Everyone complaining about the color, big deal, it's still a Lexion. I like that they are no longer scared of their own color on their combine in NA. The White and Green will grow on people over time. I'm also glad they are bringing over more tractors, hope they have the terra trac option for the 900 series Axions.
Yes they have a TT option for Axion and new also at the Jaguar Frageharvester
Personally I prefer the green ones
In 1988 I went to a Class service school in Columbus Indiana, theme was Combines with new electronic monitoring, diagnostic, repairs and Balers both round and square. There sitting in the facility was a prototype Claas CS116 multi cylinder system and on Caterpillar challenger tracks. The instructor gave us the quick rundown on this unit, V12 Mercedes, Dual Computer controlled hydro-stat systems and yield monitoring. The side doors at the back of the tracks were quite distorted and he was asked about it, we got to watch a vhs video of this thing in action, 7 MPH with a 12 row snapper head in corn. Someone forgot corn ground is not always level, when turning the tracks pick up trash, oops their goes the side doors, not enough clearance. Being a small town Ag Mechanic from Canada this was like looking at the space shuttle. By the way we sold Green Claas's through the 80's and into the 90's but also being a Ford/New Holland dealership. Had to pick the latter. I liked both manufacturers, each had their own personalities.
There is Claas and then there is everybody else!
Yep everyone else’s machines have less moving parts with just as much capacity
I like the colors much better.. Wish they had a bigger dealer network, wouldn't mind looking at one..
Big tractor power is the best UA-cam learning channel for any ages....plus it's fun family time with the kids to learn.
Nice catch. I'm hoping to catch one of these soon myself as well. As always, very informative video
I am so happy they went with true claas colors. I hope they also stick with Mercedes engines instead of cat in the new models.
I think all connections to Caterpillar are now over. None of the new 8000 or 7000s use CAT engines.
Cliff h. Why? You like spending $50,000+ for a rebuild on a Mercedes.
Apparently they'll still have the Perkapillar (Perkins/Cat) on some models in Australia - we don't get the 8900 either. I gather it's because emissions requirements aren't quite as stringent so can get away with the Tier 2/Tier 3 engines on some models.
Depending on the model it's either MB or MAN
@@bigtractorpower -- Does Cat even still build agricultural engines? I know they stopped building truck engines about 9 years ago or so.
I like your videos before I even watch them because i already know i'll learn something...thanks.
I've got to admit I sleep better after watching farming and harvesting videos. Great drone video! Thanks for your hard work. Your color saturation is awesome!
I'm with you. You should start a Kickstarter account for travel money, I'll buy you a tank. Lots to see here up on the Red River Valley during the sugar very harvest. You might get run over by a beet truck driver or hit a slick of thick clay mud at 60mph though, ha. It's late in the season here and 24 hours a day.
Love your videos Big Tractor, I would love for you to come to Mississippi this fall and video my new Gleaner S97. We will start corn in abought 10 days and beans around the first of September.
Excellent job on the stats and history!
I feel a sense of privilege being able to see a machine like this. So new and rare in the USA but wow is that thing a beast. I would know nothing about this were it not for your incredibly detailed and entertaining content. Not sure how you find the time to put all of this together and still keep gathering up new stuff for next week. Keep up the amazing work. I’m a big fan. 17/10.
Very nice Video...I was at the Europe Presentation in France....it was awesome..
Great Video, Great Machine, Very good info on new Combine.............
Love CLAAS
In the 80s and 90s CLAAS combines were also sold as MASSEY FERGUSSON in North America.
I don't understand some of these manufacture partnerships. It's like Ford selling their trucks as chevys.
Since CLAAS is a German company it provided them a way to get their equipment into the American market then they could start selling them as CLASSes once they have a foothold. And the foothold is necessary, especially since Americans are partial to American companies like John Deere and Case.
That machine is a beast!
Great video! Awesome! Love the view from the air, you get to see a lot more. Thanks for sharing!
Well recorded, well edited and certainly well documented
Cool! But In my opinion I think I like the black and yellow colors better than the green and white, but still a very cool machine! Great video!
The Lexion is a well built combine.
They’re finally getting the proper Claas colours in NA.
Proper Engines, too! No more Cat! Thankfully.
Great video!!
Thank you for watching.
interesting to see the new models out perform the old ones
very nice video of a very,very nice machine thank you
I'm glad that green and white claas has made it to America.
the new paint scheme will not sell well here in america; most all farmers ive talked to loved the cat paint scheme and most have said they will go back to case since the new case is just as good now with their new series combine
Jason n Maybe but I think with time everyone is going to like them.
Huh. How about that. It's always a good day when I learn something. I always wondered why Claas combines in the US were yellow. Interesting
Thank you for watching. Claas has an interesting history in the United States. They also produced combines from Massey in the early 90’s. I hope to find a Claas Massey to film.
