I don't own a cab enclosers. But, if I had to get one, I would have to do somesirius researce on them, if it wasn't OEM Kubota ...... I have heard different storys on different makes of after market cab enclosers............. something to think about, might try talking to some folks who has owned different ones , and then go from there ~~~~~ bczoom, have any ideas ?</P>
[quote user="TWO GUNS"]bczoom, have any ideas ?[/quote]
I don't have much info on the cabs.
I would give the Curtis serious consideration as that's what Kubota offered for the 900 (and made their own for the 1100). I'm sure Kubota must of thought relatively highly of it to use it themselves. It wasn't perfect otherwise they wouldn't have developed their own.
Ferg - Not sure where you live, but if there's any marinas near by, it's not unusual for a canvas maker to come in to do their canvas work. Since my RTV has a couple mods that would interfere with any of the aforementioned cabs, I would have to have one custom made and would contact a canvas maker for boats to build me something. They're normally a mobile unit (truck/trailer) so they could possibly come right to your place to fabricate something if you took this approach.
