    Re: Masport vs Tanaka Edger

    Hey Jal. I purchased an old Victa Tiltacut too. Cost about $100 off Gumtree. It's old, like 20 or so years old, but looks new and works awesome. Cuts through thick roots and grass across footpaths....

  6. Re: Honda HRX217HYA imported from USA - A better mower for less $$ than an Aussie HRU

    Sorry to keep adding snippets piecemeal, but our mowers are set to 3200RPM as per the owners manual that came with my HRX. However, the below site suggests that max power of 5.1HP occurs at 3600RPM....

  8. Re: Honda HRX217HYA imported from USA - A better mower for less $$ than an Aussie HRU

    I've got an hour meter on my HRX. In Brisbane soil conditions (which until recently meant mowing lots of dirt, rather than grass) I am getting 40-45 hours out of a bottom blade and double that out of...
  9. Re: Honda HRX217HYA imported from USA - A better mower for less $$ than an Aussie HRU

    I see Speedway Sales are not selling to Australia anymore. I just tried to buy blades and a bag, and at the checkout, the only country options are USA, UK and Germany. :(

    Anyone know where we can...

  11. Re: HRX owners, please help. Electric start key - are they unique?

    Thanks Arfa, couldn't be that hard mate. But I am still using the steering lock key off my Honda Valkyrie motorcycle to start it each day because it works. So as long as its working, I don't think I...
  12. Re: HRX owners, please help. Electric start key - are they unique?

    Thanks Redeye, yep, it looks like the mowers are the same, common key. And thanks Ian for the PM! It looks like we have the answer.

  13. Re: HRX owners, please help. Electric start key - are they unique?

    Really? No-ones got more than one HRX that they can check the keys on for me?

    Luckily for me the key to my motorbikes steering lock is doing the trick for now. I'll report back if/when I find out...
  14. HRX owners, please help. Electric start key - are they unique?

    I stupidly tied my electric start mower to my utes ladder rack by the handlebar yesterday, and the mower moved around a bit in the back causing the ladder rack to dislodge the key. So I go to mow my...

    Re: Equipment Hire

    I bought the Repco 7HP for $500 recently, with the 20% RACQ discount. Comes with a Lifan engine (best of the Chondas) and the pressure is fantastic. Works really well.

    Re: USA Honda

    Good to see Honda Oz have listened and are bringing these brilliant machines in.

    I can vouch that my HRX with the bar blades has hit a hidden tree stump very bl@@dy hard. It stopped the engine...
  17. Re: Honda HRX217HYA imported from USA - A better mower for less $$ than an Aussie HRU

    Me too. Baa Baaa.

    Mines a few months old now and still loving it. Only issue is the height adjustment increments. It would be nice to have an extra increment between 1.5 and 2 (inches btw).
  18. Re: Honda HRX217HYA imported from USA - A better mower for less $$ than an Aussie HRU

    Possibly BSD. It's just way too cheap isn't it? I hope it hasn't been stolen from anyone here.

    If anyone on here HAS had a HRX stolen, hopefully this post could help them reconnect with their...
