Great intro humor! Making it yours! For such short time on the N you're already adapted to its feel. You laid down quite a result in the basin where few could go. Impressive. 😀
Due to EPA restrictions, the carbureted Z model was discontinued, leaving only the N for the Kubota gas option, the most powerful engine in the lineup.
How much can you charge for this type of work do you charge by the acre or the length of the grass if anyone can give me a general idea it would be helpful
James, I also offer professional consultations to help business owners, or those thinking about starting a business, to get the most out of their investment
Yeah, it sure beats walking! It's faster, safer, more efficient, better quality cut...and of course, WAAAAAAY MORE FUN and the BA factor is through the roof!
Hey Bradley baby did you purchase that hat like that or did you modify it yourself? I keep getting sunburn while wearing a hat with suntan lotion. However, I have a hat like this but my hearing protection obviously does not work.
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 I used 7 gallons each tire of winter windshield washer fluid. Beet juice may be better, but not a DIY proposition. I checked and centered my valve lash Saturday. TDC was easy to find with a skewer in the spark plug hold, but getting the coil bracket off exposed the timeing marks anyway. My valve cover gasket was toast.
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 Yes, it does. At 100 hours of operation, so far, no flats on the tractor. My groom mower sports a stickly rope plug in side wall. My ballasted farm tractor has two sticky ropes and it is 40 years old.
The "only" difference is the engine. The P has a liquid cooled Kawasaki V Twin, a really good engine with 31 Horsepower...BUT the N is the top of the line Kubota 3 cylinder fuel injected engine with 33 HP. The Kubota is a purpose built engine for industrial use. You can also get the Z which is the same Kubota 3 cylinder but carbureted
Blue cord, I suppose as better question I should have asked is can YOU feel the difference of power between the 2? You have tons of first hand knowledge and the feel of it first hand
Wrong guess. For one, I'm NOT a mowing guy. I don't cut grass for a living. Cutting drain basins is only a small part of what I now do in this chapter of my life. In fact, I'm retired from the Army. By the time 9/11 occurred I already had 10 years in and I volunteered for operations against the terrorist cells inside of the Continental US using intel from the FBI and CIA. You probably didn't know that ever happened but it did. That's why I carry, because I've seen things and I know things. Bad things happen to good people and after my career I'm always ready. I've been asked many times to write a book about it. Maybe someday I will
One thing I have always done is never assume you know someone, and that comes with being in law enforcement now going for 25 years. Firstly I knew your background, and secondly I was correct in saying it’s your right to carry as stated in your constitution. The thing is you’re living in the states and for some reason you guys carry guns while doing everyday things, in Australia it takes a very long and comprehensive check system to allow anyone to obtain a firearms licence let alone a gun. If anyone is carrying a gun in public that’s not law enforcement you’re in big trouble. Anyway I respect what you’ve done in the past and enjoyed the video.
I'm glad to hear that you were former law enforcement but frankly I'm surprised that someone with your background would make an initial comment like that, especially considering your knowledge of my background. I don't talk much about it on my channel, but as a former Tier 3 Operator, I am highly trained in many areas. Everywhere I've lived, I am known by law enforcement as an asset. If things get really bad, they know they can quick call me, pick me up and I'll save them a lot of paperwork. Heck, I have a fighting position ready to go that looks down the dead end road that comes up to my house. Even though "it's my right", I'm also a part of a very small group of the US population that's an estimated .001% or One in every 350,000 Americans who have my level of training. I've more than earned that right. @@Spiderman50505
Were you also aware, my military career aside, that 2 very close friends and my cousin, a retired Air Force Fighter Pilot, in 2 unconnected homicides in different states, were all brutally murdered at their homes? Both of these tragedies are searchable on the internet. Mike Kitchen and Heidi Pratt were my good friends when I lived in Northern Maine and my cousin, Major Dennis Fink. Three senseless acts of brutal violence that could have been prevented. Before Mike and Heidi were killed, I was ready to put my sidearm away...that changed things for me
Fair enough. We’re from different countries and I respect your rights. I’m still in law enforcement and been in intelligence in another life. I’ve been across your country with work and won’t say much about that. Anyway I do enjoy your Ventrac videos. Stay safe

