Mike,
I am not a expert on these have only owned 4 of them. All of them have had this shroud around the fan. I would assume it is a guard as much as anything.
Yea its all stock. Just not Cub Yellow
Thanks for taking a look at my project. Not sure how you copied out one picture? Nice move!
PS I did not touch the 147 today. Lots of seat time on the 127 and the 86 too.
Regards,
Chris
