Honda Power Equipment today introduced its new HRX series of premium residential lawnmowers at the 2014 GIE+EXPO trade show. The significantly updated HRXVKA and HRXVYA models offer best-in-class cutting performance, ease of use, durability, control and reliability. All-new for 2014, these HRX models incorporate the Honda Select Drive System, providing control, comfort and convenience to mowing customers. This unique system and innovative design allow the user to rotate the ergonomically located, speed-adjust dial enabling the selection of a desired speed range while also engaging the Select Drive control handle to match the mowing stride. Once the control handle is fully engaged, it becomes an integrated part of the lawn mower handle bar, adding more comfort to the mowing experience. Speed also is adjustable while mowing by engaging the Select Drive control handle or by turning the speed-adjust dial.

In addition to the integration of the Honda Select Drive System, the all-new HRXVKA and HRXVYA models include the Honda 4-in-1 Versamow System with Clip Director, allowing mulching, bagging, leaf shredding or discharging without the need for tools or attachments, along with the proprietary Twin Blade MicroCut System for superior cut quality. The HRXVYA, HRXHYA, and HRXHZA models also incorporate the Roto-Stop Blade Stop System to stop the blade and not the engine, saving time when removing obstacles or emptying the bag. Powered by a lightweight OHC/OHV Honda GCV190 engine, the HRX lawnmower delivers excellent fuel efficiency with optimal power output. The GC190 premium residential engine maintains its reputation as a quiet, easy starting, and durable power source for the mower, even in demanding conditions.

Honda engineers have redesigned these two models of the popular and award-winning HRX lawn mower with the specific intention of creating a more comfortable and convenient mowing experience for our customers, said Alex Torre, Manager, Marketing and Market Research for Honda Power Equipment. The new Select Drive System is a huge step in helping homeowners and landscape professionals get the job done with less effort.

This looks great for a homeowner, I think most pros would just set it to its fastest and never touch it again

Cool! :thumbsup: But I agree with exotion, I keep the mower at the fastest speed 99% of the time. But the handle/controls look very ergonomic on the new design. :thumbsup:

I don't think you have to worry about most pros setting it to the fastest setting.
