David P, in only 8 years of owning a MF65, I can say that I have seen a drive coupling broken. To do it, you put a novice clutch user on the seat, have it in low reverse with the A4-203 at about 900 RPM, and while she is afraid to let off the brakes (both of them) on a very slight grade (that levels off within 10') she then pops the clutch.
The good news is that it offered the opportunity to get into the 65 to do some other much needed work, like rebuilding the hydraulics. The other good news is that she later greatly improved clutch techique on our other red tractor: the lil' old worn out (not enough power to destroy itself) SA.
