    Dammit, Pancho keeps making (monetary and practical) sense. Two seater karts are the way to go. Maybe it keeps more intensity in the activity because the passenger will always be jonesing for their turn. How many grandkids ya got?

    I wonder if it was discovered, while these buggies were still being made (or afterwards), that the axles were “defective” or the weak link that kept breaking all the time and that’s why there’s no spare parts. People bought up all the spares after a time. But then again the Deuce is long out of...

    Show us the whole shaft and the broken end. It looks like a clean break maybe. If it's just a plain shaft, maybe it can be fabricated somewheres....

    You might look into grafting-in the rear axle assembly from a trashed UTV or larger Chinese buggy or something.

    Oh man, good to see an old Deuce. Those were a cut above the rest of the regular "karts" but it really is an early UTV/ATV.. I don't recall seeing too many of those around, like here on the forum, so maybe it is a big deal. A fairly rare bird to me anyway. Good luck on the parts, man 😬. I'd say...

    Quiro saber que modelo es me lo encontré

    Let me reanimate this old corpse of a thread... ⚰️ I have strong reasons to believe it is a somewhat mangled Rupp kart. A narrow hoop 1960's-era Rupp, possibly a Dart Kart. The wheels are interesting, they appear to be vintage Margay Super-Light wheels... Always post more than one photo, 5...

    I bought one this evening. A fake Chonda like in the first post and just for the purty colors. 🤩 I will let you all know how it is, what it's like and do a mini review when it arrives. I know it has a 20mm crankshaft-PTO so will stick a measuring caliper on it to confirm and find a 20mm bore...

    One Bad Piglet

    How's Piglet? To keep pace with TNThomas, you should add a bag rack to the wheelie bar. His trike's got storage, bro. 🤓

    Replacing Cast Rims on a Manco 405

    Gentlemen, gentlemen let's keep it productive. By the way, something's missing from this thread.... I say go for it. I realize there are some different tire/wheel combos at HF. I am talking about the cheapest pneumatic knobby wheels they sell. This guy used some HF wheels (he claims) but...

    Oversteer - Understeer - Lack of Grip - Bouncing - Bogging

    I stole this with a copy/paste because sites and pages have a bad habit of going *poof*. https://linsellspeedshop.com/kart-troubleshooting There are many ways to describe the handling of your kart, this is a guide to help you fix those issues. Oversteer (Turn Entry) “The back slides/the kart...

    Three wheel mini-bike thing.

    That wheelie bar is a tour de force of engineering, along with the rest of the trike. Superrrrb.

    Hard to pull/crank predator 420

    I would ensure the lash cap is still there. I remember my 17hp Briggs had one for each valve stem. Kaboom! Seconded. The clearance(s) will inadvertently change as you tighten/loosen the nuts CartMan, and you have to hold the outer nut (with a box end wrench, probably the best way) precisely...

    Hard to pull/crank predator 420

    With your feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve end, it should fit snugly (not tightly) with a little bit of drag. Are you using the right feeler gauges? Most feeler gauges have both metric and decimal inch printed on the gauges. Make sure you are using the right ones for your...
