    Clutch seized?

    Got it all taken apart and put back together. The drive had some internal damage that my brother in law was able to help me repair and allowed it to fully sink back in and the belt now sets properly which allows the engine to idle and not move when stopped. Thank you everyone for the insight...

    @Denny should I do a service on the clutch before ordering the comet belt or do you think it will be needed regardless?

    exhaust adapter for hammerhead 150cc

    From looking over that diagram it looks like you might also need a muffler clamp which was mentioned on the second link. It doesn't look like you have a place on the muffler to attach the bolt to.

    Go Kart for a Big Guy

    From one big guy to another I can say that the struggle is real. I'm 6'3" and 250 pounds and was in your position a few months ago. The best option for me turned out to be a Manco Dingo with a 13hp engine. A quick search in your area I was able to find one that might interest you. It's a...

    no place to ride

    Used to ride near rivers since there are few people to complain. Also road in parking lots of stores that were out of business and were on some very traveled roads. Most go karts are not allowed on city streets because they have no lights or indicators for starters. But a piece of private...
