Selling my running Snapper 214X4PR-2 Wisconsin Robin 2 cycle mower - North Texas

[elandem]

I'm trying to divorce myself from my emotional attachment to this mower. I've had it since 1990 and have used it every season on my lawn. But, it's time to let it go. I just want it to go to a good home. It's been so good to me. It always starts and runs. It has a couple of deck dings and I have replace parts as necessary that have worn out (belts, springs, blades, drive mechanisms, etc.). I just used it this morning. If anyone in the North Texas area is looking for one of these fine machines, I'll let it go for $150. Lemma know who is interested.

Those are the ones I used to drool over back in the day. We had an old craftsman. All the lawn crews and such ran Snappers.

Hope you are not getting rid of it to get a new Honda or other inferior mower. You will kick youself trust me. My dad got rid of his aluminum deck Toro SR for a new Honda. Regretted it since day one. LOL

As you know, that is or was their HD line or what is called today "commercial grade". Fine mower there sir.

Look, I’m a snapper fan and even have a snapper pro now. I just let go of my 93 38” rider and , honestly it was hard to do. I gave it away still running and 107 people clambered to my door to get it. It’s old technology and lack of ability to mow my tttf at 4+ inches helped to let it go I still use my JD 14sb from 1987 and it does just fine. Why part with it? But it’s time I got an early 2000,s super recycler that helped me let old stuff go. It’s ok brother, it’s ok to move on.

I know how you feel. I just let go of a Snapper V21 that's been in the family since 1972. At 35+ yrs, the 2nd Briggs engine finally let go. I believe I let it run low on oil. Anyway, it was time to move on. Replaced it with a Honda HRR216VKA, we'll see how long that one goes. It gets limited use as our 1999 Murray Widebody (17hp Twin II Briggs) mows my yard most of the time. The Murray has been a brute, its cared for up to 3 yards and the neighborhood entrance some years.

Hi, my name is Tyler, I am aware that it has been some time since you have posted any snappers for sale with a Wisconsin Robin engine but I have been looking for a couple years now for one, and finally thought I would reach out to people with old posts of at least having this machine or selling one in the past, hoping that somebody will be willing to part with one of theirs if they still have any. Ha ha. Anyways, I want either a full original Snapper 21 inch walk behind mower with either the Wisconsin Robyn 125V which is the two cycle version or the Wisconsin Robyn 185V which is the 5 hp four cycle version. I am not looking for the 145V I believe those are the three that Snapper produced with the Wisconsin Robyn engine and the only ones produced. If you have any information on where I could find one of these or even just the Wisconsin Robyn engine I would be very much appreciative and thankful. I am up to just straight buying one or I also have another Snapper, which was originally bought by my grandpa that has been treated extremely well in garage kept that I’d be willing to trade for one of these mowers that I’ve been looking for and pay a difference if need be I appreciate you taking the time to read this message and again I apologize for this long random email out of the blue. I hope you have a great rest of your week I hope to take care.
Tyler

Get an old Snapper Commercial. Install a 10 ft lb Briggs engine on it. Never look back. Or a new Kawi FJ180V. Actually Snapper made one with the Kawi FJ180V on it. Got one in the garage. Freakin' tank of a mower. I'll never sell it..........
