I would say that would be a very strong motor... would definitely recommend that you have the motor checked (as with anything used), including AT LEAST:
1. Compression test (leakdown test is even better)
2. Gearcase- check for water or metal in lube, ensure proper operation
3. Computer Diagnostic, including printout of hours and any fault history
4. Review of maintenance (to determine what may be due, or prudent).
