Bad Boy ZT Elite 54' Review

18 hour review of my 2022 Bad Boy ZT Elite mower

The Capartments that have those holes in them are so if you put a Roll Bar on it bolts on to the Capartments were you can bolt on a Roll bar which is nice feature! Awesome mower my friend!

I really enjoy your videos. I too have a Maverick like yours, and I am pleased with my Bad Boy. All tires on a zero turn will slip especially on wet grass. It is like a NASCAR race, the faster you go the slower you get. Slow down a little and finish faster without damaging the turf.

I would like to share with you that I installed grease zerts to my mower spindles, front wheel axels, and front wheel spindles. In doing this, I removed the bearing seals that face the grease zert so that the grease would enter the bearings. Then, I use high speed bearing grease. I have done this to my other mower and it is 19 years old and I have never had a bearing to fail. If you like your Maverick, then you may want to do this very simple modification to ensure long lasting bearings.

Again, I like your videos because you are sincere. My modifications are certainly within your wheel house. You should make a video regarding greas bearing modification.

Sincerely, Tony

Hustler and Bad Boy are great mowers. I'm about to get the Bad Boy Elite with the Kawasaki Engine..Might decide to go with the Koehler Pro but that Kawasaki is a great motor

I’m seeing this a year after you posted. Do you still like it? My land pride razor has bought the farm after only 20 years! I gotta get something new and have looked at the bad boy. I am looking for something basic like what I have now. This seems like it’s pretty close.

Will a bagger for the 726cc ZT Elite fit on a 323 DZ?

the kawasaki engine has better air filtration than the kohler. the filter doesn't require tools to change, and has more effective dust removal. i live in FL and will be getting this exact mower with the kaw engine. we have sand, so therefore better air filtration to keep the engine from getting "dusted" prematurely.
