I think you might get a shock, what did you think of the Riko set up?

[Buzz]

Yes they all look very good, this small kit is so damn expensive though ! I could buy a 8t forwarder for what these outfits cost new !!

[slasherscot]

and with a 2 tonne payload..15-20tons a good day.......its costing £15-£20 a ton to roadside

[digga]

seen those before look like a great bit of kit but bet its not cheap but would be great for small jobs when theres not enough wood to make it worth moving my forwarder

[arc]

I've never looked into them but I bet your teking £20 - £25K for one

[Buzz]

Yep found an FC apprasial of one, result = good kit 21k !!

Carraro also make load carriers, I don't know if Riko import those too:

There's a recon one on Autotrader.

Got a price of the dealer 28k FFS !!!!!!!

If I had to utilise a small forwarder...

I would buy a 4 or 5 tonne Yanmar tracked dumper, fit a small crane / grapple and some timber bunks.

All up cost of less than £7K, unbelievably terrain ability, awsomely manouverable and very reliable.
