one or the other. Very usefull video, thank's again!
could you upload some videos of the TLBs in operation
I'll keep my 25D thank you. The 'upgrades' don't make me want a 23. The additional linkages and complexity adds parts that will fail. The linkage for the loader stand is going to get bent and will jam. The 25D can't have that failure happen. Likewise, the 602 is not removed that often so why would I want the extra complexity of the 'cam system'? Do a little maintenance, wire brush the pins,. lube everything that moves, often, take the time to check the hoses and zerk fitting when you grease them, often, use good lubricants and the only reason you want a new tractor is because you need a bigger one!
Neil does his usual great job in front of the camera and I believe messicks is a top quality tractor supplier.
Sure wished you guys were local. I have a 15 2670 I’m looking to swap for a 23 but don’t know if I should trade it in or try and sell it myself. Thanks for the video. I’m definitely getting a 23.
I think the bucket on the front end loader is drilled for a blade bolt on.
what is the told weight of the 2019 bx23s
I need one!!
I have a 2002 BX 23 and it has cams instead of pins for the hoe. It still works sweet. My only complaint with it at all are the hydraulic couplings hold pressure sometimes. Great tractors
Dale Smith ON any machine if you shut off engine and cycle controls fully in all directions it should relieve hyd. Pressure and make hoses easier to connect.
Not sure how anyone can give a thumbs down on this video, as it's informative and very useful. In Australia, just put a new BX23S on order, and had debated whether I should have gone with a second hand 25D to save a few grand. This answered the question perfectly that I made the right choice, given there wasn't that much price in it, as I got a great deal on a new unit, and the second hand hold their value so well, the difference was not that much. Thanks very much for the helpful video!
Gday mate I’m in the market and have been looking at used 25d’s, but this vid shows some upgrades I’m keen to include in my purchase. If you don’t mind me asking, what did the 23s set you back? Did you also buy the backhoe?
Cheers, Mark.
The 23S comes standard with the backhoe. Has a few specific mods, like wider ROPS to allow spinning seat. Only has a 12 month warranty, for some reason. Got it at a VERY good price. With 4 in 1 bucket with extra hydraulics, 3 point hitch and load leveling indicator, under $28K incl GST, which is significantly less than the $35K retail. I couldn't get a second hand low hours 25D for that. Also going the 0.9% comparison finance. Works out 20% deposit, and will cost me only $350 interest over the 3 years of the loan. For that, will keep my money in the bank.
Thanks RW.
It’s ticking all the boxes so far! Yep for 350 interest you’d be silly to use your own coin. I’m off to haggle with the dealers tomorrow!
@@onthemark3480 Nods. Keep in mind the 0.9% apparently ends 31st December. You do need to comprehensively insure it to get the finance however, which was a bit of a prick, as my standard home and contents wouldn't do it. Had to hunt around and found comprehensive for $400 from CGU just for the tractor. Could have gotten full farm insurance but not worth it for 9 acres.
Never forget that the warranty on a new tractor/vehicle has value. As for saving money: you never want to end up the richest man in the cemetery.
I'll have to see if that intake silencer fits the 70, 4:42
do a video on a New Holland TC29D
One thing worth mentioning that my dealer told me today ( not sure if it's true but made sense.) The new quick release system of the bx23s weighs about 100lb more so the loader has to work harder just to lift the bucket and can't left as much for this reason. The dealer did mention however he would still get bx23s
Looking for a used bx. 23 in Troy Ohio. Can you help me out.finding one
I can't wait to have a 23s! But I want to pay cash, saving up!
does the quick hitch for the BX25 blade/ Snow blower/sweeper fit and function on the 23s? Is there an adaptor for the foot hydraulics to the new hydraulics hook up connector?
+Homesteading 101 they would fit the loader arms, but not the SSL hitch.
I see that Kubota have made changes to keep up with companies like John Deere, and their next upgrade will probably have the easy hitch feature like John Deere. That is the reason I picked John Deere for my upgrade, and since my older tractor have given me great service.
Love Big Green for years- have had three, won't buy another since they starrted spending the money they made on me and others like me to fly a federal lawsuit to back their proprietary right to be the only possible repair option. I know the smaller machines aren't rigged (so far) like this, but I support no company that literally seeks government license to pick my pocket.
What does the "S" denote in the model number...? Does that denote the skid steer bucket?
+Larry Kindrick yes
I have only had my BX23s for month and a half it has done very well very comfortable you can use it all day long and not be wore out very pleased so far.
Great, now I want to trade in my 70 series. I have Land pride pin style grappler and 3rd function. Can I use the same grappler with an adapter for the quick connect?
your quick connect will move over.
You mentioned the backhoes are virtually the same; will the hydraulic thumb kit p/n BT1975 still work on a BX23S? I think from another video I saw that kit was for a BX25
No, missing mounting brackets
Can you show one with a factory cab?
+Shawn Youngblood likely not. We don't have them through often.
What’s the price
Is the skid steer bucket an option or does it come with the tractor?
optional, but most of the ones we order it comes already installed.
what's the price difference?
Larry Kindrick around 350 if I recall. not in front of me.
I purchased my 2380 from Messick’s in their Abbottstown location. It came with the quick release bucket. Never thought I would use it. I was back 2 weeks later to purchase a snow blade. Extremely great feature well worth the extra.
Kubota should have installed grease fittings on those pins to reduce the possibility of pins "freezing" or "sticking" in the hole.

