As a child I wanted a motorcycle engine driven 3 pedal goKart. I feel like I am running out of time to build this bucketlist item so here goes. I will either be starting with a shaller conssesion cart or one of these I just drug home. I like the little blue one, you know the old saying light...

Hi guys, I am back, I have some new junk. Tomorrow, I am buying a shaller single seater cart. It runs and drives, I know there heavy, I want to build a motorcycle engine drive cart, I figure this would be a great platform. Here my big question does it have a live axle? The sellers says no, but I...

So I removed an old 3.5 Briggs and clutch which runs great. Replaced it with a new 6.5 pred. And new clutch. Same gearing same belt and chain configuration. Now engine revs hard will literally smoke the drive tire but tops out really fast. I cant get my head around this one. I first thought the...

I have a ken bar streaker, (long and heavy solid axle)I have just located a running 1985 Honda 200s three wheeler 5 speed, so far so good. Here's the rub, sprockets. From what I am seeing online this engine has a sprocket using 520 or 530 pitch chain, this may not be an issue if I can fit the...

I searched the for sale section with no luck. I need a log style carb and the under mount tank that fits it for a 5hp briggs flat top (I believe) or Is there an aftermarket carb I could use and may be a small gravity feed tank that would work? My tank is shot and the carb doesn't look much...

Ok guys, thinking about a new project. Here's the plan and the goal in mind. I have a Streaker with live axle (heavy kart) ready to be built. it had a 212 and a TAV and it was good, not great, but I want more. Its bare frame now. My goal here is to be able to spin the rear tires at will...

Well guys What's the difference in gear ratio between the two? Im looking for more low end out of my tav 30 would this be noticeable? MrC.

I picked up this streaker over the weekend, I plan on keeping this one for myself and sell my smaller orange and black carter kart. This will be a build thread for my streaker. Its heavier and longer than my carter, I had hoped to build it up to drift at will. It looks pretty stock, 1 inch live...

Flipping Karts Hey Guys, I picked up this little jewel this morning to flip for some extra spending money to put a live axle in my kart. Its a Chinese 2014 Taotao side by side gokart, The seller said it needed a clutch, a key and a battery, I also see its missing the sprocket cover. All I...

How bout a thread were we post just pics and specs. Year, make, model, engine size, any special notes. A thread to just view karts and get ideas. Just a thought. MrC.

Live Axle help and tech questions Hey guys, I want to put in a live axle on my kart. I like to get side ways and yes my one wheel wonder will do that but only while turning right. I think my front tractor suspension is causing a lot of wheel spin when I turn left. I have 5 inch wheels and close...
