May have a chance to get one locally. Wants $900 with the motor and table. If I can look at it and get him to come down a little, I may get it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowboyBob Report post Posted January 14, 2019 Some 227's have reverse,if you can see a pic it'll have a lever on the front rightside for reverse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted January 15, 2019 Yeah. $900.00 is high if it has no reverse. Normally, the model number will have an R with it if it has reverse. i.e. 227R or 227 R-1. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
