Those blades are lift blades. All the plate does is block the grass from slinging in the road or against your house or vehicle. The make about 3 different blades types for this mower. For mulching or high lift blades for grass catchers.

These Rouges are weak in the front end. Where the front forks bolt into the frame, the welds will crack around there and allow the front to flex. You'll start to notice it cuts shorter in reverse than forward.

I didn’t have any loose bolts or any other defects at all. It is very loud though. It is like a tornado the way it mows. Has a 39HP EFI engine and is a 72” deck.

I've owned 5 top of the line commercial Bad Boys since 2008 and I've loved them all especially after the 2008 model. It had some cut issues but after it they fixed it. Also I found to NOT buy the mulchinng blades and buy the Fusion blades. The fusion gives you a better lift of the grass and gives a quality cut. Recently I've owned a 2019 Rogue and the rear suspension ends broke 2 different times but were easy to fix. So far I haven't had an issue on the Renegades. I currently own 2 Renegades (2021 & 2023), and I love them. I wondered about the horizontal engine if I would like that but so far it's been nice. The only thing on the 2023 the only engine they offer is the Kohler EFI. I sure wanted the Kawasaki EFI but I would have had to chose the Rogue. I didn't want to give up the Renegades rear drop-down back plate feature with the ease of getting to the belts/pulleys, so I chose it. Let me tell you there is not a more powerful engine on these than the Kawasaki, they are awesome but the non-efi does use a lot of fuel. I sure wanted to know how the new 2023 Kawasaki EFI turned out. I litterally think the EFI engines after having 3 of them (Yamaha, Vanguard, Kohler) use half the gas than the Kawasaki but it's an awesome good engine. On the mowing at night, you are correct.......bugs will tear you up. It's absolutely necessary to wear a grinding shield or at least clear goggles at night. I personally wouldn't own one without the flat-free front tires. Never a problem. The biggest feature on all of the Bad Boys I've owned is the "ease of repair and maintenance"...........everything is easy to get to and a lot of repair parts like spindle bearings can be bought at your local parts store. If you really don't appreciate that then go take a look at some of the commercial competitors side by side and you will see the nightmare on some of the others getting to the repair areas. Bad Boy used to get parts shipped same day but that went down since Covid, I'm a little pissy about that.

The problem with the tank lights is it casts a giant shadow precisely where you need to see - in front of you. The tank lights are great as auxillary 'ditch' lights but you need a light bar up front. I have thought about this and will mount a light bar on the roll cage where the line is 'light' is not obscured with shadowing. Just my thoughts.

What I've seen and experienced is 1st the X blade will tear up your PTO twice as fast due to the shock and the weight of the extra blades but the do work. It will mulch grass if you close the chute because the grass has no where to go. It will not mulch as good as when you have the mulch kit on there and I've seen that 1st hand. It will bog the machine down and you do have to cut slower. I think if I had a smaller yard like 1/2 acre instead of 3 I would mulch but I don't want to mow that much at half speed

@@robertmalensek5736 well If you don’t have the right blades can make a difference. Plus ppl don’t realize if the grass is a little wet, too tall makes a difference as well and don’t mention that. You can only go so fast in certain conditions. Plus another factor ppl don’t realize is also HP! Not enough rpm’s and going to fast blades don’t spin fast enough. Some problems can be the mower has to fast top end. Let’s not forget air pressure in your tires can make for patches not being mowed as well. Been there.
