Anyone use a Briggs 6.5? How would you compare it ot a GX200?

unless it is free I would go with the Honda, much better built motor all around, briggs just act up, a honda will start on the first quarter of a weak shrug, while a briggs may take a couple of pulls, its not that the briggs is a bad motor I just dont like them personally, its Kind of like a which is better Ford or Chevy. also i think Briggs run louder and tend to have more vibration.

i have the briggs 6.5 and it runs like a champs, starts first pull, you just can't be a wimp like those honda owners Cool

. it works really well with the tav, can deep water start all my friends, has more than enough power, pulls easily 25 plus mph, and is cheaper than the honda, which I'm sure is a little nicer, but for the money the briggs will do the trick.

God dammit. I must have started a personal preference thread.
