Honda 81320-VL0-B00 Fabric Grass Bag

What It Is

This is the OEM fabric grass bag (Part #81320-VL0-B00) for select Honda HRX and HRS walk-behind mowers. It catches clippings during mulching or bagging, designed to fit Honda’s MicroCut twin-blade system for fine shredding.

Fitment & Compatibility

Critical checks before purchase:

• Deck size: Fits 21-inch Honda decks only (HRX217, HRS216 series). Not for 20” or 22” decks.
• Model series: Works with HRX217HMA, HRX217HYA, HRX217TDA, HRS216SDA, HRS216PDA. Check your mower’s model number (sticker under seat or on engine shroud).
• OEM vs aftermarket: Honda OEM part. Aftermarket bags (e.g., Oregon, Arnold) often have different attachment hooks or smaller capacity—verify bag’s mounting bracket alignment.
• Measurements: Bag opening is ~10” wide × 8” tall; overall length ~24”. Make sure your mower’s bagger frame uses the same hook spacing (center to center ~6.5”).
• Not compatible with HRX217VKA, HRX217VLA, or any Honda self-propelled models with a different bagger system (e.g., Versamow).

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Heavy-duty fabric with reinforced seams, but not waterproof. Avoid leaving it out in rain—mildew can form.
• Installation: Tool-free. Attach to mower’s bagger frame hooks; ensure the bag’s rear flap seals against the mower deck to prevent clippings escaping.
• Common gotcha: The bag’s plastic stiffener strip at the top can crack if overstuffed or left in direct sun. Handle gently when full.
• Capacity: Holds ~1.5 bushels (approx. 12 gallons). For large yards, you’ll empty it frequently—consider a second bag for efficiency.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible Honda HRX or HRS 21” mower and want a direct OEM replacement that matches the factory bag’s fit and performance, this is the right choice. Aftermarket bags are cheaper but often need modification; this one clicks right on. Skip it if your mower isn’t listed or if you need a larger-capacity bag for a commercial mower.