Too bad it sounds like the 8900 isn’t coming to the U.S. 790 horsepower though is insane.
MrGold1069 can't believe they are not going to the USA, they are even available here in South Africa. Would that be a class 11 combine?
I wonder if 8800 comes with 18,000 Litres grain tank?
Jamie Shields the 8600 and above have the 18000l 510bu tank
@@jamieshields9521
8800 Terratrac: 18k litres
8800 Wheeled: 15k litres

You forgot to mention the 8460 Massey Ferguson, which was a Claas painted red.
Hey I just saw some of that 170 bushel corn the usda says we will have in this video... August 1st and it’s 3 feet tall... it must be magic corn
Time will tell but from a super wet spring to a dry summer it is not looking like a bumper crop in many places.
Beautiful countryside. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching.
Good to see them assembled in the USA!
👍👍🇺🇸
THE BEST
Needed to either reposition, or idle down the engine, when unloading on the truck. He was losing some wheat over the side, from the strap deflecting it.
A CLASS VIDEO WELL DONE AND THE STORY OF CLAAS
Thank you for watching. I like sharing history.
Really modern agriculture at there.
Awesome machines! Love the limegreen/white paint scheme. So there will be no 8900 available in the US???
Yeah there will be, such a massive market for claas
Probably not, I don't think US crop requires that much HP.
Probably emissions issues?
Nice to see the faster unload rate, the tube seems a lot larger
awesome machine we have the 760 world record holder above and beyond them all in bushels harvested. would be interesting to see the 795 set a ecord to smash it.
Excellent 👍
I hate to see the Cat yellow disappear, but sense there’s no affiliation with Cat anymore, it’s appropriate.
It is a big shift but the unified look is neat to see.
Nice video btp. There still using that Warner stepladder to enter the engine compartment
Was cutting highway hay and a clean 740TT passed me on a lowboy just tonight, beauty machine but just look "right" in it's factory colours.
Looks good !
The matching header will make it look even better :)
Hopefully I will catch a 7500 in corn or beans this fall. It was neat to get to see one of the first ones like this.
@@bigtractorpower Yes, this is an awesome find, they're fresh out the factory. I didn't even know Claas had started delivering them already.
Great information on the video.
Thank you for watching.
Very nice, the hopper looks like an upside down marquees tent, very nice machine
I was hoping that you would be having a video on he new combines! Thanks so much for this. I wasn't too happy to watch the euro videos in different languages.
Not manufactured in Omaha. Assembled in Omaha. Still built in Germany.
Everyday Man Tomāto tomâto
You can't buy the 8900 in the States
Great vid Jay! Was a good excuse to get the old Ford in there as well 😉 i prefer the Class color scheme over the challenger. Combines today are enormous!
I grew up near an all Ford combine. Any time I can show a Ford I like too 😁. Thank you for watching.
Yeah I remember you telling me that, I did as well. Did you ever get any footage of that one you discovered on your way to E-town two years ago? Anyway thanks for all you’re doing
When I saw the blue GMC pulling the header trailer into the field I thought that Ryan from How Farms Work was getting a new combine demo or replacing his deere.
For the last few years i have wondered why they let the Yellow paint thing stay since the Challengers are nothing to do with Cat anymore either... And now with the Agco Challenger Dealers setting up to all push a fendt combine and tractors claas finally took off the gloves off .. So this basically means the whole Cat Yellow thing the Dealers just had to have is no long the case and i bet we see a swing in the Attitude now as Challenger Dealers move away from Claas
Monster Harveste
They keep getting bigger.
Nice...!!!!!.
I built this! Seriously, in Omaha Ne!
Trackside Solution that's awesome!
Great vid BTP on new Claas combine👍interesting no 8900 model, I hope any Claas buyer can option on 18,000 Litres grain tank the biggest in market, bigger then Fendt Ideal 9. I got to see new MF Ideal combine here in Australia at Speed, Victoria field days, it very interesting but unfortunately it had couple big cracks in plastic cover near auger n on back panel. I wonder will this have low resale value with all the plastic?
im gonna guess they arent going back to Yellow and black?
As always, another outstanding video. One thing though that I can't figure out. The big circle thing that spins on top (air intake?). Was it flashing because of the camera picking it up or is there some kind of lighting in there that illuminates it.
Ryan Schalau light reflection on the engine fan
It is a big circular fan to keep dust build up in the engine compartment
Thanks for the video! I think the yellow looks much better, but that just me! Colour makes a huge difference! Just ask Versatile, there idea of retro has really hurt sales, it’s been down ever since that changed the colour. Hope that is not the case with the Claas combine!
That is one hell of a nice combine I love the tracks on the front of it I did notice it was leaving a mess row of straw behind it is that an optional feature or is that a standard feature that it has
It is an option from claas you can also get the windrow tight if you want to have.
