Just keep that stuff up there. I don't want any more snow! Getting the bicycles ready for the summer. A funny guy! My wife used HS520 for the first time last Thursday and she loved it. We are getting some more this Thur and hopefully it will be mostly rain. Just bought an Electra Cruiser bike for my wife and hopefully she likes the simplicity. This snow thing is not over for people in ND and Canada. I would be biking to work by now but very late this year.

We are expecting 12"+ of snow starting Wed night and finishing on Thur afternoon. Where is Spring? Hopefully this is it!

One of the local repair shops mentioned about the high costs of replacing cables on Honda lawnmower. The cables seems to be a frequent problem for these mowers, not sure why. Does anybody know if this is true? Robert Coats provided some costs for transmission parts, but make sure you take into account of the labor costs for the repairs too.
It is costly because you have to take a bit of parts off to get to the cable. It is not the cost of the cable but rather the labor to replace it. I seen a few youtube videos and the job was a bit tricky and time consuming. I agree that belt drive is more than good enough and hydro is too much. 30CC increase on HRX217 is noticeably better than 160CC on HRR216 models.

Just get the one without the hydrostatic transmission model (HRX217KVA) if hydro reliability is a question.
