    TKM 135cc Vintage Karting motor (40HP+!!!)

    Hey Guys, got a TKM 135cc race motor with Walbro Carb, one of the official "vintage karting" motors. This thing is crazy, set up with a tuned pipe ($180 on ebay), this thing will run on alcohol, rev to 14k rpms, and pump out a whopping 40+ HP. It came on a frame I bought, and had an Yamaha R1...

    Kx500 2 stroke shifter kart

    Except for the gearing I machined a custom 16t sprocket out of a spare front sprocket, keeping the gear ratio to tire size almost identical, and in fact slightly higher top speed with less torque. And as for the power, it's all about being smooth and not just stomping on it. As far as traction...

    Kx500 2 stroke shifter kart

    Well I've got my student pilot license so that's a start ;) but I've been building and flying model airplanes for years so have quite a bit of experience with lift-aerodynamics, just gotta flip it for downforce. Gonna have a front wing and splitter, as well as a spoiler to keep the rear glued...

    Kx500 2 stroke shifter kart

    Ha that's the idea! Nobody could ever use all 60 horses when on the bike, but 1" above the ground, with double the traction, and little chance of looping out, we'll be able to use more of what it can dish out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

    Kx500 2 stroke shifter kart

    Having wanted a shifter kart as long as I can remember, I finally decided to go ahead and build one. Picked up an old racing chassis off Craigslist, and also a Kx500 2 stroke dirt bike to use the engine out of :) woulda been happy with a 125 or 250 but got a screaming deal on a 500 so decided it...
