Four sizes, from 36 to 61

The 36-inch Revolt runs a Kawasaki FX691V at 22 hp, with a 5-gallon tank and a Hydro-Gear 3100 10cc transaxle. It weighs 805 lb. The 48 steps up to a Kawasaki FX730V at 23.5 hp, an 8-gallon tank and a Hydro-Gear 3400 12cc transaxle. It weighs 930 lb. The 36 and 48 have one engine each. The 54 and 61 are where you get a choice.

The 54 and 61 share three engine choices. There's a Kawasaki FX850V at 27 hp, a Kawasaki FX781V EVO EFI at 31 hp and a Vanguard EFI at 28 hp. The 54 weighs 980 lb, and the 61 weighs 1,040 lb. Each size runs up to 9 mph and cuts from 2 to 5 inches on a 7-gauge solid steel deck.

Why stand up to mow

On a stand-on, you're on your feet on an adjustable rubber suspension riding platform. Stepping off to move a hose or pick up a branch takes a second. That's handy on a lot with a lot of trimming and stops. It's handy on your own place, too.

The 36 is the narrow one. With the chute up, it's 38.5 inches wide, and 50.5 with the chute down. The 61 runs 63.5 inches chute up and 75.5 chute down. Measure your narrowest gate and match the deck to it. Front tires are 13x6.5-6 smooth on all four.

Our shops are busiest in spring, when the grass turns green and mowers come in with dead batteries and worn belts. If you run a Revolt hard, have the blades and belts checked before then.

What's the narrowest Bad Boy Revolt?

It's the 36-inch model. With the deck out, it's 38.5 inches wide with the chute up and 50.5 inches with the chute down. It weighs 805 lb and runs a 22 hp Kawasaki FX691V. If you've got tight gates on your route, start there.

You can choose a Kawasaki FX850V at 27 hp, a Kawasaki FX781V EVO EFI at 31 hp or a Vanguard EFI at 28 hp. The 54 offers the same three. Both use a Hydro-Gear 3400 12cc integrated transaxle and hold 8 gallons of fuel.

What does the Bad Boy Revolt platform ride on?

It's an adjustable rubber suspension riding platform. You stand on it instead of sitting in a seat, and you can adjust it to suit you. That's on all four deck sizes, from the 36 up to the 61, so you'll get the same ride whichever you pick.
