Good buy or not

[bison]

I have to go look at it yet but I found this Belarus 925...105 hp,3 pt hitch
1993,only 740 org hrs.
Guy wants $4000

Seems like a good deal, compared to deere or ih prices for something similar. ive never even seen one of these in person, how hard is it to get parts? where are they made?

 

[bison]

Made in Russia.
They're good tractors
I have a 78 model 800 already for 25 years,getting parts is not a problem.
The 925 is basicly the same as the 800 but has front assist and a turbo.Most parts will interchange between the 2.

You are familiar with them so you probably know if it's worth it or not. I have only seen the old 4wd ones with the bench seats.

That's 41 hr/yr. He didn't use it much. Since you are familiar with the Belarus brand and can get parts the only thing to stop you from buying would be if the current owner had something negative to say about it.

I'd ask him why he's selling it? What he like about it? What he dislikes about it? What maintenance/repairs has he done? Did he purchase it new? Then decide.

Guy's,it a steal of a deal. :agreed:
2 dealers say its worth 10 to 16 grand.
Seller is a JD man,he bought some adjoining land 3 years ago ,the tractor came with the land and it ain't used but a few hrs a yr to pull a rake.
He wasn't advertizing it,i got a tip he had it sitting in a quonset.
He told me it works fine but he wants a deere.
He tried to trade it off on a deere,dealer told him he didn't want Russian junk on the lot.:rolleyes5:
I didn't make him any wiser

I like Deere equipment myself, but at that price it doesn't have to last long to get your money out of it.

Good find Simon:thumbsup: Being familiar with it you are ahead of the game.

 

[JiFaire]

Buy it up, Simon ... that's a real steal, and it looks like it's in mint shape, too!

 

[bison]

I'll be on it as soon as the weather lets up in a month or so.It's a 300 ml trip one way.

 

[GM Guy]

[JiFaire]

Heck, that's darn-near-here... relatively speaking, of course.

Wish I could, now I'm seeding.

 

[bison]

Sweet deal,once in a lifetime for sure.
I looks like new,it runs like new,it's is very well maintained.not a scratch on it.:thumbsup:
There is even a brandnew air ride seat in it.
The only thing wrong with it is a short in a light some where(pops the fuse)
I can't believe the guy let it go for only 4 grand,i didn't have the nerve to talk the price down some more:nonod:
Now i need to go back and trailer it home.

 

[JiFaire]

Trailer? Heck, Simon, I thought you would be DRIVING it home!

Nice score, pal!
