Speaking of the latter and part replacement, my Honda HRU196 heritage has wornout wheels, catchers and height adjusters as they do. I always buy Honda mowers because they start first time and the engines go for ever. I make my own repairs to the bits that wear to save money and keep them going.

I was in the mower shop the other week and asked out of interest what a geunine Honda height adjuster cost. $9 for the notched part that attaches to the mower, $11 for a new handle with a new rubber grip.

I couldn't get my money out quick enough, and to think of all the time I have wasted making my own in the shed.
