r/HondaMowers

It was a bundle with these I know ones a hr17 unsure of the big Honda and a hayter harrier 56 electric start but that’s irreverent for this group I paid £120 for all of them the hr17 will be a restoration project when I’m finished with my current atco midget project as for the big Honda I’m unsure and the hayter is showing the signs of being fine the tank was clean and dry the Honda tanks are dirty and have old fuel in them the bigger Honda says 1993 on the stamp I have put some photos below. I also use a 2006 Honda hrx476 for work as I do my own garden services business thanks for the read.

My Honda hrn216 makes this weird ticking sound , this only happened after I tipped it on its side to check the blades, the mounting bolts and blade bolts/blade adapter are not lose and I just did a valve adjustment on it. Looking for any recommendations or insight

After much consideration, I’m thinking of replacing my Honda HRN 216 VKA with a HRX 217 because people tell me that it’s a better lawnmower. I have a pretty small yard but I want something that’s gonna last and I figured that the longer I wait, the less likely I’ll be able to find one in good condition. But everything I find is outrageously expensive. What should I pay for one in good condition? And y’all think that this Facebook marketplace listing is too much?

Just picked up this old Honda HRC216K1 I believe the other day, everything works beautifully but the engine sound seems a little odd to me. The "howling" makes me think like there is no oil (there was oil and I changed fresh oil). Or is it normal for this era engine?

Thanks all.

I recently picked up this older Honda lawn mower that’s non self propelled and I’m wondering if I should replace my newer Honda with it? Never had any problems with the newer hrn216 but on terms of longevity, which one is better/more well made? If Honda isn’t making gas lawn mowers anymore. I want something that’s gonna last forever.

And I actually heard the self propelled feature goes out fastest. Thanks!

Hi there! New homeowner soon looking to get a mower.

Been thinking between gas and electric mowers and browsing marketplace for deals.

Saw this HRX217 and I think a GVC190 engine pop up this morning for $175 but they said it has a bad transmission. Price seems decent and wanted to see what it would take to fix the transmission. Thoughts? Thanks!

Can someone identify which model this mower is? The model number and serial number on the mower are unreadable. The current blade setup seems wrong to me and I'm thinking of replacing them but not sure which to get.

P/S. Just picked this up on Craiglist, everything runs nicely.

Thanks all.

My Honda lawn mower won’t turn off after I release the bar. I see this wire is cut. Is this the Killswitch or something else ? I haven’t taken it apart yet. I just wanted to ask first.
