Our verdict
Kubota Z781KWTi-60
The Z781 sits at the top of Kubota's homeowner range, and it earns the spot with an EFI engine and real speed. Fuel injection means it starts on the first turn of the key and drinks less than a carburetted twin of the same size, and at 11.2 mph it is the quickest thing in its class on open ground. The suspension seat and folding ROPS come standard, and you can option airless Michelin Tweels to forget about flats entirely. It costs proper money and is dealer-only. For three or more acres where you want speed, easy starting and a machine built to last, it is a strong pick.
