I do love 4stroke simpleness.
DFB XR6, re Hondas sorry I can't agree.
More and more councils are buying them I notice over the years, Lawn Mowing Service guys are buying them.
My brother is a Honda motorcross devotee for 30 odd years on 5acres, obviously Johhny Deer ride on but Honda mowers.
My neighbours have sworn by them from years ago - I don't see any of them stopping unblocking the shute ever.
Quality product and damn reliable - I'm just a tight **** not to spend that much but I wish.
On another thing mowers, how does everyone like these full plastic rim/wheels ?

Agreed, i managed one iof the biggest Jims franchises in NSW in the 90's and used the Buffalo self drive on anything up to 25 jobs per day and the only time i had these issues was if trying to do too much at once or in first cuts which had been neglected and ideally would have been left to a push version if not for the terrain.
When i bought my own franchise here in SA in the mid 2000's i used a Buffalo push and a Briggs Quattro as they came with the purchase and it was noticeably harder work.
Personally i wouldnt give tuppence for a Briggs and only used it as a backup but things may have improved since then.
