Just got the new 2601 and I had my son in law do the first mowing as I had other chores. About 2 hours later he came back saying "that's the worst riding tractor I've ever been on". Later I had a chance to finally use it. Wow was it a rough ride. However i had been through this on my old B2410...

Today I'm running the tractor, mowing tree rows. If you can't use the cruise control it is just plain miserable to run that foot control. I do a lot of fabricating and can see this is all based on lever length. I will fix this by fabbing a new pedal assy and longer arm that comes up from under...

Just got ours today. For mowing with the mid mount mower, the rear tires had to much air and just beat the heck out of me. They came with almost 50# of air. After dropping them to about 32 it doesn't beat me up so badly. I ran my old B2410 at about 30#.

Unlike my B2410 I had, the new B2601 I just got needs a lot of pedal pressure to run this tractor. Since my wife runs it the most and she isn't very big, is there a way to reduce the amount of foot pressure needed to operate this new tractor? She is not real happy today.
