Is this motor suitable as a kart engine??? I want the electric start and this is the only motor I have found that is small and has a starter. (Also is California approved) It looks like it's the same as any GX160 but just has the starter.

Has anyone used this motor or know anything about the type??? I seem to be having trouble with this link, hope it works.

Thanks...........Kent

Thanks...........My research indicates your right. Also for info I noticed the Small Engine Warehouse has a GX200 they sell that they have installed the starter and nesassary assesories. It's less than the Honda equiped GX160. It's $440 last time I looked. I bet you could pick up a starter etc from them if you wanted.

JUst for info, Thanks..........Kent
