Ybravo 25 Gen II Commercial Mower

[@David-zp1vo]

The 25" no doubt would be great, but I absolutely love the solid feel my 21" currently provides. The engineering that went into this product is awesome! I hope you guys dump some serious funds into marketing these better!

[@The2012waiting]

What is the difference between the gen 1 and 2, your website shows both with Kawi engine all same specs except Gen II is 10lbs heavier?

[@glennevitt5250]

I'm looking at This Mower now Thank you for this information 😎🤙

No problem, let us know if you have any questions we can help answer

[@leadnsteel1428]

@@ybravocommercialmowers3956 is it still available? I will buy 1 for my landscape buisness

[@blackheart9068]

You guys need to put a mechanism to engage the transmission from the handle with at least 3 speeds, have at least 2x2 wheel height adjustment instead of independent and make the handle more ergonomic in a way that mimics a steering wheel grip position and include a side discharge.

[@roncosby9390]

I agree, the 2 speed transmission control is a deal killer for me. Maybe they will improve that. Some folks out there complaining that they are too fast even in low gear.

[@williambuchanan0711]

We have the Badboy 25" which is the same mower just painted orange. Great mower, a true commercial mower

[@andreabond3501]

When is it available in Australia?

[@GregsMowing]

Looks a great mower. Bring to the uk please. The blade system looks a lot like toros ...

[@kenbehl2659]

I do plan on purchasing this mower. Only two problems, no dealers sell this mower close to me and in in my second year of owning a lawn care business. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these, I'm so tired of Toro junk. I purchased a new Toro 22" in March and it has been nothing but trouble since.

Great mower. Any plans for 30 inch cut mower?

I just bought my self a bravo on offer up app it's badass the ybravo is way to far from the incompetent only pro use this mower an it's my b-day today

[@stevenl5652]

Do any of the machines have side discharge?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey Steven, yes sir our side discharge accessory fits all of our mowers. If you need it, the part# for that accessory is 201238-1

[@andreabond3501]

Bag Capacity?

[@estephanievasquez7096]

is this mower better than the 21 or 30 inch exmark mowers?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hello Estephanie, we will never speak badly about another manufacture. I cant speak for the exmark mowers, but I can tell you that once someone gets the opportunity to use a Ybravo they are sold! So much thought and detail has gone into designing a mower that is reliable, sturdy, and cost effective for the end user. We hope you give us a chance to show you that we really have a great product to offer. Please let me know if we can be of any further assistance. Email us at [e-mail]

[@estephanievasquez7096]

how many horse power does the kawasaki engine has?

[@estephanievasquez7096]

your saying that this engine is 4.5 hp?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

I think I will just leave this here for you www.kawasaki-criticalpower.com/engines/fj180v-0 It is not 4.5hp

[@brucebonkowski3037]

is the deck alunium

[@AsloAso]

Would be nice if it has an option for front lawn caster wheels to make it easier to mow in tight areas.

[@ryanmarks5178]

My xzact thoughts! if this vid was more recent they might see this!

[@m0ose22]

Would be worse on slopes. Cant have it all

[@pspillow]

It seems to be oriented to bagging... Any owner opinions on the mulching capability?

[@mrkwns24]

Terrible at mulching. The grass would clog up at the back where the mulch plug is set in, and several times it seized up the blade on my Ybravo mower. The last time was so bad that the engine started smoking a lot. I sold the machine and went back to my trusty Honda HRX217. Mind you, my experience was on short, thin turf; never mowed an overgrown lawn with this machine. Save your money.

[@bazzamow7031]

Wish these mowers were in new Zealand please

[@petermaroney2488]

That’s not heavy grass. Try mowing coarse bladed Zoysia at 1” here in the south. A rotary mower can’t even mow fine bladed zoysia. Better have a reel mower for that!

[@thecuttingforce]

I would like to try one.

[@BirchsLawnCareLLC]

This is the mower I am currently deciding to pull the trigger on. The bad is the closest dealer is still a long ways away hopefully one will be closer soon. I may have to talk to my current dealer and see if he will bring Y-Bravo's into his shop.

