    I(TM)m looking for parts for my Buck. I can(TM)t get parts anymore through the mechanics that work on it. They say it(TM)s too old. The part I(TM)m most interested in is the box on the handlebars that tells the machine to shift. I appreciate all the help I can get

    By Cassidy Keller (I am an Owner) on Jan 26, 2016

I have used on the farm and on joyrides and on hardcore badlands rides and NEVER have I had an issue. I have buried it in mud to the seat and drive out of it. ...

    If you have a chance to buy one DO IT AND YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT.

    By John L. Swindle (I am an Owner) on Aug 28, 2014

If you've ever owned a John Deere then, ...
