    Default Country Clipper joystick ZTRs

    I saw one of these today outside a shop and had to go in and ask the guy why they had taken the steering handles off. turns out you control them with a little pull out joystick! they look weird without the normal arms and are only a domestic machine anyway so im not thinking about one, they look pretty basic but just out of curiosity id love to know if anyone has driven one before and how they handle? allpower bring them in from the states.

    My dads got one for his few acres says its a good machine takes a fair while to get used to the joystick. Has run over his fair share of small trees he was trying to mow around. Definately domestic only cant see the joystick catching on.

    Cheers

    The front casters and what they are attached to doesn't look real strong... recon I'd break it...

    The only advantage with a joystick I can see is that you have one hand free to scratch your nuts or drink booze. May as well have one of these. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kG90X...eature=related
