Brazilton KS
I have one season of corn and a few hundred acres of beans experience with our 670. Settings certainly make a lot of difference, however if you are currently running a Deere rotor, you should be used to that. I'm a conventional guy, so it kind of took me a little to get used to.

In good cutting conditions I was cutting 45-50 bu beans 30' as fast as the cutterbar could handle it. I picked 12 rows of corn at 6 mph up to around 150 bu with no problem.

When it starts to rain, the thing really falls out of bed in comparison to conventionals.

I have a hard time figuring out how a 6 row head could possibly load either of those machines in any conditions, or an 8 row in anything short of high moisture, high yielding corn.

We have a C9. I think those machines have Sisu engines. Still, the hp is supposed to be similar.