I'm a funny guy! This new machine is really great
We would love to know why you went with the N gas model ? Ray from Canada. Snow ventrac user
Due to EPA restrictions, the carbureted Z model was discontinued, leaving only the N for the Kubota gas option, the most powerful engine in the lineup.
0:25 HERESY! 😂 JK, Congrats on the new machine!
🤣 racing stripes or goofy graphics aren't for me, man

Back in my late 20’s I used to mow the banks at a hydro electric dam with a walk behind Gravely. That machine you have is awesome
Yeah, it sure beats walking! It's faster, safer, more efficient, better quality cut...and of course, WAAAAAAY MORE FUN and the BA factor is through the roof!
I assume you’re running the Tough Cut deck?
How do you like the chains?
BTW there are solid caster wheels available.
That's a good assumption!
Al Bladez check this Ventrax out! Blue Cord, very awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Much appreciated!
Nice work. I hope someday I can afford one of these. Absolutely amazing machine
Thanks. Ventrac just keeps getting better! Even my 4200 is an amazing machine and it's 18 years old!
hi handsome, beautiful video, ending musical is beautiful. ❤ God bless you. please don't forget to invest in crypto, XRP,XDC,XLM.
thanks
Wow great video. Love this stuff
Thanks, man! I love this stuff too!
Bradley, I can't imagine what mowed this before you took over. Great job and great video.
The previous guy had a Steiner but he moved his operation away and was no longer able to maintain this site
I'd have to loose the reverse beeper, it would be annoying all the day. 😊😊
I can turn that off when I want to

I made this one. I had my mom use her sewing machine for some parts as well
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 Thanks for letting me know. It looks awesome!
Good first mod to remove that belt ruiner. Will you ballast the tires?
I'll get to that soon!
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 I used 7 gallons each tire of winter windshield washer fluid. Beet juice may be better, but not a DIY proposition. I checked and centered my valve lash Saturday.

@@rooster3019 when you add ballast like that, it's does preclude you from using a tire sealant
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 Yes, it does. At 100 hours of operation, so far, no flats on the tractor. My groom mower sports a stickly rope plug in side wall. My ballasted farm tractor has two sticky ropes and it is 40 years old.
I wish we had a local dealer. My closest dealer is over 100 miles away.
I hear you. When I lived in Northern Maine, the closest dealer was many hours away
I'm waiting for an air conditioned cab.
I hear you! These days I like being comfortable as often as possible!
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 Aaron needs to work on this.

What a difference. I noticed you had chains on your outside is that new
I got the chains last year. They make a big difference!
how much does the tire chain kit help
Those chains are AGGRESSIVE, with cleats welded onto each link. They help quite a bit
curious how high/low you set your cutter?
I think I did a video about that. I keep it pretty high so I don't hit as much, thinking about the wildlife too.
Is the N substantially better than the P?
The "only" difference is the engine. The P has a liquid cooled Kawasaki V Twin, a really good engine with 31 Horsepower...BUT the N is the top of the line Kubota 3 cylinder fuel injected engine with 33 HP. The Kubota is a purpose built engine for industrial use. You can also get the Z which is the same Kubota 3 cylinder but carbureted

@@beauhaworth9060 I would always recommend the Kubota 3 cylinder, whether the Z or the N
Why are you carrying a gun as a mowing guy?. Let me guess it’s your right?

I’m gonna put the confederate flag on mine. And I don’t think I’m sorry about it lol. But man that BCPC sticker looks beautiful.❤
Thanks, Dawson! I love my logo!
@@bluecordprecisiongrading2504 no problem, Brad! I like it too!
Takes the harmless decals off.. but leaves the annoying reverse beeper on 🤣🤣
He will switch that circuit, you can bet on it.
I need the backup alarm for liability purposes. The backup alarm and horn are now on the same circuit
