I just pick one of these little jewels up a couple days ago.! This is a commercial mower btw... Idk how old mine is but im guessing its 20 years at least.? And man it runs like new.! Starts right up, no smoke, both gas tanks still work, doesn't bog down in high glass and cuts excellent.! The body on yours is in a bit better shape then mine but im am very pleased with mine as well
I believe the first two numbers of the serial are the year produced if you’re curious. I just picked up a 07 54 inch with a Kawasaki and I’m super excited to try it out.
if it runs good, yes if you can test the mower out in grass thats a plus! To see if it has bogging issues. I traded this mower off. One of the best i have owned. Check hydro responsiveness good.
