I have the same engine in 2 20 yr old machines. You cant beat that Kawasaki. The thing to watch for in these older wbs is the blade engage clutch.

Well if your strapped for cash I would check it out and maybe give it a shot. Although if you saved up another 600 bucks you might be able to find a good hydro machine that doesn't look as beat up.

The mower you use will be a reflection on your company.
