DD1,

Just to be clear, when I said grey market I wasn't referring to the color of the tractor...many orange Kubotas are sold as gray market and will have Japanese markings and no seat belts on them. Personally, I wouldn't hesitate to buy one if I could verify that the local Kubota dealer had parts, which most of them do because they are the same basic tractors that are sold here but without some of the features.
