Too far for me, but I bet there is a lawn boy guy around you that will snap it up in no time. Good luck with the John Deere! Lol.

i been looking for a lawn boy guy but haven't found any other then on here and my JD is like new and i love it heres pics of it to i love this mower i wouldn't trade it for 20 lawn boy 2 cycles but then again just my opinion

Good looking mower glad you like it that's the most important thing! Have a good one!

 

[Two-Stroke]

There have been several threads about two-stroke vs four-stroke and you can guess where I come down on that issue. :laughing:

Somebody mentioned cutting 1' tall grass. The ultimate mower for that kind of job is a Suzuki-powered Toro (two-stroke). I think it's actually overpowered for mowing "lawns". I use it as a cross between a field mower and a regular lawn mower.

:wink:

well in the defense of the duraforce 2 stroke, they were jetted too small (emission standards) making them bog like crazy in thick grass because they run too lean. The F series lawnboys have an air adjustment on them and they will dust a 4 stroke when adjusted properly. Nothing but a two stroke lawn boy will be touching my lawn. If you ever get a chance to jump on an f series lawn boy do it because you will not want to mow with anything else after using it!

i have a f series and getting a d 433 series to rebuild wouldn't use anything else
:thumbsup::laughing::biggrin:

Scott47429, I agree with you, i have a John Deere 14 sb and I love it. Been mowing faithfully with it for over 12 years. Had to replace the back wheels since the tread was wearing thin, but other than that it's needed nothing.

 

[turfboy1997]

man you are right about that toro 21! they are the strongest 2 stroke to date! the duraforce and m were supposed to copy that exact engine but both fell short of the original because of emission standards.

A Lawn Boy isn't the mower for someone that wants to do nothing more than pull a rope, and cut grass.
However, if you enjoy working on small engines as a hobby, like getting all kinds of looks as you mow your lawn (and a great cut they produce), and appreciate the craftsmanship and quality of days gone by, you can't find a better product. For the guys here still using the old Lawnboys, how many other guys on your street, or neighborhood still are?

To this day i know people that hate lawn boys! and always will and swear by a different brand! i am just telling you the facts that lawn boys are the lightest (excluding the M series) easiest to work on mowers and if they are dialed in and have over 95 to 100 lbs of compression they will dust a 4 stroke because there is more RPMs. I think that the only place that 4 stroke beats the 2 is in huge grass and wet huge grass. But i plan on keeping up with my grass because i love to mow now because i have so many lawn boys to choose from. You would strain some part of your anatomy trying to lift that john deere somewhere. besides this is the lawn boy forum anyway so your not changing my mind!
