Go Cart Lawn Mower by Yard Works- Speed Mowing

[GSBman]

All i wanna know is where to buy one of these things!!!

[MudRFunR]

@GSBman So far only Canada and UK have said they have seen one. Canadian Tire store sold them in the 80's but not sure about US?

[ismokewead420]

my kids would mow pot leafs into the yard...

[MudRFunR]

@ismokewead420 That's what it's made for, cuttin' grass!

[ismokewead420]

@MudRFunR lol nice

[MudRFunR]

@ismokewead420 Thanks, we like it!

[JuniorDragstarUK]

is there much point?



[MudRFunR]

@JuniorDragstarUK Kids like it. Anything to get them to do chores.

[yard1sale1dale]

@JuniorDragstarUK To make your neighbors jealous

[The88drunkredneak]

awesome I won't one

[MudRFunR]

@The88drunkredneak This one has become more of a GoCart than a mower.

[redneckkin4life]

they had one of those mowers on hunni i shrunk the kids. the little kid rigged it up with a remote control, now theres an idea for some real fun

[MudRFunR]

@redneckkin4life Now I'm gonna have to watch it honey I shrunk the kids again. Thanks for the info!

[SuperMrmatt123]

wooaaaa. i would by this and mow my lawn every day... and my neighbor's. lol that's awesome

[MudRFunR]

@SuperMrmatt123 It's great for small areas but gets boring on larger areas. It only has a 24" cut, like a push mower.

[MrPusseater]

your high

[pyroman675]

how fast can it go with out the deck engaged and do the tires have any grip on them

[MudRFunR]

@pyroman675 At 5:31 I stop the blades and drive around a bit. This is as fast as it goes. Not real quick. Rear tires are O.K but the fronts are getting bald in the center.

[pyroman675]

@MudRFunR uh, would u be able to put bigger tires on it. thats not that bad for speed, i would put a smaller pully on it and make it go 90

[MudRFunR]

@pyroman675 My next modification was to be bigger tires but then the blade height will be off. It is gear driven. Bigger tires will make it go a little faster.

[pyroman675]

@MudRFunR well if ya took the deck off(if its possible) but i thought it would have to be a belt drive cause the deck would have do be driven by the motor to. uh

[MudRFunR]

@pyroman675 It actually has both. It has a belt going to the blades and to the gearbox. From the gearbox to the axle is chain driven.

[pyroman675]

@MudRFunR uh. that sounds like a pain to fix then, what about belts can you get a belt(chain) anywere for that, or does it have to be a specail belt

[MudRFunR]

@pyroman675 New Video...I am going post a vid showing all the belts and whatever....Not sure when...I have some other vids to post first.

[pyroman675]

@MudRFunR okay then wont keep ya talking thanks for the answers

[MudRFunR]

@pyroman675 Sometimes a picture (video) is worth a thousand words.

[pyroman675]

@MudRFunR ya sometimes. i cant wait untill he gets the viedeo of the chains a belt drive stuff

[SuperSteeldrum]

where could i buy one

[MudRFunR]

@SuperSteeldrum At any Canadian Tire Store...25 years ago! But mine is for sale.

[abstarcan]

Okay, thanks MdRFunR. I await for what ever you can find out for me on a place for getting parts. I have tried every place I could up here, to no avail.

[bracketracer2000]

i'm 54 years old and never saw one of these. i'm impressed to say the least. you did an excellent job on the modifications.

[MudRFunR]

@bracketracer2000 Thanks! From comments that I have received it sounds like these mowers are found in Canada, UK and Germany.

[colbycous01]

oh man,, there wouldnt be a lawn safe in the nieghborhood if my kid had that. the steering does look better for a grownup. looks more compfy than my tractor too.

[MudRFunR]

@colbycous01

Actually, I modified the steering for shorter people. The original wheel was much higher before I put the knuckle in to lower it.

[colbycous01]

@MudRFunR hell, i thought you made it higher, not lower.

[MudRFunR]

@colbycous01

If you stop it at 0:17, you can see how the knuckle brings it down.

[colbycous01]

i cant see anything at 17, but i looked at your other vid of it and i saw how you modded it. you did a nice job. the wheel must have pointed at your face before you lowered it

[MudRFunR]

@colbycous01

I guess if you haven't seen the original steering you don't know what to look for.

[abstarcan]

@MudRFunR Hi, we have a lawnmower like this but having problems trying to get parts, can you tell us where we can get parts for it?

[MudRFunR]

@abstarcan The guy who I bought mine from got parts from a small shop near where I live. This shop has changed owners since then, so I'm not sure what it is called now. It's about a 45 minute drive for me but the next time I am out that way I will go talk to them and get a number for you if they can still get these parts.

[abstarcan]

@MudRFunR Okay, thanks MdRFunR. I await for what ever you can find out for me on a place for getting parts. I have tried every place I could up here, to no avail.

[canadaeast]

I have never see one before. I'd really like to own one.

Very Cool

[MudRFunR]

I wouldn't know where to find another one but I'm glad I found this one! Excellent for smaller areas.
