I also added frame gussets up near the forks oh, and I did a quarter inch thick motor plate oh, I forgot I actually used thick wall tubing for the pegs, I did gussets on a bike.

I have snapped two of those pegs off. And when you do that it leaves a gouge in the frame. A huge gouge... If you have access to a welder I would reinforce the pegs with gussets oh, that's what I did and that solved my problem.

Here is my thread and I have posted the tubing sizes. http://www.diygokarts.com/vb/showthread.php?t=28416

Yes pictures. Keep the stock jackshaft, I just tried my eBay Chinese torque converter, and it was just a tiny bit too small. So I rebuilt the current driven unitI. The jackshaft bearings are 20 mm, and then the jackshaft is tapered down and threaded... accommodate 5/8" ish driven.

I assume that means you bought a true Comet torque converter unit. I do know the Chinese ones are about that 16 mm. I have a very similar Kart and will be encountering this issue tonight so I'll let you know if I find. Cuz I'm going to put an eBay torque converter on my American Sports work wasp

Bahahah so true about the flag... I didn't even notice. I paid $300. Still worth it in my mind considering people in Arizona think they have gold and try to get top dollar. Just noticed upon further examination I'll need to rebuild the driven unit... but I should have all the parts.

Got a good deal on offer up today... American Sports Works Dragonfly go kart 3170. Little faded from being outside in the Arizona sun, but overall good shape. Slight tear in the headrest upholstery .Could use new rear tires, some new jackshaft bearings, bleed brakes, and a few Nuts and Bolts...

Agreed... I just bought a Coleman and bt200x oh, but I plan on turning into a flat track bike, so I will find out if this exhaust pipe fits this frame also.

Hells yeah!

Some pics...

I felt like that camshaft did great from 4000 to 8000 with 1.2 rockers... I cannot compare it to the CL 1, but I can compare to the CM grind which I do like the CM grind more.

Another loop brought to you from Robertsons torque tubes. https://youtu.be/gtANMk1EAHY

Cool... I like the Colemans.

Very cool!

Welcome... Nice little resto project.

I have no idea what happened or how he passed. But he was definitely a true do-it-yourself kind of guy. I'm sure you will be missed by many, definitely sad.

Ride in peace... Ryan / Supermannotorious I can't believe what I was seeing on Facebook today... Even though I have never met him personally, we have talked on the phone a number of times, texted, and always talked about meeting up and hanging out. I guess daily life just go in the way... He...

They definitely help with stability. Here is my most recent one from ebay... https://youtu.be/RqU0lRPpmAw
