Boy Spike, You little saying at the bottom of the page about your 646BH not being complete, is almost becoming my motto about my 4118. In december it will be 4 years since I drug the thing home on my trailer. I have had a rattle in the thing since I got it running and I haven't been able to find it. My younger brother was here overnight this week and I think we have found it.

Wish me luck!

Bill

Yes @Harry, the Hayban sickle bar mower is very much sought after! Not just by us, but other gt tractor enthusiasts. I have not seen one for sale yet around here.

Thank you for pointing it out! :cheers:

Found this as another example someone has on a simplicity tractor. He's selling it for $600, it's hydraulic. Looks to me more like hand made though

Don't know what it's from Harry, kinda is Cub yellow, but their front mount sickles drove in the center. It is definitely worth a look. :letmesee:

Looks like 20 to 22 inches wide. No idea what it's from but not something big.

We had a Bolens 2 wheeler about that size, but that was also a center mounted setup. Yellow paint was lighter as well, though that could have been faded...

I could certainly see this example being an easy conversion to side or boom mounted.
