Jez Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Well least these new models confirm that claas really are the leaders in Combines when comes to output, comfort, technologie and dealer back-up pity 770 hasn't any massive difference over a 600 but then no-one can keep up with one anyway. We've tried everyone and 600 was still ahead of all Each to their own I suppose..... I have seen figures that can prove that comment very different.... Those two words do not really fit with Claas. Interesting pics Malc, I am eating my words with reference to the 40kph but lets see the sales in Europe. Any good pics of the "new" cab?

Tellarian Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 You don't move forward y sitting still mate [img alt=]http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/Smileys/default/wink.gif So when will we see the Bi Rotor then Jezmundo!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 So when will we see the Bi Rotor then Jezmundo!! I take it you don't mean the CTS system mate? That was the original lexion design.... As for a twin rotor design we have our C Series that works very well and keeps the customers happy.... Twin rotor for separating then that is the NH system....

Tellarian Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Jezmundo, The mighty Green have been sitting on the patents for 15 years... http://ralfmeister.com/birotor.htm Expect to see it in another combine soon! Respect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First paragraph sounds like that of a politician, Jez! The proof as they say is in the pudding I suppose. Claas have (so say) 75% of the combine market in the area our local dealer covers, hence why we had one within 24hrs of the TF breaking down. Nobody else has the sort of used nor new machines available like they do. Apart from NH, other brands hardly get a look in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we've sat both side by side in the same field or as good as and the only thing that came close is the NH CR9090. How do those 2 words not fit Claas had a S690i here last year and its horrendous, didnt like the cab, output was nothing amazing and only good thing was GPS. All demo's were set-up by the manufacturer and they stayed with it to keep it 100%. Its my own personal view and you've not agreed with my views on JD tractors either so need I say more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archbarch Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 in the words of my old boss 20 years ago "there is never enough dust comes off a JD combine" never knew what he meant till i drove one, output is very low compared to NH and Claas.

Paul Palmer Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 i think this topic is going way off,should be about claas combines not claas versus john deere or new holland,all peoples views differ about different brands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look here mate: http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,31599.msg660010.html#msg660010 Website link there too. That is where they shot the pics for the new claas models (Big Xerion etc) so i think they no more than they let on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegreen Posted August 15, 2010 Author Share Posted August 15, 2010 Well Claas arent going to reveal the new Lexion in 1/32 before in 1/1 but as I said at start of thread there is bound to be one coming soon after announcement of new machines just like when they introduced the Tucano I think it will almost certainly be the 770 flagship model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Malchy - thanks for all of those photos - looks superb - maybe in 30 years time we will be running one like that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
