For my self and the type of riding I do, the suspension would be the determing factor for me. Is the rear of the Dazon a live axle or independent? I am amazed at where my 150 Hammer head will go after I did some mods on the engine. Out in the desert, the little 150 will go plenty fast and climb any hill I need to, but when the going gets rough, I have to slow down.

For myself, whether it is a full size buggy, dirt bike, or mini buggy, suspension is more inportant then horse power. No matter how much HP you have, if you can't get a good run at a hill because of the bumps at the bottom, you probably won't make it.

Also, check the overall roughness of the buggy. Was it left out side and you have cracked seats and brittle wires, or were they stored correctly.
