Well I'm totally happy with my Z740R that I purchased in 2019. It has been rock solid and cuts nice. I'm not a commercial grass cutter but I do have several yards and it serves my needs. They have jumped in price since I bought mine. Nice job Brent 👍
@@WesternEquipment I actually bought it because of your video Brent! You did a video when they first came out and I was so impressed I went and bought one. Paid 8k for it after some negotiations and it has been great. Thanks for all you do
Why is it that JD adversities the 720e with a8 Gal (32 litre) gas tank, meanwhile, I have squeed 10.5 gal (40 litres) into it at the pump! On multiple occasions, even using Jerry cans to be sure the gas stations weren't shorting me... Makes absolutely no sense
Question! On the z7 i have noticed some have cutouts for front lights and others dont? This is across all model years and trim levels for the 7 series. Do you know why? I have noticed a pattern though- all models with front cutouts for the lights have black caster wheel caps,? Just curious.
In the process of evaluating buying a zero turn JD mower. Your videos are EXCELLENT and very helpful in the evaluation! Thank You for all your efforts!!!!!
Prices on Deere are getting to high, u can buy other brands that are just as good. Most commercials have the same brand transmissions and engines the only thing that is different is decks frame and the color.
Nice video my friend the only problem I've had with JD is blade clutches all of my machines have had clutch problems within 250 or 350 hrs the 955m 920m and two 960m /s why John Deere nobody else has that problem l watch a lot of TH-cam and nobody has this problem my dealer thinks I'm the only one with this problem what about t??? Thanks Harry Erhart Erhart Landscaping
Well, I would definitely agree that this is not a common issue. We do not see many blade clutches have issues in our area, but maybe there are others out there that are having this problem too. Anybody want to chime in?
@@WesternEquipment thanks hope someone will chime in it's getting expensive 500 for a clutch 200 labor and the dealership is 100 miles away 😧😧 thanks Brent your a great friend 👍
Unfortunately, there is not a home maintenance kit for the Z740R. You have to buy the oil filter, oil, air filter, fuel filter, and spark plugs separate.
That is still to be determined. Deere has been having issues with engine availability from Kohler so that is why the Z915E has not been orderable for quite some time now.
@@WesternEquipment The Kohler on my 2015 Z915B has been ok, after 500 hours (property mower) I have had to replace the coil packs (ignition modules), but that's it. The valves can be a little noisy. That said, for the money (7250 OTD) I paid back in 2016 its been a good machine.

Glad to hear you are still enjoying it! I remember when you told me you were getting it. Thanks for your continued support!

You could have saved me 9 minutes of my life if you would have started with price
Z970R 7 years strong

Hi, could you do me a favor and look up what maintenance kit number a John Deere z740r takes. Thanks
Unfortunately, there is not a home maintenance kit for the Z740R. You have to buy the oil filter, oil, air filter, fuel filter, and spark plugs separate.
@@WesternEquipment ok thanks for checking though. I kinda figured that because I searched all over and couldn’t find one online
Can y’all do a video of the John Deere Z997R
Can you get tweels on the z7 series mowers?
Breaks????? Maybe Brakes 😂
Typo! Nice catch haha!
More important than mph speed is can you change the trans axle oil ❓in any of these models ❓❓❓
Yes, I have actually done a video on our other channel 247Parts, showing how this is done on the Z9.
Tanks, good info
Brake...not break..😂
Glad i bought my 2022 z930m last year at 12k
Yes, with the way prices are headed I think you made a good choice!
So will a z760r (27hp) out perform the z920m (23.5hp)
This is a good question and I hope I get the chance to put these two mowers side by side and test this out. Stay tuned!
Thanks for the response, im leaning toward the z760r
👍👍
So the new Z915E comes with a Kawasaki now?
That is still to be determined. Deere has been having issues with engine availability from Kohler so that is why the Z915E has not been orderable for quite some time now.
