I have worked on several that have them in 'em....we live in an area that has a battery production plant so that's why. I would be interested in that answer also, as to why not use them!

I believe to ignore, you just scroll on bye or don't click at all, or.........you could just stay in bed all day!

The one thing nobody has mentioned yet, no matter what brand you buy is....one of the most important things about buying a piece of equipment is, ....buy from a Dealership (not a box store) that is close to you. Equipment needs maintenance and regular service to last. So if you can't perform...

And carb, coil, V regulator and....well, for me....most anything I got room for! Then memory comes into play.....were did I put that!

Bad Boy builds one......it bolts to most any spot on their frame. Could probably be bolted on any mower frame with a little ingenuity!

Again...whatever you are mowing, sticks, leaves or just grass, wears the bottom of the lift area in time (just as it wears out the cutting edge also), then creates a wear line, and breaks off.

I agree with this reply....still with only 1 hr on the mower, call where you bought it and tell them what happened.

That is a long distance from your Dealer, I'm taking it that you walked in, and bought it from a Ferris Dealership? If so, call them (where you bought it) and tell them about it, see what they tell you. If you bought it online, or somewhere else, it could be difficult for a Dealer (where you...

Leaves, sticks, even just grass will wear out blades like that in time......2 years is quite a long time for one set of blades! Those Mulch type blades don't have as much material / steel on the "lift" part of the blade to start with so...they will wear out even quicker!

Our security cameras were installed by a longtime active security company, they used HikVision cameras. The system works real good!

We sell them daily for 22.99.....that is for a air filter & pre-filter kit. These OEM filters work real well!

What is your main reason for all that modification?

Exactly....why would anybody attack someone holding an AR-15, anyone with any brains would run the other way!.....they got what they deserved! AMERICA STRONG

Finally got the #2 cyl head for the B&S EFI engine today....only took 5 1/2 months for it!

We just got 18 more 2022 Bad Boy mowers last Thurs, that with the 21 BB mowers we got the week before that....that is 39 of the 98 ordered 2022 BB mowers in a 2 week span. Also 1 new Ferris came in last week but, it was on the 2021 order....so

Well for one thing....the price of steel has went up 215% since less than a year ago. The manufacturer can absorb some of that cost but the end buyer has too come up with the rest of it! I don't know when the USA will figure out not to sell foreign countries steel for xx, then turn around and...

I understand COMPLETLEY! I still monitor this forum daily but, quit giving advice (that took years of schooling and decades of experience to learn) about a year ago....for a lot of the same reasons as yourself, and a couple more!

I see another GOOD TECH has left the forum, StarTech is gone..... looks like only 1 other Tech on the forum has the info he did and will post that info!

I'm not sure where they are located on the cover/shroud of a 12 HP but, there are usually 3 lines of #'s stamped on it. You have to look at every square inch of the shroud real good. I guess there could be a tag on the shroud also but, most likely stamped!

No Yamaha and No Briggs & Strattons......all for various reasons! They are Kawasaki, Kohler and Hondas! We are yet to get the Hondas....as they are on the larger models and they should be on the 2nd or 3rd delivery!

Nobody likes being charged a lot of money for any repair, especially after they pay and the problem is not repaired......but if it is repaired, they don't mind it "as" bad. Just remember, you can't always please everyone.....no matter what you do, even if you do a lot of it..... for free!

We just got 21 new Bad Boys in 2 weeks ago, which is a full tractor trailer load. There are 77 more on the way. New Ferris mowers started arriving last week. Cub Cadets are on order but have yet to see any of those.

Those bolts, if it is original, have Loctite on them too.....so the piece up in there is Loctited in!

The reason I asked that is, 1 tooth either way, advanced or retarded, is too many degrees to run real good or better than O.E.M. setting.....now a few thousands, yes...but 1 tooth, nope! The attached pic is how I do it!

You moved the cam, 1 tooth on the crank gear......you actually did this?

Just so you know in case you call a shop about it....that is called a 5" tire because it goes on a 5" wheel....it's not called a 11" tire. Spend the cost it takes to have a shop do it....you'll be a lot happier in the end!

No....just stating that the dealership I work for is already getting 2022 product!

We are a Bad Boy, Ferris and Cub Cadet mower Dealership. 2022 Bad Boys are rolling in now, the other brands are sure to follow! Look up Bad Boy mowers online for pics and info!

Our 2022 Bad Boy Mowers are arriving as I type this! They are in Mid-Mo......come get one!

All I can do is SMH

BB had a 33hp Yamaha EFI engine and a few others, on some 2021 mowers

If I'm not mistaken, my boss told me some of the 2022 Bad Boys she ordered, have Hondas......since this B&S fiasco....she ordered Kaw, Kohler and Hondas....NO B&S engines! She also said BB dropped Yamaha engines, I think only because lack of availability!

Seems like I do recall, at the Kawasaki engine update "schools" that if a John Deere product had a Kaw engine, you had to go through JD instead of Kaw! JD must have a lot of Kaw products and a lot of $$$, to have a hold on Kaw like that!

I saw on TV news yesterday that JD might go on strike.......?

I saw a guy here in Mo, build a 3/4 million $ house and have decorative gravel and mulch put all over the yard because he did not want have to deal with the grass....funny thing is, it's the Dad, of the owner of the MOWER Dealership I work at......I mean, we sell mowers and service them for a...

This ^^^^^^^!

Wow....and I thought 3.5 months was bad!

Crazy, after waiting 3 1/2 months for a 28hp Twin directly from B&S.....finally got it yesterday. I wasn't sure if B&S was still breathing air but.....I guess they are! Oh wait....still waiting on some B&S E.F.I. cylinder heads.....2 1/2 months so far on those!

I have an infamous B&S 49T877 engine with 80 hrs that I'm parting out....heads, crankshaft, piston, rod, coil, carb, flywheel etc!

The Dealership I work for informed me today that they just ordered 98 New 2022 Bad Boy Mowers today.....good thing I like working on them Bad Boys!!....those along with the other 2 Brands of mowers we sell and handheld equip....looks like I will be busy this coming year!! The way I see it...

That's too much and too tall of grass for a rider.....much less a push mower!

I have seen them with, the right size key, just not tightened to spec.....not my tightened spec anyway!

If you bought it new, take it to the Dealership you bought it from, let them deal with it.....Bad Boys have a 2yr warranty

If you bought it from a dealership, take it back to them and let them look at it, that "should" be a warranty repair......I have repaired a few (under warranty) before they came apart! It is not so much a design flaw, as it is an assembly flaw!

Yes, it's the same story everywhere....we have been waiting several months on new mowers, engines, cylinder heads, belts..all have been paid for by the customer and or for warranty, and all are on backorder. It's the same in most all industries...I don't know what the answer is to remedy this...

I prefer carb cleaner over brake clean....carb cleaner smells a lot better, not that i'm a chemical sniffer or anything...lol I can verify that carb or brake clean will take any type wasp right out of the air but, NOT bumble bees.....those bees are TOUGH and will chase you down to sting...

School is in session.....haha!

This has turned into a fairly informative thread......

I don't know if it's 100% truth but....I heard today that Black and Decker / Stanley just bought MTD.
