    Help for large sprocket and disc brake mount.

    This was mine. I snapped numerous master links before dialing in the sprocket with screw adjustments. I'll see if i can find closeups of the adapter I made.

    Thoughts on creating a go kart from a ATV?

    I apologize for the confusion. I stripped the top end after I posted yesterday and uncovered the damage. I got the quad for 140$, so I'm not too bothered. Alternatively, I might just use a 212 in the quad frame without modifiying it.

    I'd love to see a full carbon pallet build

    Help for large sprocket and disc brake mount.

    I had the same issue you're encountering; mounting a sprocket or a brake rotor to an axle. USE A STORE BOUGHT PART, even if it means buying a new sprocket. I tried to make my own from a mcmaster carr mount and a sprocket and it only ever half worked. Look up concentricity if you dont know it. It...

    Thoughts on creating a go kart from a ATV?

    Im lazy and the chinese company that made the motor went out of business awhile ago (its not an original motor). The wriing harness was done by a crackhead, and the rear brake is missing. (no caliper, the only sign it exists is the rear rotor). I can use the CVT with its 1/4 inch input with a...

    Thoughts on creating a go kart from a ATV?

    Hello y'all. Irresponsible Facebook Marketplace find here. I got a chinese pantora 150cc ATV with a CVT. I'm thinking of stretching the frame and lowering the seat, giving me a cart with independent front suspension and a suspended live axle in the rear, plus the powerful motor. Pictures to...

    Manco vortex go kart

    Probably. ill run some numbers and get back to you. How much does the passenger weigh/kart weigh? Assuming a 300lb corner load you should still be under the modulus for steel at .75" round and 6" past the bearing

    What do I need to know about racing manual?

    Thank you! I was just worried about having a floppy stick vs. paddles; I haven't had to kick a clutch while racing before.

    Hey All! Could use some tips!

    It clearly needs a 55 gallon drum mounted on top

    What did I just buy, no turning back now

    And plenty of torque. Could also source a dirtbike engine. (And run a rear sprocket the size of kansas)

    What do I need to know about racing manual?

    I was given revving instructions by my chief engineer, upshift at 6200 and downshift at 4500. Its an endurance race so Im mainly there to keep the car rolling for 4 hrs while their main driver catches some zzzs. I raced a porsche gt car not too long ago, and learned my lines then, but they've...

    Not shifting into gear

    Sounds kinda like you missed second and shifted back into neutral. On dirtbike transmissions (which I assume is what it is, you have not posted pictures or the kart engine details) the gear order is 1-N-2-3-4-5.

    What do I need to know about racing manual?

    I have been given the opportunity to race a miata around Road atlanta. I daily a manual, so I know how to shift, but I've only ever raced DCTs. Are there/what are the things I need to know about racing a manual? Is there a different shifting method other than clutch in, shift to next gear, wait...

    I need some advice

    Yes, I think the second idea would work.

    750cc Two-stroke Jetski engine + Lawnmower rear end

    It is from a 1999 Kawasaki Xi super jet

    I need some advice

    Having done this recently to a YZ-80, ITS NOT WORTH IT. I guarantee its easier to work within the existing framework and repair the gas system. In the US, no dirtbike/ATV is street legal stock. A 300ex does not have turn signals, plate mount and light, etc. I'm supportive of you getting a FULL...

    750cc Two-stroke Jetski engine + Lawnmower rear end

    I didn't clarify. Plan is to take that out and replace it with the two jetski engines. It already has water intake holes as well. I do not plan to take the mercruiser engine and put it in a kart (well maybe in the future)
