Default Honda 5 hp 4 stroke for sale on kijji

200$. Calgary. Opinions. Should I buy it?

What if I get it and it smokes or makes a noise after I don't see it running?

Be careful there was a post on one of the groups the other day some body bought a dud and didn't know what to do with it. May or may not be it so just beware there may be one out there even if this one is a good one.

Kind of a mean spirited thread, but "boys" need an outlet I guess.

How about taking a garden hose and a set of ear muff's with you. Likely wouldn't hurt to take a couple liter's of gas too.

I wasn't trying to be rude,do not do this deal cause there maybe someone at the light post wanting to rob you or hurt you.Then whoever is calling you on the deal just says it's not his fault and does this over.Just a shot in the dark and I good be very wrong ,but I was more concerned about your well being and in no way trying to be mean,if so I am sorry for the way it came out.CHEERS No honest man wants to leave money at midnight at a drop off,if he is worried about getting robbed by you then have the deal done in the police parking lot in day light hours in front of the camera's,then go and try the motor out before paying at location that you pick not him.BEST OF LUCK.