I use a spray called poly lube.
Wen it dries it leaves a transparent film of lubricant that doesent evaporate ...makes thing easy.
When all else fails a shot of penetrating oil does the trick.
I was wondering if I could buy just the loader joystick with the buttons?
Are you looking for a complete third function kit, or literally just the stick and buttons?
Messick Farm Equipment Well unfortunately I have a 1025r and an after market diverter and I hate the button that is zip tied to it. So I was looking at this one and wondered if I could modify it to work with the 1025r.
Yeah I wouldn't know why not. Our parts department can help you with the part that you need.
Messick Farm Equipment Thanks. I would just hope its not too expensive. Again thank you for the quick response.
Can you put a cab on the bx23s?
Yes. It is a dealer installed option. You can build / spec out your own on Kubotausa.com
Can I ask what is the total cost of the 80 Series shown as is? (Bucket & Backhoe) Compared to the 70 Series?
My husband & I are looking and comparing prices, between a Deere & Kubota...And to be honest, it seems you're paying for the John Deere name brand.
Thank you in kind.
I'd agree with you. Pricing on these is pretty complex when you start getting into all the options. A dealer needs to walk you though it.

So I have the 23s, I ordered the 4 foot snow thrower, drive over mower deck at 48 inches, bucket/12 inch, 4 foot loader, and a 3point hitch. I have the bar type tires and it’s the 23hp 3 cyl. It is 4wd. 30k for all with no interest payments for 5 years. 60 payments at 500$. It’s fully insured as well. I am so glad I got this thing! It’s been a pleasure to use and has functioned year round flawlessly.
Only down side is the place you purchase it from has to be reputable. The fluid levels and grease joints and cowling knobs must be checked prior to your receiving the tractor. The cowlings on mower deck came loose with in the first mowing and was literally chewed up since they never assembled the locking nuts on them properly. Also the front axle was literally 1.25 quarts low on fluid according to the dipstick (no fluid appeared on it when I received it). So do your due diligence and check the checkers!

Unfortunately a 7 foot garage is 84 inches and the rops stands at 86 so it will not fit in a 7 foot garage
I need a tractor that can safely lift a 800-1000# round bale. Does the BX23S have this capability?
No. Too far away from the Tractor. l2501 minimum.
If I remember correctly, my BX-25 is rated to lift only a click over 500lbs.
Quero comprar um Bx 250 ou o Bx 23x onde encontro no Brasil
This guy wants to buy one in Brazil, where can he purchase one?
does messicks do UK and if so will you deliver?
+panda plays/model railway sorry. We are in the states.
***** could you recommend any sites which do deliver in the UK please, by the way your videos are really interesting and fair I love your intro and keep up the amazing work!
+panda plays/model railway sorry. No idea.
***** ok
When is the new 2019 products available for sale?
Varies by model
@@MessicksEquip Is swift Tach available for the B50 series now?
No. See my video on 2019 changes.
Dang it, I only have eight more payments on my BX25D and now I have to go out and buy a 23S. I need to stop watching your vids!
Right?! I'm in same boat.
I have a 2004 BX 23 with 1200 hours on it, I can't find a reason to sell it, it still does what it needs to do
Ditto.... welded some things, replaced a couple hydraulic lines, serviced well its whole life and I have ran it hard as anyone would. These are just awesome machines.
En español porfavor q no sabemos dónde comprarlo
Have you ever heard of a movie called The Greatest Showman Neil?
Yea, it's fantastic
@@MessicksEquip I watch that at school A couple weeks ago.
How much India price
Looks like kubota used Paul Short's mod ideas on the new machine. The holes in bucket and rear of the bucket has a guard to keep dirt from falling back on tractor/operator. And no telling how many more mods he came up with kubota copied. Give credit where credit is due. Paul Short is truly the "Master". These are truly nice machines, though. I plan on getting me one in the near future.
