I don't love my new ZT but I'm hoping since I've only done two cuts with it I'll grow to like it better with more practice. I have fences, curved paved driveways, area between trees (ie. forest), and one 15 degree ditch. All of which is taking getting used to using the ZT a bit harder. Right now...

Sounds like something other than northern ON/QC are in order. I would head east and cross the border into the US either before QC or south of Montreal (through Magog area). The ride from Montreal most of the way to Riviere-Du-Loup is horrible (I have done it twice this month) and you will lose...

The X300's that have the smaller 42" deck that the OP wants all come with the same K46 as the 200 series. The K46 is fine unless you have hills or try to pull heavy things.

The benefit to fab decks is that they're often thicker so they can take a beating if there's risk of hitting things and they "can" take longer to rust through. Problem is they don't flow air (and with that, grass clippings) as well as stamped. Fab decks often have corners where grass gets stuck...

I wear a Garmin watch to keep track of my metrics. The reason for using a phone mount is that I usually ride in places with spotty reception and my music often acts up because of it so I sometimes have to reset my streaming app and having to stop and pull my phone out of my camelpack is getting...

What’s a decent phone mount for a mtb handlebar for casual trail riding (no big jumps or drops)?

My old and well-used Sena 20S did the same thing a couple years ago and a friend with the same 20S replaced his battery with one from Amazon so I gave it a shot. Batt was about $20 and it was a 5min change and lasts longer than the oem one did when it was new. Like others said, give YT a shot to...

Powerstop coated rotors and low-dust ceramic pads from Partsavatar is what I did on my Ody. 2 winters now and zero corrosion. Good feel, very little dust. If you don't care about coated rotors and don't mind a bit more dust I'd go Bosch for both.

Give Maxima chain wax a try. It's still inexpensive and has zero fling. Goes on very light and doesn't hold dirt or build up like everything else I've used. It's now my go-to for street and dirt.

Send me a PM if interested, but I have an older Samsung phone with the BMW motoscan app on it that might work for you. (battery is old and doesn't hold a charge long enough for using it as a dedicated smartphone but works fine enough for the app)

I just went through this a couple weeks ago after doing a lot of research. Do you have any hills and if so how large? (hills will be the biggest deciding factor in determining what you need to buy). Is the area mostly wide open or are there tons of obstacles to mow around? Do you care how fast...

First cut using a zero turn and forgot about the rollbar behind that sticks out wider than the rider. Heat pump is elevated and at shoulder height. It was actually the plastic handles that adjust the rollbar that stick out a couple inches further that caught it. Collection of misfortunes.

I did spray it with my Shout/Water mixture that I use for cleaning my dirtbikes (also worked well a couple weeks back finding a mower tire leak) and it didn't show any bubbles. Some digging found a special HVAC spray to use but hopefully my mixture was good enough. I did pull that external rib...

Heat Pump got hit by a mower. Some fins got squished but the piping appears to be ok. No smells or hissing sound so hopefully it’s not leaking.

A chainsaw is one of those buy-once-cry-once items. A handful of them will be fine but the majority of these cheaper routes work well for a few uses then give the owners so much issues they end up on marketplace or yardsales. I'm speaking from experience on this one.

Drain and fill is actually quite easy to do yourself. Raise it and level it. Drain it, there's a hole on top accessible under the airbox area to refill until oil comes out of the level hole. Run it through gears and repeat (or just drive it until you have time to do it again and repeat). After...

Very sorry for your loss. It's very tough to lose such a great family member.

Dealer also needed for warranty work. I had the dealer inspect a random ABS light issue I was having in the Fall and they couldn't find a problem. The following Spring the issue became permanent and a ABS pump/thingy was found to be faulty and bike's warranty ended over the Winter. The fix was...

Agreed. Bought a rather expensive bike years ago and when I ordered a part at the dealer 5mins away the parts/service guy told me one price when I ordered it then tripled the price when it arrived (said an item came as a 3-piece package then only 1 item showed up and he tried to make me pay 3x...

I'll be in the East coast in a couple weeks and plenty of them down there. That's ok, as long as there's gas I can run on regular just fine since I'm just touring.