The fact of a big windrow is that wet strow will dry better if it's raining.
CLAAS will be on Farming Simulator 19 - Platinum Edition this October.
Go Omaha Nebraska! :) I always knew CASE made machines in GI but I never knew about CLAAS in Omaha.
👍👍
I always laugh at the ladder on the back of CLAAS combines. It looks like they went to Home Depot or Lowes and bought an extension ladder and broke it into 2 parts and stuck it onto the combine. They could at least paint it to match. lol
It aluminium ladder, so no point of painting it, bcs paint will peel of easily. Its a common to see such ladders on European agri machinery. They are used a lot on differed tippers, combines etc.
@@V8Tomek How about a steel ladder painted to match? The added weight, with as much as these combines weigh, would not add that much. Look at the ladders on other U.S. made combines. They always match the color of the combine.
@@ChiefAUS nope it will rust and look like shit
They are used all over the machine at strategic spots to work on putting belts and chains on using the same ladder
Was I see stuff or from the drone part it looked like something flat flashing on the tip side of the combine at the back. What was that?
There is a fan above the engine compartment.
jacob looks like a cleaner System for the radiator screen
John filmed this machine for BTP. It is a cleaning fan. It does look like a flap lifts from time to time. AGCO has a self cleaning engine area that runs a reverser every 15 minutes to blow out the dust. Claas may have a similar set up. I look forward to learning more about the 7000 and 8000s.
Bun claas🚜🚛
What county? Rock? I'm in far western Waukesha County.
Watched live stream 🚜👍
Wow a Claas Ten Combine. I wonder if the big farms in western Ky will give up class 8 and 9 combine for Claas
Are they the hybrid theshing system like the JD CTS system? Thanks.
What is the yield in metric tons/hectar
Howcome you reuploaded this?
🚜🚜🚜
Jason, another great review, but will I have "STICKER SHOCK"?
Just dont go near the class 10, expect to pay a million to go straight cutting.
What is a bushel in liters?
10,600
Thanks BTP. Am I right in saying there are 35 litres to a US bushel? I am from Ireland and I have no idea what a bushel is. Just trying to get a feel for quantities when you talk in bushels. Love those Claas machines. Cheers buddy
That is my grandpa
Very cool. He has seen allot of Claas history for what I hear.
@Bigtractorpower, why are class refusing to sell the 8900 outside Europe?
It is not that they are refusing too there is not a need for the extra horse power outside of Europe. Europe has larger wheat yields and damper harvest conditions than any where else. The 8900’s extra horse power is required in Europe. The 8900 is over powered to harvest corn in the United States for example. Even with an 18 row 30 inch corn head the 8800 is plenty of combine for corn.
@@bigtractorpower Yet i asked my dealer as i harvest 30,000HA and he said too bad...go figure. Thanks for your time.
Where are you farming? Even with the 780 previously it was found the 760 handled just as well in corn. The high horse power is great in heavy wheat but does not preform any higher in lighter crops than the next model down.
@@bigtractorpower In Australia, main crops are wheat and barley.
The Field is not so large i had expected for America. Is this normal in Wisconsin? And in the Background is very much Green. Looks like there is not so much Wheat.
Not everything is the stereotypical large 100+ acres fields or everything wheat
@@maxhallman1036 I thougt stereotypical ist Maize....
@@Standeck23 in some areas yes
Where in Wisconsin
what speed were they harvesting at
I am not sure. I would 2.5 to 4 mph. That seems common in wheat.
thanks for replying I'm a big fan of your videos. lot of info in them. from Trinidad and tobago
Not even 2920! Yet!!!
Just like cars and trucks farm equipment model year introductions start early. New farm machines for 2020 are introduced in August 2019.
As if the colour means anything or makes a difference to the performance except to the narrator.
Brand and paint color is an important factor to many farmers. This video was simply to highlight the very first new series Claas sold in North America.
Am i going insane , or did i allready watch this video before ?
No it was posted for 30 minutes on 8/1. I realized I left a 13 second clip out so I pulled the video, added the clip and reposted today.

👍👍
Personally I like the yellow better. Just never cared for the lame green/white scheme. BTW, I always load over the drive axles first. Never know if there will be a problem and the truck will have to leave partly loaded.
That thing looks Like it belongs over seas! No thanks
Why do they use rear tires and not a full set of tracks?
Claas tried a two track design long ago and didn't like it to well.

😁👍
Those green and white colors are so ugly
Bitch bitch bitch you sound like my wife
@@kentnauman9863 oh go fucking cry about it you little bitch
We humbly accept this mass of yellow and black paint as a righteous gift for our troubled Chapter!
t. Blood Ravens
I think they look awesome
Ugliest machine on the market! Those colors suck!
Still one of the best preforming tho
