Hello all Found a Honda 2Hp Horz Shaft Engine locally on CL. Says good shape, like new, includes pully for $50. Just wondering if that is a good deal. Thought it might be a good one for a scooter. Going to look at it tomorrow.

Hello all. My sons go kart has a HF Blue 6.5 engine. He is really freaked out by loud noise (probably due to his ear problems as a baby). Does anyone have any recommendations on making this thing as quite as possible. Right now it just has the stock muffler.

Well I finally got my sons go kart finished enough for a test drive today. Brake rod and Gas rod made to match this weekend. Still have a little finish welding to do and add some support for some type of painted nose (with flames for my son). First, according to the calculations, the gear...

Well I got the rear axle housing welded in this weekend along with replacing some other metal on the front of the frame. It had been broken and welded poorly long ago. Not anymore, straight, square and solid. Still have a little more welding and cleanup to do. Also have to make the motor...

Today. I got my new axle housing done. I got some nice "C" channel steel at the local scrap metal dealer. It could not have been a better match for the bearing mounting flanges. The axle mount turned out better than I expected. I cut the old axle out of the kart frame and got the new...

Hello all I just wanted to get some opinions and maybe see some of your setups. The kart I got had rod linkage for the band brake and a rod/cable combo for the fuel. The fuel rod went about 3/4 back where it connected to a cable that worked the fuel lever on the motor. I would like to go...

Well, last week I picked up and older Carter Bros kart (1435) for $250. New Tires, New Engine (HF Blue 6.5), New Pulley clutch and rebuilt jackshaft housing. This kart is a little unique in that it has a v-belt driving the jackshaft instead of a chain. Well it needed a few fine touches so I...

Hello all New here. Just picked up a go kart off CL. Has a newly installed engine from HF (the 96549). Seems from the forum that this is a great engine for the price. Starts nicely, and seems to run good, but very rattley (if thats a word). I cant tell if its the clutch or just general...

New guy - few questions -pics added Hello all. Glad to find this forum. If anyone has any other good kart resources, please let me know. Anyway, tonight I picked up what I think is a pretty good deal on an older go-kart for my son. He is a tall 5 year old. I thought a small car of his...
