Used Robin engine.. Worth a gamble?

[Dankoozy]

I'm tempted to put in the minimum bid (£25 + 15 shipping). He says its off a water pump so i might have to get a different throttle for it? I don't see many of these engines in the UK or Ireland so I don't know how hard it would be to get replacement parts. Is this 78mm clutch drum or 54?

3000th thread by the way

Looks like a 2-stroke equivalent to the EH025.Probably 54mm (if it has a clutch), and probably not enough oomph without significant modding.

Yea that looks like a 20cc+ motor. Anything less than a 35cc will leave you with regrets in my opinion. My honda 35cc is adequate and fun but any less power I wouldn't be satisfied.

Even less power than the GX25 so. I think I'll give it a skip. The GX25 I'm using is grand, it goes faster than my old Sachs but it wouldn't want to have any less power
