A friend of mine knew an older gentleman that was going to sell his mower as he just couldn't use it anymore. The Kohler was rebuilt in 2007 with full documentation and he kept records of everything. The hour meter shows 997hrs. He bought it in July of 1997 for $5,600.00. Amazingly the deal included brand new bearings,spindles,idler pulleys, 4 sets of 3 cutting blades, doubles of every belt on the thing, ignition switch, circuit breaker, oil filter, 3 air filters with pre filters, and the list goes on!!
It runs and operates as is!!!! I even cut some grass with it. lots' O FUN. The wife said I had not smiled that big in quite a while when I tested the Zero turn capabilities. That was fun!! (only do this on weeds or dirt as it will tear up sod)
It does have some issues of course but nothing critical or expensive. The gentleman maintained it well.
Having this machine in the stable will allow me to build up the Killer Kohler to go into the tired 129 and continue with the 149 refurbish.
I hope the 129 doesn't pee on it in the middle of the night.
Three Franklin's made the deal
