goatfarmer Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 Simplicity/Deere dealer in the next town has a few used tractors out front for sale. One of them was a Yamaha.Blue with white stripes. Is this made by Yamaha,or someone else with the Yamaha name? Didn't get to stop and inspect it up close.8D
MPH Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 Are you sure its not a Yanmar, think that spelled close, think it them who make the jd 4 wheel drive compacts..MPH
TimJr Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 Yes, Yamaha did have some riding tractors from the late '80's and early 90's. Stay away - way away - can't even get blades for them. I don't know who actually made them. A friend owns a Yamaha bike dealership, and he had a couple around. Yanmar tractors are red usually. They did make JD compacts, the current 990 is still Yanmar, however the other models are not. Some of the small ones are made by another Japanese company, while the larger compact/utility tractors are either German, Turkish, or American (kind of a combination on some).
goatfarmer Posted November 6, 2003 Author Posted November 6, 2003 Yes,definately Yamaha.Now you've peaked my curiosity.Gotta go give it a closer look.....;)
