    I joined the "Super Club"!!

    I see recommendations for Kohler Commands and Vanguards but not Honda. The folks at repowerspecialists.com who sell all makes at similar margins recommend the Honda GX690 when looking for reliability and longevity. According to them the Honda is made to operate at higher temps and in hot...

    Jim, Jeremiah, Harry, Thanks for the advice. Talked to the owner and was told the engine wasn't rebuilt because the previous owner did it and then stored it. Starter/generator hadn't been gone through because, "it just runs too good". I believe that it was disassembled, cleaned and painted...

    I need some advice from the experts. I'm still looking for a 149 and found one that is "restored". What should I expect to have been done mechanically and how do I tell if it has been done right? What questions do I ask the seller to ascertain exactly what quality of work went into the resto...

    I really appreciate the feedback and advice. From what I've read, it seems like especially with the balancing kit from Kirks that a 14hp and maybe even a 16hp would work for me. The info on the 1650 explains a lot. Harry I looked at the picture in your profile. Your tractor is beautiful and...

    Frank I haven't ruled out the higher hp's, just wondering if I should. Quieter doesn't matter to me and smoother doesn't matter that much either as long as it isn't vibrating to pieces. I'm wondering if what I mentioned in the other post that I had been told is true. Maybe my 1650 wasn't set...

    Have owned a few Cubs in the distant past. Currently have a non running 127. I'm wanting to put together or find a fully restored tractor. This is not a WTB as I need advice before I get serious about the search. I have owned a 1650 in the past and it wanted to vibrate everything loose every...
