This is a kart I've been working on over the past few months. I started out helping a kart racing buddy of mine build my motor, its a 6.5 clone with arc billet rod and flywheel, ported and shaved head, bp2 cam, bored and ported carb off a 13hp Honda engine, and header with a rlv muffler. I run...

Yes, I have thought about the 15-5x6 but I really wanted the same size on front and rear maybe go a little wider in the rear if anything. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Hey guys, on my kart I have 6" tall by 5" wide wheels all the way around. I recently bought two 13-5x6 tires and mounted them on the rear, it was actually the only 2 in stock when I bought them. So I need 2 more and I've thought about trying a 13-6x6 and mounting them on the rear if the 6" wide...

That's a bad looking little ride, very nice Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

On these motors to turn them harder than about 6000 rpm's billet rod and flywheel are a necessity because that's the 2 weak points of a 6.5 clone. As far as sanctioned kart races it all depends usually a box stock class is an untouched motor straight from the box no more, whereas any other class...

Order an autolite 3910x plug and you won't have to ever worry about gaping the plug again and have you checked to see if its getting a strong spark may need to lightly sand the flywheel if it rusted up Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I think I run an autolite 295 in a methanol flathead I have. As far as running rough I know the slightest change in weather makes them a pain in the *** to get running right Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I second the rlv muffler clamped to a header its what I run on my alky open motor and it sounds great and not too loud Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Thanks for the reply. I did call azusa and on these particular axles the key way does run from end to center on both ends but they are 180 degrees apart Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Hey guys I'm considering buying a 1" azusa flexpruf axle it would be the standard with 3/4 step down. What I need to know first is how the keyway is on this axle, is it keyed the full length of the axle or just in certain places. I've looked everywhere and can't find any info, thanks

I haven't had time to get the tires right yet I'm running it how it was when I got the frame the left rear is due for replacement because it will eat a tire off quick I'm trying to figure out how to get a wider tire on the drive side

Thanks

New here and wanna show off my recent build. The motor was built by a buddy of mine who races karts. The engine is a 212 lifan greyhound with arc billet rod and flywheel,shaved and ported head, arc bp2 cam, and ported and jetted carb. I run it on 110 and it will fly
