So recently about three days ago I had an accident with my yerf dog 3203 and rolled it over. I had started to lose. Faith and says its junk and not the best. But ever since that roll over and flipping on sides I got to admit that if it wasn't for that roll cage I wouldn't be here today. So that if anyone is wanting to know if they're good or related able and safe well IMO its a yes. All the damages was only scrape on frame by the rocks.

BTW I wrecked at full speed 29mph with predator 212cc fully stock.

My nephew rolled the 3203 same set up. No damage, only his pride. The brush guard held up well. Yerf dogs are still not a good quality kart in my opinion. That specific model has a high center of gravity which makes it easy to roll. Independent wussy front suspension makes it easier to roll on a turn too.

Fun kart though as it is light, has good handling and looks, but is too narrow and flips easily.

you try to make that thing go any faster - reinforce the brush guard! (or as you call it, roll cage)

Yes center of gravity is height and nearly any hard turn will lift one side up on Two wheels. as for fun,, you betcha

I've come close with my silver fox and I'll say this, if you think it can't happen to you, it can. I've been in roll over wrecks in a car so I know what it is like. I'm collecting Yamaha blaster front suspension parts to modify my kart with to try to avoid bad handling.

man yall make me sad the first time i rack my fire fox i had no road cage and ended up fliping around 6 times just hiting the ground, than i ended up jumping a hill and fliping because a lil kid ran out in front of me, than i flip a yerf dog without brakes and bent the whole top. i must have bad luck with karts, and ozan-fox wouldnt lowing the top and making it a little wider also help in the handing since it wouldnt be as easy to flip than?
