Yup China calipers, will try some more tomorrow

Anything different about bleeding these brakes from standard auto brakes? Not making any progress. (Entire system is new)

Front handled great. Did some hot laps around the property about 75% and zero issues.

Did some carb tuning. Landed on a 220 main jet for now.

Golf cart steering rack. Fairly cheap, but if it can handle a heavier machine with a couple overweight dudes. It should work on a gokart just fine lol

Thank you, threw a quick thin coat of oil based enamel on it. Got it assembled and tested drive was successful.

Too busy working on it to document progress.

Mayden voyage was a disaster, horrible bumpsteer. I was afraid of that. I knew the tierod placement was horrible. 2 weeks from my trip and need to start over Going to kinda copy red beards garage. Yerf dog front end

Like an idiot I designed everything around my 780 driven being mounted outboard. There is no reverse wound spring available. I will need to redo both jackshafts, motor mounts and exhaust mount.........

Not really sure. Once this is functional, I have several other projects waiting for me. Then either redo the front of this buggy or build another one with irs and a v twin. So it's looking like probably not lol

Been rushing to get this done, so that I have 2 weeks to test,tune& fix before my trip. Waiting on a reverse wound spring for the driven. Master cylinder was full of rust so I ordered a complete new brake system. Air cleaner needs a bracket built on top of the engine. Engine starts...

Yeah I think the paint formulas are changing somehow. Maybe getting cheaper

Front end is buttoned up. Got the jackshafts and chains installed And yes half my swing arm is painted. Spray tip clogged up. Last 4 different spray cans have all clogged up on me. All different brands. I've never had that problem before.

Wasn't happy with how the steering rack was supported. Redid it. It's better. But not ideal.

Mocked up the 2nd jackshaft today and started to mess with the tierod ends

2 steps forward, 1 step back. Seems that's how these things go. Finished the brake bracket mount. Will be primed and installed tomorrow. Altered driver side shock mount to make clearance for my driven unit. Tomorrow the buggy should be more picture worthy.

Rear shocks arrived today and installed. They feel softer than the chinese ones that were on there. About 2ish inches of rear travel vs 1/2" when I bounce my weight on the rear of the luggage rack. Not as soft as I was hoping but better. So it'll have to do. Front tie rod end heims arrived...
