I can clearly see them now. The other pictures did not have them on the deere site. Yes I would love to put them on my current Z950. Now I want one.

I'm calling the my dealer to get the ball rolling tomorrow. First to see of its possible, and when I could expect to get them. I want it bad for next spring. In 2 seasons I'm sick of the rough ride. I feel like a bottle of pop all shook up and ready to explode.

Knowing Deere, I'm betting a set will run at least $400 and probably more like $500 or a bit more, and that won't include the wheels/tires. I am curious as to how wel they'll hold up and how much they'll improve the ride. Also, it'll require a whole new learning curve to become used to how much dipping and scalping they'll cause/allow, and when that will happen.

Th flex forks and suspension seat should make it ride at least as well as anything else currently on the market.

When do you think we can purchase these new 900 models? You think we will seem them in showrooms by December since they have them listed on the web site? Keep us posted on the availablity of the flex forks if you can order them. Hopefully we dont get any scalping from them.

I'm hoping not either. I'm hoping they will be stiff enough not have that happen but give good cusion. I can see eBay being flooded with old deere forks. I'll let everyone know tomorrow. I have to get a throttle cable anyways

If they work well (and will fit) I am very interested in them. Anything to soften the ride

would love to have for my 757`s! One of them is a 06 has cast forks on it! keep breaking forks. Took old ones in to locally machine shop and had the shaft on the fork replaced with harded steel shafts. Had to swith bearing but works great. Was think of looking in to Husters flex fork and machine them to fix my mower. hope new deere flex fork will fit!

Hate to say this but I like the the old Quik Trak better than the new Wright. I see JD still has the old version on there website not sure if its still available along with the new model.
