Default Force .28 sell it or keep it...?

i bought a used buggy on eBay... the engine it comes with is a Force .28 engine that is barely used... the owner states that he has only ran half a tank of gas through it...

i am debating if i should sell this engine and get a .21 size engine with a pull starter or keep this one... but if i keep this one, i will need to get a pull starter and one way bearing for it or an Ofna shaft starter... in either case, i'm gonna have to spend atleast $25 extra if i keep this motor...

mostly, i'm worried about fuel consumption and it seems to me that a .28 engine is pretty big... on a 125cc gas tank, how long a run time does a .28 engine get...? how about a .21...?
