As a comparison, Honda uses their GSV160 and GXV160 engines on their commercial mowers. The GSV160 (160cc) on the push version is rated at 4.4 HP and 6.9 lbf ft torque, and the GXV160 (163cc) on their hydrostatic transmission commercial is rated at 4.3 HP and 7.1 lbf ft torque.

That helps, thank you. After I get my new Stihl trimmer next week, the Honda mower is my next purchase. The grass is and weeds are beginning to grow here in north Georgia.

I think the GCV190 is a lot more powerful than the 160, but that's just me. My HRR would die in foot-tall grass, but with the HRX it sounds just like it does mowing 1-INCH grass! :thumbsup:

Thanks! No dealers near me, but I'll travel a bit longer to buy from a dealer rather than buy from Home Depot down the road.

Geez, and they're talking about the possibility of more snow here! Want any recommendations on snow blowers?

Thankfully no need for snowblowers here. My Stihl BR600 would have to do if it did snow.

I am working on a snow-Kudzu hybrid that will allow all you Southern gentlemen a taste of true Southern/Yankee hospitality. :drink::drink:
