What is the benefit of the Kawasaki FX series engine over the FR or FS series?
The FX series is Kawasaki’s top-tier commercial engine, featuring a heavy-duty canister air filter and metal engine shrouding. This provides superior cooling and filtration compared to residential engines, ensuring a much longer lifespan when mowing large acreages in the dusty conditions typical of a New York summer.

How-to adjust the deck height on the Bad Boy Rebel?
The Rebel uses a magnetic pin system for extreme accuracy and ease of use. Simply press the foot-assist pedal to take the weight off the deck, move the magnetic pin into the desired height hole on the console, and slowly release the pedal to lock it in place.

What-is the advantage of the Reaper® tires on the 2026 Rebel?
Reaper® tires feature a unique wrap-around tread pattern that provides significantly more surface area for traction. This allows you to maintain stability on the damp hillsides common in the Adirondack foothills without the “spinning” that often tears up turf with standard turf tires.
