I'm buying this wrecked kart this evening for $500. It looks like it has a lot of sellable/useable parts on it. Good running KX125 engine. Frame is mangled in front. I doubt I'll use the motor but I can use the wheels, seat, seat mounting system ect. I'll just sell off whatever I don't use on...

I knew I should have just asked before ordering the mount! I did a few searches but surprisingly didn't find anything saying what angle is best with a flathead. I went with the 7 degree because I saw where the tank was when I set the motor on the frame to see roughly how it would fit. I don't...

I'm hopefully bringing the frame by a powder coater tomorrow to see if his actual price matches his over the phone guesstimate of $150-$200, which I doubt it will. I didn't mention the front & rear bumpers or the side bumper/nerf bars (whatever they're called) but if I can get it all done for...

Ok bshinn if you were really interested in the KT let me know and I'll get you the Craigslist info. I'm not sure if there are any rules against posting links to items on Craigslist or else I'd just post it here. The mount on it is for an international frame so it won't work for me so that's...

Thanks everyone for the kind welcome. I'm impressed, I was able to find out exactly what kart I have very shortly after signing up here (1989 Margay Lynx AC) mr.matt...southwest side, actually live right on the edge of Sugarland.

That KT is stuck in my head. If I can make it there before he sells it I'm going to get it. Can you tell from the pic what brand clutch it has and possibly the mount too?

Not too worried about the noise aspect, my neighbors are very used to the sound of my 2 strokes tearing around the neighborhood. Yes the axle does have a 1/4 key so I don't think moving the sprocket over would be an issue. One of my biggest concerns is cost, I'm trying to spend as little as...

I wasn't 100% sure about using the CR motor either way but the seller made my decision for me. After setting it up with him and driving for 25 min to get it, the guy wasn't even there and he wanted me to wait for "15 minutes or so" for him to get back...So rather than wait around I headed back...

Lol..I know I think it was a steal, so cheap that I'll probably get the frame powder coated instead of painting it like I was planning on doing. I'm about to leave my house to go look at a 1997 CR80 project I just found online for $100! It's missing the gas tank & number plates and needs a top...

Well that was fast..I have a 1989 Margay Lynx AC. Thanks a lot for the help! I'm ordering the replacement spindle today and probably new tie rods. Now I need to decide what motor to throw in it. Oh and it did come with the floor pan, seat mounting struts and a couple motor mount clamps.

Thanks bshinn! I submitted the form with the serial number a couple of hours ago, hopefully I hear something soon. I'm ready to get some parts on the way to me :)

Lol...that's not an A hole thing to say at all but nah I think I'll keep it for now and it'll make a nice winter project. It's definitely a Margay, and the right spindle is definitely bent after looking at it closer. Margay has 12° replacements on their site so I'm coming up with my first order...

I just snagged this thing off Craigslist for $175 and now I'm trying to figure out what I bought and figure out how it will be set up before I start ordering parts. I ask if it's a Margay because I saw an old 2009 thread here where someone was trying to identify a frame that looked identical...

Just wanted to say a quick Hi to all the locals. I've been into anything motorized since I was about 8, 32 now. I just grabbed a $175 racing kart project which I think was a pretty good buy, so I'll most likely be hanging around a lot with plenty of noob questions. I've had quite a few karts in...