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Lawn Care Life, welcome to the Ybravo family. We appreicate the opprotunity to show you that you are making the right decision. Please let us know if there is anything we can assist with in the future.. [e-mail]

[@paulwallace8527]

looks like a quality mower,do you have any distributors/dealers in Australia?we pretty much have to choose between Toro and Honda for decent commercial mowers here.

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey Paul, thanks for the comments. We currently do not have representation in the Australia market.. but that is only at this time..

[@kevingriffin1356]

I've got 2 30" turfmasters and they run the same Kawasaki engine and with them being twin blade I find them underpowered. Great on flat surfaces with dry summer grass but bog down and lots of cleaning when grass is damp or long. Also don't like hills much. So I can see the power would show as improved on this lighter machine so three questions. First is what do they way? Second is can they side discharge? Lastly I observed in the video that the deck has an opening to the belts from underneath. Does that not allow lots of grass to get up there?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey Kevin, all great questions. I will give you the answers based on our 25" machine as that is the most popular. 1.) The 25" weighs right at 127lbs 2.) Yes it can discharge, we offer a separate discharge accessory that attaches where the bag would go. 3.) I guess some grass could accumulate in that area overtime, but so far we have not had any issues regarding that manner. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any other questions

[@kevingriffin1356]

Thanks for the response. I've been in contact with my dealer.

[@miket7071]

I thought the opening between the deck and belt was odd too. Could wet mulching clump grass up there?

[@andybub45]

I love this mower and wish i could buy one online cause the nearest dealer is in another state!

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Andrew, we apologize there is not a dealer near you. You can email us at [e-mail] and we can help you out

[@benjaminparks152]

I've been a commercial landscape maintenance contractor for eighteen years now and I would love to buy one of these mowers or possibly three of them . just seems I can't find dealers here in San Diego, California. please let me know if I can buy directly from you guys.

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey Benjamin, Sorry for the delayed response. If you go to www.ybravo.com and select the dealer locator above, I show a few dealers in your area. They should be more than willing to help you out, plus that will save money on shipping costs buying from somewhere local. We wish you all the best

[@The2012waiting]

Got a critter digging at 8:14 lol....

[@JesusIsaFlatEarther]

How is a mower without side discharge a commercial mower?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Isaiah 40:22 our mower has commercial grade features throughout the entire unit. The unit comes with a mulch plug and a grass bag, but we do have a separate discharge chute as an accessory

[@JesusIsaFlatEarther]

Ybravo guy, thanks for the reply Is there a video of this mower rear discharging tall grass? There's a video of a Honda 216 rear discharge, and I can't see why I would want my shoes and pants caked with wet grass, when a side discharge opening is what's really needed. I and most people I know don't bag grass. I live in the northeast where people fertilize their grass. When it's 8 inches tall, mulching isn't a time efficient option. I currently have the Timemaster that hates tall, wet grass. I want to mulch a 100%, but I have to face reality and use the side discharge. So that makes the Ybravo not a viable option, unless I make my own opening and door. I'm looking at the Sears 28 inch mower to replace the Timemaster, but i know if Sears sells it, it's not professional grade and I'll hate something about it. And it's beyond me, that so many manufacturers have forgotten the need and benefit of side discharging. If I tell you 10 things I want in a mower, you'll build one with 8 and hope I buy it. And in case you've not noticed, the blogs about lawn care often mention the need for a small, wide area mower like the Timemaster that will handle mulching tall/wet grass. Your direct drive, single blade mower is 20% bigger then a 21 inch mower, which is a step in the right direction. But with no side discharge, it's a step back, and I"m back to square one, of still looking.

[@JesusIsaFlatEarther]

Duke, I bought a Craftsman Pro Series 28 inch self propelled to replace my Toro Timemaster and I've been very pleased with it. I didn't buy the bagger option with it, because I use if primarily for ditches and trim work, and have yet to use the side discharge because I'm lazy. It's not as fast as the Timemaster and probably doesn't give as good a cut in ideal conditions. BUT, I rarely get ideal conditions and the blades spin in the same direction and don't clog up in heavy grass like the Timemaster, which is why I got rid of mine. The Troy-Bilt is the same basic mower, but I believe it comes standard with a bagger and I don't bag. The Craftsman comes with an attached stripper roller, where I had to buy a separate one for my Toro. So cost wise, it was $700. vs $1,200 for the Toro. I keep the Craftsman roller bungied up when I do ditches and let it down for nice lawns, which works much better then the Toro striper dragging behind the mower. My only concern is, if I had a 21 inch mower, I could get a 48 inch mower on the front of my trailer instead of having to settle for a 42 inch. If I wasn't 59, I'd be looking for a faster mower, but in small areas, you'll never notice it doesn't have the speed of a Timemaster.

