John Deere F525 + Free: clamshell

[gamorg02]

SOLD

I have a mid-90's john deere F525 mower with a kawasaki 17 hp engine. My grandparents had to move to an adult community so they offered it to me. I have since realized its a bit overkill for what I need and was seeing if there was any local interest in it. It had been gone through by the JD dealer out near them 18 months ago or so, but not sure exactly what was done. The thing runs pretty well, puff of black smoke on startup but thats it. Never had a problem with it not starting including the 2 times i used it this year as a snowblower. Comes with the 36" snowblower as pictured with tire chains. Also have the 48" stock deck and a full bagging system. have yet to hook up the bagging/mowing system so i assume its all there but not 100% sure. ~775 hours. Three wheel version for "0" degree turns. The seat has a couple rips on it that have tape on them and the rear plastic has a crack in it. I can get better pics later if anyone is interested. I was asking $1850 on CL which seemed fair as newer/lower mileage ones went for maybe $2300 with just the mower elsewhere in the country. I also have a little trailer I'd probably sell with it too if buyer was interested. $1200 obro.

just wondering if my price is just too out there? i'd be interested in opinions even if you're not all that interested in purchase. just curious

Any idea if the snow thrower attachment is universal? I have a 25 Hp Husvarna lawn tractor and that could be a nice addition to my machine.

i really doubt it without some fabrication as it hooks into the arms on the front, unless those are a universal design? heres a pic of it not attached (stock web photo, not mine):

no its separate i just didn't want to muddy the for sale waters. I live in franklin ma, work in hopkinton could meet you anytime there or see if one of the guys I work with could bring it up to the NH track if he's going this year?

i appreciate the offer but i think thats a bit lower than i'd want to go. The fact you'd travel 90m or so for $1000 makes me think my price isn't too far off since its open for negotiation.
