I'm looking at buying a Grasshopper 722D to replace my Kubota F1900.

You can see the whole deal online here if you're interested :

722D - SN - 5621358, 1076 hours, Year-2006
3461 61" deck
3452 50" deck, year 2007

Is there anyone here who has used both who could tell me how the 722D compares to my F1900 ?

What are the common or expensive faults that occur in a 722D that I should check for before purchase ?

It's priced at $NZ10,000 ($US7000). These machines are about $NZ35,000 new here so it looks like a bargain.

My intention is to mow my 2 acre orchard and start a commercial mowing business. There are many 2 acre blocks around here and mowing contractors are travelling 10 miles out here from the nearby city. So I think there might be a good opportunity here.

I should also ask how the Grasshopper would compare to a used Kubota F3060 (30HP model)
