    Cool 116.57 mph ride on mower

    For those that do not like to spent all weekend mowing the lawn this is the machine to have
    I can see that would be a good option for the old timers instead of the boring electric mobility scooters

    The Mean Mower is powered by a 1,000-cc Honda VTR motorcycle engine, which produces 109 horsepower. In addition to its record-breaking top speed, this hot-rod lawn tool can also do 0 to 60 mph in around four seconds.

    Honda says the Mean Mower is geared for speeds up to 130 mph, so another record attempt may be in its future.

    the video: Honda's Mean Mower - officially the world's fastest lawnmower!

    Yes, other ways cannot qualify for the record. Also if you see the last bit in the video cutting grass you will be impressed with the speed that the machine has.

    A full mow with the ride-on takes me around 10 hours so I'd put my hand up for a trial run with it. It looks low enough to be OK on slopes too.

    He'd pull it apart and make it go faster, and also add a home made air compressor and convert it to veggie oil
