Damn that's a quick mower, credit for being not only functional, but an improvement on the original as a mower too.

That'd do it for sure...ride it on the footpath too.

Many years ago, an aunt of mine had a three wheeled, motorised wheel chair that was warranted to go on the road. Had some 2T engine in it that booted it along pretty fast. She kept getting hauled up by the constabulary for dangerous use of a motor vehicle and for speeding. Then one day she tipped it over in a corner near her house. The coppers took a very dim view of her antics. Dunno what happened to it.

Sorry to be Captain Sensible but does it actually cut grass? Cos it kinda looks like it doesn't. And so it is now a go-kart?
Cool tho, love the L twins!

Funnily enough it does... "The Mean Mower may be fast, but it’s also functional, with two electric motors spinning 3mm steel cutting cables. The cables spin at 4000rpm, cutting grass at a speed of about 15mph, more than twice the speed of a regular Honda HF2620 mower."

Wonder how good a job it would do at 230kph?

Shuddup,as if the VTR wasnt boring enough Honda have decided to attach "mowing lawns" to its CV,Fail though no doubt those that the VTR excites will actually see it as a +.especially the wider seat option.

I reckon, 110hp in a bike is really not enough eh?
