Read articles →This is a long-term owner's retrospective, not a shopping walkaround: the owner has run this Yanmar YM2200 gray-market tractor for 16 years and covers its background as a 'grey market orphan,' the unusual multi-speed PTO setup with actual RPM figures, oil-immersion air cleaner, a homemade (non-ROPS) roll bar, overheating quirks, and honest talk about parts scarcity and its bad reputation online. Best for buyers considering an older gray-market Yanmar who want candid long-term reliability insight over a spec sheet.
