I'll send you some picks after, the first of the year of my striper. For the question how I like my 717, it's a good machine. Personally I've had no problems, but at the same time I will be going with Scag for my riders going forward. The reason why there are some added benefits to the Scag. (hyro pumps, spindles, and the major, several different choices of engines for each machine.) Not to mention they not as expensive even though JD would say your paying for quality your paying for the name and color. But, I will again say my I have had no problems with my 717.
