The Z turns are quick little bastages. Great if you've got a big field or a lot of flat land. The Kawi motors are generally great, but super expensive. The core is probably worth something. You might want to look into swapping it for a Kohler Command or even a Briggs Vanguard.Stumbled across this pile on FB marketplace and just couldn't say no. Why do I do this to myself? 61" Ferris zero turn with suspension. 25hp Kawasaki motor, which is blown up. Mowed and moved, until it didn't. LOL going to see if I can salvage the motor. Somehow the bore appears fine at first inspection. Literally no piston left in it, just the rod and wrist pin. Took the same head out as well. $450 for the whole unit. Hoping to get it fixed and running for a total of 1k including buying it.
