I have heard lots of good things about these engines but have no direct experience with them.I do have a new 60cc ZDZ which is the finest gasser I have owned in every respect.Bill you say they dont measure up to Taurus in some ways.....would you care to name one?
How are we to compare anything with Taurus when they dont publish the weight,it isnt clear whether the weight of the ignition,battery,and switch is included or not,they publish HP ratings which are meaningless,they dont say whose ignition they are using and what type,they dont say whether the ignition is shielded or not etc etc......
They may be as good as some other modern engines from a tech point of view,but dont you think their marketing needs a lot of work?
