I would use the sch bar (not roller) sickle, just put one on my 15' N5 head, haven't used it yet, but it looks better, and moves/installs easier than the neighbor's crary sickle. One thing I like is that you can move the sickle back and forth easily by hand when installed properly. The thing that is nicest with the sch is that there are no adjustments on the sickle hold downs to try to get just right. Got my sch sickle from Shoup parts.

We have the SCH roller sickle. It is great, and while it is expensive, the upgrade to the pro drive from SCH is well worth the time and money. All that extra yanking around driving the sickle is gone now. Anybody looking for a wobble drive for a 8000 series flex head? I have an extra now.

If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done!

We put a SCH on our platform a couple years ago and really like it.

SCH is the only one I'd buy.
