I have no details but learned yesterday that John Furber has passed away. Most of you know or knew of John, he owned RSV Sportmax and supplied many of us with VMax rear end conversions for our bikes. He was also the originator of the Furber Fix that improved the handling of the VMax motorcycle and actually the RSV also. I have had several good conversations with John over the years and have bought two or three of the VMax rear end conversions from him. John was great to deal with. I don't know the details of his passing but I do know that he will be missed. God Speed My Friend.

I’m not sure that Scag still makes one either.

Unless it is actually in great cosmetic shape, you will likely put more into it than it will be worth. Also remember that the ‘83 - mid ‘85 had a transmission issue. Repairable but unless you are able to pull the engine and do the work yourself, it will be expensive and maybe hard to find anyone who will do it. Depending upon how many mikes are on it, either it has already lost second gear or will sooner or later. Sorry, probably not an opinion that you wanted to hear.

Well, my wife got me thinking about a new mower but after a little consideration, I really don't need one. I currently have a front deck Woods Mow 'n Machine. 22 HP Kawasaki motor, 61" front deck with power lift, etc. It's been, and still is, a good mower. I like the front deck as opposed to mid mounted because it allows me to get under all the evergreen trees we have that are low to the ground. I thought I would like to have a new Ferris FX800 front deck but have found that they were discontinued. There are very few options for a front deck system, Grasshopper and Walker seem to be the biggest players but they are very expensive. Then I started looking at used but nearly new ones. My Woods only as about 575 hours on it and most of the used ones have 1200 to 2500 hours on them and they are still asking around 10,000 and up for them. So, I figure if those are lasting over 2000 hours, mine with 575 hours should last a LONG time yet. So I'll take a ltttle better care of and hopefully it will last as long as I need it.
