I had a Honda walk behind, rear bagger mower that I used for 10 years. The only issue was occaisional water in the carb float bowl since it sat outside. Easily cleaned out. I gave it away last fall because I didn't want to move it, it was still cutting great, as long as you kept the blade sharp, or new.

I bougtht a new mower this year, moving up several notches on the mower scale since I'm mowing about 4 acres now. A Deere Z-rak 757 zero turn radius mower. It's unbelievable.

Rick, what's that hopper on your Ransome?