[@JesusIsaFlatEarther]

Duke, I had to order my Craftsman online, and it wouldn't let me order it without a bagger, so I had to call to order, I wasn't letting them make me buy a bagger because their system couldn't handle an order without one. . I can't believe how expensive mowers are, I paid $800. for my first car. I didn't get the 65 T-Bird, but it too was $800.

[@JesusIsaFlatEarther]

Duke, I would have wrecked the 65 T-Bird if I had gotten it and my Dad knew it, and made me get a Bel Air with a straight 6 with a top speed of 73 mph, or so the cop said. The Toro Timemaster was my first personal pace and I was impressed. I previously had Snapper's, but they always wear out, but a great mower when new. They get way to much money for the top of the line 21 inch commercial Snapper.

[@temujinkhan6326]

I think I want one. I was looking for a 32-34 riding mower but I think this will fit more on type of yards I do. just purchased Honda 217.... wondering how they compare

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Thanks for the consideration, if you would like I can send you more information. Just email us at [e-mail]. Thanks again

[@cameroncrane3770]

I'm not crazy for the hondas,I like the motors but it's the gears and stuff,I use toro commercials now,I have a Honda as backup but unless hell freezes over I will not take it back out

[@temujinkhan6326]

+Cameron Crane When I quit my job and started last year cutting yards I purchased a used Toro that was 14 years old. Purchased from a landscaper for $130. It was actually in almost mint condition. I have to say that mower was a damn good mower.

[@estephanievasquez7096]

i bought one two months ago and they really sucks. i returned it and i get a worldlawn 28 honda engine

[@terrellsqualitylawncare9820]

is the handle height adjustable for taller users?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey Quincy, Yes! There are 3 different handle settings for the end user

[@miket7071]

Can the handle be set down like the hondas? It's nice to be able to close my tonneau cover over my honda without fear of it getting stolen.

[@fixt100]

Is the transmission on these strong enough to pull a sulky? (you would be the only small mower that i know of that could do this if you can)

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Ha sorry Fixt100, were good but were not that good.

[@bazzamow7031]

You could try steel fort products or mastport NZ or power products nz

[@Irishman1776]

The only thing that's keeping me from buying this mower is the inability to control the speed I mow at. I have a feeling that low gear is too slow and high is too fast for a lot of people.

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hello Irishman, that is a great point. On our machines you do have the ability to "feather" the speed on our mowers to create your perfected speed. Example: If you have a deck or patio you need to get under, you can pull on the bail slowly and make the mower creep under the "careful" spots. I hope this helps, we will make a video on this concept very soon

[@thegoldmind7778]

Can i buy this anywhere in Canada? also how much in Canadian dollars?

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey Parps, you sure can. Im not sure on the Canadian dollar, but here is a contact you can reach out to for more information. Tell them Ybravo sent you! Thanks for reaching out! [e-mail]

[@thegoldmind7778]

Awesome thanks for the quick reply, I will be sure to email them. Ive been doing lawn maintenance for several years now and I must say Ive never seen such a impressive looking walk behind mower. And having a 25 inch deck and kawasaki commercial engine is awesome.

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hey no problem, and thanks very much! We pride ourselves on producing a unit that has a simplistic design that makes sense for any commercial landscaper. Backed by the 5 year consumer and 2 year commercial warranty, we feel like we have one of the best units in the field today. Just gotta get the name out there, and the unit will take care of the rest. Thanks for the compliments

[@Wellmann41]

how much do they cost

[@ybravocommercialmowers3956]

Hello William, it depends on which style you are looking for (BBC or Zone Start). You can find a local dealer near you at ybravo.com/locate-dealer.asp and they can give you the run down

[@terremoto..6809]

I like the machine except for the belt drive blade
