Book of Redeye, Psalm 69
Anyone use the Proscape utility mower with the Kawasaki motor? Can buy on Ebay for around $720. Never seen one so don't know. Might be good.
Cheers

I looked around on various selling sites and just picked this up $130,very little use but was kept outside and got some rust.
Rover Super ute
Good little mowers. I got one from a clearing sale years ago for $70. Engine on mine is a little underpowered but that can easily be swapped. Also have a Honda utility mower.
If you do find a Rover Super ute make sure it's pre 2005.The newer models are crap in the new design.
The exit chute is smaller and clogs up with wet grass
Mate, whatever you do, stay right away from Masport, I've been stung with them along with other contractors.
The Proscape so far seems to be ok, (runs rings around the Crapsport)
Again, anything but the Masport, they're warranty and after sales service is non-existent and play games (It's the dealers problem, go to the dealer, it's Masport's problem)
DO NOT BUY A MASPORT - Made in China as well
Bought a masport Sp mulcher a few weeks ago. Mulches very well but plenty of negatives. Front wheel drive is weird and PITA. Not much choice in the SP dedicated mulch mower range. Chose this over the victa mulchmaster only because of deck shape. Took a gamble so only time will tell.
Hi
Anyone used a Bushman utility mower? Look to have a different side discharge then most.

Big fan of Big Bob. Simple, sturdy, efficient. Only drawback is spineless Honda Motor which was rectified by B/S 850 transplant (an almost cost neutral exercise owing to the multitude of Honda fans prepared to pay through the nose for as new engine).
Any dramas with mounting holes, spindle, blade carrier etc when you added the B&S?
Fairly straightforward. Whole operation performed one rainy Sunday arvo over drinks!!
