Briggs V twin Vanguard. I’m not sure if I can, but I would like to have a push button start switch (2 wire if possible since I have a switch that is that), and a separate kill switch (two terminal latching push button). Problem is I have no clue how to accomplish that. So if someone who is...

Ok, I have finally focused my efforts to one single project and it’s going to be a V twin powered Manco Silver Fox. I’m going to have many many questions about this I’m sure so I decided to start a thread dedicated to them and to post pictures of progress etc. I’m looking for...

4.3:1 ratio using a GX390 governed with a 40 series TC and 18” tires on a Yerf Dog adult/mid size off-road two seater kart. I think that the general rule of thumb is 6:1 ratio but I’m not clear about if that is for flat surface riding on paved/hard surfaces or what. I ordered a jackshaft kit...

I want to install a Briggs Vanguard V-Twin onto a KD-150GKH-2. Has anyone had experience doing this or know of a resource that I could use to make this happen? I've seen different adult karts with this type of swap done, but none on the KD-150GKH-2. I have a few different kart/mini bike projects...

So I picked up a Chinese mini chopper, with a beastly 49cc:roflol:. I've been searching the internet for options to replace it with and currently am doing so still, but I thought I'd ask you guys if y'all have any experience or recommendations with this. It's electric start currently, and I...

Trying to get any information about this bike I can. I think it's 49cc also, and if so that just won't do lol. Any ideas on engine swaps, performance parts etc is also welcomed.

I know that it’s been done several times and several ways, but I’m lost as to how. Are there fully automatic transmission setups or does it require a clutch and shifter? There’s really just a few things (like that transmission to live axle stuff) that I don’t know enough about to even ask...

Any info and opinions on these? I need to find either OEM parts or (if they're worth adding mods to) performance parts. I have zero experience with these. It came on a Manco Coyote LXT (445-241) I picked up yesterday.

Stumbled upon this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqgvY90V2ZM and wanted to know if anyone has removed the governor in this fashion and/or if it's ok to do so. Skip to 3:03 minutes into video. If it's not an acceptable practice, what would be the way to go about governor removal?

Posted this in “all other parts “ but maybe belongs here. I pulled this off my 390 shaft, what is it ?

Are the Chinese knockoffs quality comparable with the Comet, or other name brands? Debating what to put on a GX390 so I want something that can be reliable with the torque that it puts out.

I have a used GX390 UT2 that originally had a starter. How do I wire up a starter? Explain like I’m 5 because electric start is something I never dealt with before lol. Also, how would I go about relocating the off/on/start switch to where I can control it from the seat , like a car would be, do...

Should be easy for y’all, but what Kart body is this?

Ok, so I’m wanting to replace the sprocket, hubs, and possibly the carrier bearings for the live axle. I’m looking for a 4 on 4 bolt circle with 1/2” stud hub, but I’m not sure if the axle is 1” or 3/4” or a 1” stepped down to 3/4” (haven’t taken the back wheels off or torn the axle apart yet...

Predator 212 with GPS intake kit (.038 jet), new factory style carb, 10T jackshaft sprocket and 60T live axle sprocket, 16x6.5-8 rear tires, straight pipe exhaust, Max-Torque torque converter, and that’s on a Big Thunder kart. I read how to adjust the carb on here (starting point etc), but I’m...
