Hi,
Would like to hear all comments/opinions inreference to the L-B 10550 and the DuraForce 2 cycle 6.5 hp.
Thanks

Personally, I've never been fond of these machines. I think the wheel stagger is more of an annoyance than beneficial. The idea of this is to enable the user to mow closer to objects at the front of the machine than on the sides. I think the machine has a tendency to nosedive. As far as the engine goes, I'd rather have a four-stroker. That's just my opinion.

I see the only response was from me, which doesn't give you many opinions, but what did you decide?

Hi,
I saw it.....I bought it...I used it.......and I love it....great power.....doesn't smoke like the old ones. Easy Stride system is good, and I can go as fast as I want...happy with the purchase. Checked out some toro's and Honda's afterwards and found them heavy as anything(the ones I would have considered), and with my levels and having to move the machine down steps and down a gravel road....I like the lightness of my machine............
