Hey Karl. I’m planning a build pretty much identical to yours besides the possibility of 12-14” golf cart wheels on low profile 20-22” tires front and back. This will be my first build but I’m more than capable of doing all things necessary. Anyway I’ve got a free lightly used GX270 and would...

Thanks for all the help. 35mph sounds decent to me as long as it gets there quick (torque). Especially for a cart that will also be driven by my 10yo. And unfortunately a new $500 motor isn’t in the budget when I already have a true Honda that’s free and almost new. Christ, the Moto wheel and...

Math is not my thing. Is there an app for this?
