Genuine OEM Grass Catcher Frame with Bag Compatible with Honda HRN216 PKA, PKAA, VKA, VLA, VLAA, VYA, VYAA, VKA4 Series Mower 81330-VR8-N00, 81320-VR8-N00

What It Is

This is a genuine OEM grass catcher frame and bag assembly for Honda HRN216 series mowers. It replaces the factory bagging system to collect clippings during mulching or side-discharge conversion, designed for residential use on 21-inch deck models.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower model: fits HRN216 PKA, PKAA, VKA, VLA, VLAA, VYA, VYAA, and VKA4 series. Check your deck size—this is strictly for 21-inch Honda HRN216 decks. Verify your mower’s serial number against Honda’s parts list; the bag frame part numbers are 81330-VR8-N00 (frame) and 81320-VR8-N00 (bag). This is OEM, so no aftermarket fitment issues, but it will not work on non-Honda mowers or older HRN216 variants without the same mounting bracket system. Measure the bag attachment area on your mower to ensure the frame hooks align—common mismatch occurs on models with side-discharge kits installed.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: OEM Honda construction—heavy-duty fabric bag and rigid plastic frame that withstands regular use; no tearing or warping reported.
• Installation: Easy bolt-on job; you’ll need a 10mm socket and about 15 minutes. No modifications required if your mower has the factory bagging mount points.
• Common gotcha: The bag frame must be fully seated into the mower’s rear hooks—if it’s loose, clippings spill out. Also, the bag capacity is 1.5 bushels; overfilling reduces airflow and clogs the chute.
• Compatibility note: If your mower has a mulching plug installed, you must remove it for the bag to attach properly.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own a compatible Honda HRN216 mower and want a reliable, hassle-free OEM bagging system that fits perfectly without guesswork. At $210, it’s a premium price, but the 5.0-star rating and genuine Honda build make it ideal for homeowners who mow weekly and need consistent clippings collection without aftermarket fitment headaches.
