What are you going to replace your Super with,I looked at one and what a tank.

I like the Scag, and Gravely for normal conditions but I do not cut normal conditions so the pig may be better for me.

I did not realize the X one was way more light duty than a Super.

Hustler needs a tweener. One between the X-One and the SuperZ.

I'm holding off this season for sure.

The longer I wait, the more time it gives Kohler to EFI their Big Blocks!

I was surprised at how they lightned the chasses up on the X0ne, they do not make a 72 in it.

How good and powerful are the BB Kohlers?

You know on your XR7 you can open the side discharge area up and make it work better? the deck is workable?

My deck is too Frankensteined up with the free-flow triangle baffle fix and my hydros are too unreliable for me to do anything except nurse it along another year. If I had a smooth, one piece rear baffled XR-7 and more reliable hydros, I'd think about modifying the front baffles to add a gradually larger distance from the center chamber out towards the discharge.
