Yes, you can buy it ...It'll have a new paint job on it and 2 new front tires and yes it takes gas and does a certified 25.6 mph and you can have it for only $395 and you'll have to pick it up in Phx. Az.

For the new kart we ordered them from BMI...Never really thought about safety issues with HF rims thanks r97...

I do have an air compressor and I do pump it to the max...This is happening on the kart I bought last month ...For the new kart I WILL NOT pump it up as much and see how that works...:)

It's all over the top of the tire , it wears out extremely fast , we have it as straight as possible , I am going to try a set of heavy duty tires from HF and see if those wear out any better,,,

You are right about the weight , they don't cost that much , I'll take the speed and just get new tires

Is there a way to keep the front tires from wearing out so fast , or is that Normal because it's such a simple set-up? Also yesterday we got the parts in from BMI hopefully we'll have it running by this week-end I am excited , I think more so than my grandson is , after all the kart is for...

That is one sweet Kart...I am sure you will have many hours of enjoyment with it

On the calculator I used on here gave me this answer: 15" tires , 3600 rpm , 60t sprocket , 12t clutch = 32moh...If I get that I'll be happy...The calculator is pretty accurate according to my GPS...On the go-kart I have now I have the same set-up with the exception of a 72 t sprocket and...

This is what we ordered last Saturday...1" live axle, 60t sprocket , chain and all necessary stuff to finish up te rear end, according the calculator I should get around 32mph and if the 60t sprocket dosen't move my fat a** we'll replace it with a 72t and take off the governor...Hopefully we'll...

Nice!!! When do you expect to finish it? We have decided to oder: 15" tires , 60t sprocket and according to the speed calculator it'll give us 32 mph which is plenty when you're that low to the ground and then if we feel we need more speed we'll take off the governor which will give 45 mph if...

r_hez do you have the governoor off of your kart? What kind of set up do you have on it?

I thinkk I will leave the Gorvernor ALONE , there was 1 word in your answer that kind of scare me "DEATH" ...I will look at BMI for the TAV2 torque converter and go with that and still keep my kidney or have to sell blood...Thanks for the quick reply and add the converter to my parts list...Bob

Well I bought an extended warranty for 2 yrs on the engine for $20 that'll replace it if anything goes wrong with it....I don't know what a Governor is or where it's at on the engine or how to remove it and with the warranty I'm willing to try it...I really do appreciate your knowledge and...

r_chez, now it's starting to make sense...We built this frame to accomadate the seat that I had bought on Ebay 6 yrs ago, it was up in the attic collecting dust , so we put it it on the ground , got a piece of chalk and did an outline of the frame to fit the seat and yes I do see the...

We will be using the kart mainly to ride in the street where I live and also finding an empty cement parking lot just to have fun with my 7 yr. old grandson , as far as clearnce goes the minimum would be ok , we have a kart now with a 6.5 hp on it that goes 25.4 mph (per gps) It has a large...
