Pays to shop around, that's for sure.

If you can't get a better price than $300, I'd almost be happy to get the Honda at the extra $15. But don't forget you'll need the 3/4 clutch half, so expect another $80-100 on top for that. Potentially the clutch bearing as well if you can't salvage the one out of the existing half- $25 - 40 there.

If and when you do buy a B&S, unless you already have some - don't forget to buy the oil for it - hey BB wink
Wonder if the Honda's come supplied with oil...
