• ELITE VALUE: The ZT Elite has long been our biggest seller, and it's no wonder why. This mower is built as tough as they come with our patented front suspension and superior comfort. You'll get a quality cut at an even better price.
• MOWING IS A BREEZE: Formed from tough 7-gauge steel with reinforced edges, the unique baffling system maximizes airflow for greater grass lift and a cleaner cut. You can easily adjust the deck height to get your lawn looking exactly how you want.
• THE INDUSTRY STANDARD FOR ZERO-TURN: The ZT Elite Zero-Turn Residential Lawn Mower has been Bad Boy's most popular mower for a reason. It's built as tough as they come, more comfortable than ever before and loaded with innovations, all at a great value. The ZT Elite Zero-Turn Mower features newly-styled tanks, new cooler and rear covers, and new pulley covers. It rides on a patented independent front suspension. And you'll ride on a seat that's been upgraded to be even more comfortable. Built to perform day in and day out, it's no wonder this is Bad Boy's #1 selling mower. You get the highest quality cut at an even better price.
• PUT THIS DECK TO THE TEST: If you want a durable and tough residential mower, you've come to the right place. ZT Elite was custom made for the demanding homeowner, and it won't bend or wobble under the stress of everyday mowing. It's built on a strong 2˝ x 2˝ all steel rail frame, with industry-leading 3/8˝ steel front forks and a solid steel, all-welded deck. It's the heaviest-built deck you can get in this class of mowers. Formed from heavy-duty 3/16” or 7-gauge steel with reinforced edges, the unique baffling system maximizes airflow for greater grass lift and a cleaner cut. Plus, thanks to our left or right side deck lift pedal, you can easily adjust deck height for a perfect cut time and time again.
• DRIVING TO BE BETTER: Bad Boy continues to set the standard for customization. The ZT Elite Mower has 2 powerful engines to choose from – including limited-edition options from Kohler. Known for their reliability, our engines continue to perform year after year, season after season. Our model even comes equipped with a Commercial-Style Drive Arm Actuator System. You'll love the class-leading torque, higher horsepower versus the competition, and the commercially rated hydraulics, unheard of on a residential mower. Then we topped it off with class-leading fuel capacity of 6.5 gallons. It's power and performance at an unbeatable value.
• PRIORITIZING YOUR COMFORT: A revolutionary addition to the ZT Elite is the Independent Front Suspension. This patented innovation helps the mower glide over any terrain, creating a smoother cut and a more comfortable ride. It's so smooth, we named it EZ-Ride®. If the steering feels tighter and smoother, you can thank our steering dampening system. It delivers better steering response and maneuverability. Couple all that with the higher-backed adjustable seat equipped with padded armrests, and this is the smoothest, most comfortable ride you can get on a zero-turn mower in this class. We even threw in a cup holder.
