thank you all for the advice. I put a model through AutoCad and realized my welds would need to be orders (3) off magnitude better to conduct the horsepower I want to throw at it. Im gonna go with the custom hub idea from Master Hack
I meant welding tabs on, then drilling holes and bolting the sprocket to the holes. I can control concentricity by changing where I drill the holes, and by not welding the sprocket, I don't warp it. I could then make the tabs identical to lessen the vibration from oscillation. Im using a 1 and...
I understand that the sprocket need to be concentric to the live axle on a kart. I previously posted this idea and was told it would not work because the sprocket would not be concentric. If I welded tabs to either side, then measured out the holes radial from the center of the axle, it should...

Clean the filters (Dawn dish soap and WARM not hot water works well for me)
It's rough being new to this forum, but please do make an effort to use spell check. The added time of your right click left click saves these old grease-stained geezers grizzled veterans time
Also make sure to...
Would an electric motor solve any of these problems? I could mount a motor to the cylinder bolts and run a chain to the clutch from there, then stick batteries and a controller above it.
Are there sister bikes for an older gen yz? Will a 95-yz80 rod fit a 86 yz-80 engine? If not, is there a site like Engine, Transmission, Chassis Swap Donor Vehicle Look-Up (roadkillcustoms.com) for donor bike lookup?
probably cheaper to just get a new motor
I am trying to replace a missing piston and connecting rod in a 80cc yz-80. However, I am poor and cannot afford the 300$ for a piston and connecting rod from Wossner Yamaha YZ80 1985-1987 – WOSSNER NA (wossnerpistons.com). Any tips on doing it cheaper? Should I just replace the engine? Or buy a...
