I have been looking for a finish mower for the back of my BX 2360. I like the way they mow blowing out the back. Found some decent looking used ones but the new ones seemed priced too high when you do see them. Looked again this morning and saw a FRD 1660 listed as used very little, and it looked like it close by. Called the guy and took off with the trailer. No dealer around here has any and say 90 days out.
This one has shinny paint, next to no run time and even has the owners manual for $ 1480.00. I usally dont get good deals so i am stoked. I know i suck.

I just paid $1800 for that exact mower. It was new in 2018. 5 year gearbox warranty.
Nice find!

I replaced the gearbox oil and greased it real good and have been mowing with it all day. I really like the way it followes the ground and discharges all along the back. I raised it up from where it was set, closer to 3.5, and got along fine. My BX 2360 pulls it without complaining, even in places where i shouldn't been.

I mowed for years with a finish mower, I like you liked how it followed contours in the yard. I have since moved to a z turn mower. If I didn’t have 46 trees to mow around in an acre and a half, I’d still be mowing with it. It did a better job and the tractor doesn’t beat me to death like the z turn. Just my 2 cents.
