    How much did you get for your second Honda Beetle??

    I decided to mulch a block of units that takes 2 of us 70 minutes to catch with Honda's. I was impressed with the job, I couldn't tell that it had been mulched and we did it in under 1 hour. They mulch extremely well..

    beetle, on your rover, any chance of showing how they attached the throttle assembly to the governer assembly? I cant get my mind around it, and Im interested in putting one on mine, instead of the one speed stem,

    thanks

    Hey Dean. Sounds like you've been converted to Rover now?

    This 560 i got is the early American ver.It has a Honda engine and a variable engine speed push/pull lever like a Honda mower.It has the same full width drive lever as the Honda mower a push bar to self propel.

    The new one i'm picking up in a few weeks will be the Pro Cut 50.If that helps you both i can take a picture as i'll have the rover engine on it..Or possibly the Kohler engine but both have controlled engine speed.

    The reason i'm not buying another 560 is price,as i can buy a pro cut 50 for $650 and the 560 is $200 more.I can't see the extra $200 being worth it.

    Any "walk-behind"-Toro dealers in Australia. I can only find ZTRs. I don't want a Rover. I don't want to pay the money for a Honda. What to do...

    Theres a toro dealer here in SA but I ended up not going with a Toro. Had them in the past and didn't like it. Recently purchased a masport SP mulcher for $850. Mulches very good but no side throw. Thought I'd see how it pans out. Really theres not a lot of choices if you want a SP.

    Nowa power products in Bundaberg sell Toro s/p mowers. They are possibly one of the largest toro dealers in queensland. They also do contractor discounts
