I want to share info on this model. It's an electric start model that I bout as gift for my sweetheart. What I didn't realize was that this model has no throttle control. Yep. You start it cold and it goes right to full engine speed. I had no idea that Honda would build ANY machine without a...

I'm having issues suspicions with the Exmark and other brands that use plastic gas tank. Specifically, my Exmark is an '07 and lately I've been having issues with gasoline flow to the carburetor. I modified my fuel system by changing the fuel line and adding tees along with shut-off valves and a...

As far as I ahve been able to determine, Gravely and Bad Boy are the only manufacturers using the new Yamaha engines. I would like to know if these engines are dependable and if owners are satisfied with them.

Gravely has a few commercial grade mowers with the new Yamaha fuel injected engines. My 82 year old uncle wants me to go with him to look at these mowers. Personally, I have no experience with Gravely. My history is with Exmark and have been generally satisfied with Exmark, especially my dealer...

I've tried everything I know to rotate this pic but can't fix it. Anyway, this exhaust setup sounds fantabulous! Along with a couple of other mods to the intake, the engine now runs cleaner and stronger. I have two videos with very good audio of the development of this exhaust. One with a long...
