I have a talon mower of a customers in at the moment, it has worn out valve guides and rings (no bull, the exhaust valve has 5mm of play when open side to side, and as soon as the engine warms up it dies as it expands just enough to lose compression.) and I told them to get a new one, if they dont want the talon back I will sell some the carby off it, this one had a broken starter too, I crafted up a way of mounting a briggs starter and solved the problem properly.
