Alibaba. Cycletreads and northern accessories can do them, apparently.

Ad would be clearer if they suggested one upgrade to some Shinkos.

Notable for not mentioning motor rebuild or any check whatever on carb jetting, nearly 7K asking price.

Doesn't even need to be steep hill. Mate with a landscaping business in Perth has just bought a couple, I gave him(as did many others) some shit for it but he reckons they have paid for themselves in the couple of months by speeding up material placement on difficult (not steep) sites.

Certainly would be minimising a few risks under the new H&S legislation

Shirley that is a miss print.

Pick a winner from those? I'm not sure if I could.

Maybe just the sheer audacity of asking 30k for what would be a 3k import.

It isn't a misprint, and don't call me Shirley.

I thought for a moment it may have been a first model Eliminator - but alas no. It's something else - I should check - maybe this was a limited edition model to test the Eliminator market fully justifying the horrid price.
