The problem with buying machines like this from a place like Kitsap Equipment is how long are they going to be a dealer? They have sold many different brands through the years and give no support at all down the road. I know, I have a customer who bought a Yuchai from them. And just because these machines have "common" brand name components does not mean you can buy them locally. Name brand companies often build components for various equipment companies that are proprietary, meaning you have to purchase the component from that specific equipment company.
