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.
- Super S uses a Kawasaki FX850, FX850 EFI engine; FasTrak SDX uses a Kawasaki FX730 engine. The engine maker builds the engine; the mower maker chooses the model, rating and fit, so the badge alone does not settle output or longevity.
- Super S has a Hydro-Gear 12cc pump with Parker TL wheel motors transmission; FasTrak SDX has a Hydro-Gear ZT-3400® transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- Super S has a 29.5 hp engine; FasTrak SDX has a 23.5 hp engine, a 6 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.
- Super S weighs 1,207 lbs (547.5 kg); FasTrak SDX weighs 944 lbs (428.2 kg), a 263 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Super S's weight means for a trailer ›
- Super S cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5.5 in (140 mm); FasTrak SDX cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
