Default 250cc vs 150cc

I have to choose between a liquid cooled 250cc Dazon and an air cooled Helix 150cc. Both need some work and both are priced at $450. The Dazon has lights and mud fenders that the Helix does not. The Dazon new cost about $1200 more than the Helix. The 150cc engines seem to have lots more mod parts but perhaps the 250cc has enough power without them. I can do the work on both and think the Dazon will be $150 cheaper to restore. Neither cart can be started due to dead batteries but are claimed to be running. Is the cooant system in the 250cc more trouble prone than the air cooled 150cc? Are parts for the Dazon 250cc harder to come by than the 150cc Helix? I am a good amateur mechanic. With this info, what do you advise for a first cart? I am in paralysis by analysis and need advice!
