List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- PRO-TURN 572 KAWASAKI FX1000 EFI lists at $17,899; V-Ride LS lists at $6,299 to $7,599, a $11,600 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- PRO-TURN 572 KAWASAKI FX1000 EFI has a 72 in (1,829 mm) deck; V-Ride LS has a 36 in (914 mm) deck, a 36 in difference. Deck width sets how much grass each pass covers. Mowing time also depends on ground speed, turns and obstacles, so a wider deck alone does not fix the job's length. Time both decks on your own lawn ›
- PRO-TURN 572 KAWASAKI FX1000 EFI has a 38.5 hp engine; V-Ride LS has a 18.5 hp engine, a 20 hp difference. Published horsepower is the maker's rating at a stated engine speed. It is a different measure from displacement, and two engines of equal rating can pull differently.
- PRO-TURN 572 KAWASAKI FX1000 EFI weighs 1,609 lbs (729.8 kg); V-Ride LS weighs 716 lbs (324.8 kg), a 893 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What PRO-TURN 572 KAWASAKI FX1000 EFI's weight means for a trailer ›
- PRO-TURN 572 KAWASAKI FX1000 EFI has a published top speed of 15 mph; V-Ride LS has a published top speed of 7 mph, a 8 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
