I am curious about the new M-1 walk behind mower. What are the specs? Price? & how is the self propulson system operated? Im thinking about adding one to my equipment collection and my dealer doesnt know anything about it yet.

I have attached the spec sheet to this post, you can click on it and view all the detailed specs.
MSRP is $1,299.00, check with your dealer for your exact price.
The drive system is direct drive via a shaft off the engine, no belts, it is a 2 speed gear drive system, the speed selector is on the upper handlebar, you can see it in the picture I have put in this post.
These units are now shipping to warehouses and dealers.
Hope this helps.

Is Hustler using that two speed Honda system that jumps when you engage it in high gear rendering that gear useless in tight quarters and first gear to slow to be a usable gear for a guy using this mower to make a living. I sold My Honda with that drive two weeks after I bought it. If Hustler is using that same drive I would RUN from that mower and get the Honda with a Hydro!

This mower has nothing to do with Honda other than it is a Honda engine.
It is not a Honda drive system.

I am still wondering if this mower engages smoothly in top gear like a Honda hYDRO OR tOR/eXMARK 21".

From my experience it engages smooth in both hi and low.

Are these mowers out yet? The dealers in Washington state don't seem interested in selling this model.

These units are just now getting to dealers in the last few weeks.
They are available.
E-mail me and I will get a rep in contact with you in regards to getting pricing.
