Thanks fellas. I picked the secondhand unit up and will give it a once over before I play with it.
After fixing an old Tecumseh 6.0HP and sticking it on a Rover base and giving it to a mate to use I like the OHV motors as I can make valve adjustments easily. The Tecumseh was very rattley when I got it but a quick valve adjustment quietened it up considerably and made it much easier to start.
These Kawasaki motors seem to get mixed reviews.
