I have run a Kuhn 9' discbine for 5 yr & don't think I'll ever go back to a sickle machine. I bought mine used for 2500 & the only repairs {other than knives} has been 2 pto shafts the first year. Solved that with a shaft off a 900 new holland chopper. I bought it to cut canary grass that when it is standing is around 5' tall & when it starts to fall down is 1 big tangled mess. I can cut this stuff at 6 mph all day & never plug up. When I cut alfalfa I can usually do first crop at 7mph & 2nd & later crops are in road gear if the field is big & smooth enough. Another thing to consider is if you have hay that goes down flat you can cut it one way & get it all picked up while going at almost road speed.
