    tips for aligning sprocket?

    My chain falls off and very quickly. I'm going to guess that either my engine isn't on straight or my sprocket isn't aligned well. It stays on even at full throttle with the back end lifted and Noone on it but falls off when you go to ride it almost immediately. Just wondering if anyone has any...

    How do I attach a half link?

    I can't figure it out and the only way I can think of is with a master link. I can see how in my head but only using a master link with it.

    Messed carb?

    My engine sputters but runs is just really loud with the choke closed. When its open the kart moves forward. I started taking off the airbox but never got it off because i couldn't. Well i probably could have but i gave up. Then i took off the throttle arm. I was trying to hook up a throttle...

    Big thanks!!

    I have a few more minor things left to do in the morning but I'm pretty sure when I wake up and at some point this afternoon I'll get to take the go Kart the boy and I have been working on out for a rip. I'd like to thank great knowledgeable members here for sharing their knowledge and...

    Re-jetting Carb

    Coming up in the hopefully near future I plan on removing the governor on my go kart engine. All of it, internals parts included. Anyhow this isn't about that...... I only added that incase it matters. So, also in the future. Maybe in the not so near future but aiming for the end of May I...

    Suggestions on removing these bumper plugs?

    Thinkin about replacing the bumper on my Kart. Lookin for suggestions how to get the old plugs out? I just decided I'd like a new bumper tonight while working on it with the boy so haven't really had a chance to mess with it aside from trying to pull the one plug thats sticking out with vice...

    Axle Wobble :(

    :furious2: So I just noticed when spinning my rear axle it has a Wobble. I suspected it may because imo it doesn't look like the bearing goes into the cassette flush. I haven't really done too much investigating but everything is new. Axle, bearings, cassettes. So I'm guessing non of them are...

    2 master links 1 chain?

    Is that OK? Not sure yet but I may or may not have cut my chain too short by a link. Actually I don't think I did but I kinda messed up a link so it's gotta go. Jw if 2 master links is OK. I have more chain I can use and really cut it but was kinda saving it or I may be able to move my engine...

    Hydraulic Brake, caliper and rotor setup

    I have hydraulic brakes. I'm wondering if it matters if the brake lines matter whether they're on the top or bottom. I'm sure it'd be easier if the bleeder screws were on the bottom but because of how stiff the lines are and the length I think it'd be better for me to have the lines in on the...

    Weight dispersment also engine mount.

    I snapped a few quick pics before my phone died. Anyhow, because of where I mounted my seat, my engine mount has to be offside or the clutch will rub. Is this going to be a problem? Also that side of the kart is going to have a bit extra weight over there with the engine. I think it'll be OK...

    For Frog Snacks $#!T

    I'm guessing kart front tires that are direct spindle mount are usually offset? I just ordered new bearings for my cheap front wheels. I popped them on the front of my kart just to see how they looked cause I have the rear wheels sitting on the axle. It looks :censored: rediculous. Not only does...

    Set Screws

    Is it ok to screw them into the keyway of an axle? That's if they fit, I haven't tried. I'm talking about the set screws for sprockets, lock collars etc. Just wondering because the lock collars I got don't have a keyway.

    Instant 5hp Gain (estimate not actual)

    Did this cool mod to my fairing (is that how it's spelled?) I'm estimating a 5hp gain. Maybe not quite 5 hp but it's gotta be at least good for 3hp. There's one on each side. Min 1.5hp per side increase seems legit but I'm still thinking it'll be closer to 5. My target is beef up the 7hp...

    Clear Coating Decals

    Is this OK or will it oddly make them peel or something? I know there's a proper way to do it so that they look painted on where you have to clear coat it before the decal than after and build up the coat and wet sand and coat it again to wash out the edges. I did it many years ago with a helmet...
