Honda 81320-VG4-000 Fabric Grass Bag

What It Is

The Honda 81320-VG4-000 is a genuine OEM fabric grass bag designed for select Honda HRC commercial mowers. It catches clippings during bagging operations, replacing worn or torn originals.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check these before buying:

• Deck size: Fits 48-inch and 52-inch Honda HRC mower decks only.
• Model compatibility: Compatible with HRC216 (all variants), HRC217, and HRC218 series. Not for HRX, HRS, or residential Honda models.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is a genuine Honda part—no fitment guesswork if your machine is listed. Aftermarket bags may be cheaper but often have weaker seams or smaller capacity.
• Measurements: Bag opening is roughly 22 x 12 inches; total bag length is about 30 inches. Confirm your existing bag mount spacing matches (center-to-center pin distance is 18 inches).

Pro tip: If your current bag has a different part number (e.g., 81320-VG4-010), measure the mounting bracket and bag opening before ordering—Honda updated the design in 2019.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Heavy-duty woven fabric with reinforced seams and a plastic bottom panel. Holds up to 3 bushels of grass. Expect 2–3 seasons of regular use before fabric fatigue.
• Installation: Tool-free—slips onto the mower’s bag mount hooks and secures with a single bungee strap. Takes under 2 minutes.
• Common gotchas: The plastic bottom panel can crack if you drag the full bag across concrete. Always lift, don’t drag. Also, the bag’s fabric will mildew if stored wet—hang dry after each use.
• Capacity note: The 3-bushel size is adequate for a 48-inch deck but may fill quickly on a 52-inch deck in tall grass. Plan to empty more often.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible Honda HRC mower and need a direct, no-hassle replacement, this OEM bag is the right choice. It’s pricier than aftermarket options, but the fit is guaranteed and the fabric quality is noticeably better. Skip it if you’re on a budget or have a non-HRC model—aftermarket alternatives or universal bags will work but require adapters.
