Any decent welder could build a ROPS that would work on a D11. There are even ROPS cabs that have a name plate that says, "This roll over protective structure is designed for roll over protection but is not tested". A huge portion of the cost of an approved ROPS is the testing and certification. I quoted some cylinder carts for a cutting torch set up with a lift hook on them. The customer needed them to be engineer approved with a certification plate attached. The certification added over $100 to each cart. The customer needed 10 carts.
I would think that if you signed a release of liability a good fab shop or welder could make you one but a lot of stuff like roll bars will fit several models. I would check with tractor salvage yards for a used one first.
