If you watch Chickanic, Honda has basically been sued out of the walk-behind mower business.

If you read down in the article, it sounds likely that parts won't dry up.

There's many Honda clones out there, and reliable, low cost parts are readily available for nearly every engine, but I'm sure the OEM will be available for a long time. Frame parts might be a different story. Just have to get inventive.

They're mostly made out of Chineseum, last you long time!


Seriously, much of Honda's power equipment uses the GCV motor as opposed to the GX line. They're overhead cam motors and run smoother than their GX overhead valve motors. I agree, most parts should be available for a long time. The equipment parts themselves, who knows?

Honda should make and sell a build-it-yourself mower kit.
