Excellent condition, extremely well maintained. Fresh tune up, brand new PTO cable, brand new Belt, newer battery, no rust, no dents, handles incredibly. ALSO: Mulch cover and three extra sets of freshly sharpened blades. YES: you can ride it, in fact I insist. IMPORTANT: Don't try to negotiate online; it will just get deleted. I'm not set up on digital currency; I require cash payment. YOU: are responsible for picking it up & transporting it once you have purchased the mower. If you have any real or pertinent questions, feel free to ask.
