Sounds like a great deal. Several hundred cheaper then EA has them for. At 919 pounds it ought to do the job. I know of another poster who bought one, he has a landscaping company and recently used the tiller to reshape a football field. He's very impressed with his tiller.
Happy gardening.

I have had the YJR074 now for several years. You will love it, especially the weight and being able to set the tail gate to level as you go. Its built like a tank. One thing - after running a while, especially in rough ground,go back and re-check all the bolts on the unit - something I do each spring before use. None have ever come loose, but might need an 8th to quarter turn. You will also like the fact the the outside bearing opposite the gear drive is an oil bath type, not a bushing as on the KK units. I probably have put over 500 hours on mine with zero problems.
One last tip is to be sure to set your top link correctly per the operators manual- it makes a huge difference in the smooth operation.

I recently purchased the YJR74 from Langlinais Tractor in Abbeville, LA. They told me this is a Korean made tiller. It is very heavy duty and I really like the job it does. I paid about $2500 for mine picked up at the dealer. Actually, I traded a BushHog branded tiller plus $1500 for the YJR74.
Here is a link to the thread I started on it. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/304593-my-new-ansung-yjr74-tiller.html
