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.

I'm going to need it very soon and it scares the heck out of me. Bering completely blind in one eye, I'm terrified about having the other one messed with

Well to be honest, I think that changing their oil and filters on a regular basis is the most important thing. Any oil that meets thee specs and is non energy reducing is fine. The truth is, I started using Mobil One back in the late nineties and have just come to trust it. People have some string opinions regarding which oil is best and I just use what has treated me well for many years. To be honest though, I've been riding for over 50 years and have used many different oils and have never had an oil related engine issue. I guess if I had to point out a reason, it would be because I don't have to drive to, order, or find a Yamaha dealership if I need oil when on a trip. That really isn't a big issue though because my RSVs have never needed any oil between changes and I've rarely taken a trip that requires an oil change before I get back. home. In fact, there has been only one trip that I probably should have changed it during the trip but didn't.

I don't believe all those statistics that Home Depot is claiming but I do agree that it's being shoved down our throats.

Great deal. Especially right now when a lot of dealers are still trying to get more than MSRP. When Eileen totaled my truck last year, I couldn’t find one and ended up ordering one and paying MSRP but everybody else was trying to add 2500 to 5000 bucks.
