    Late 90's or early 2000's 60cc shifter kart clean-up project...need help!

    Thanks for all the replies! Can you run tubes in wider racing slicks? There was an earlier post that said they thought tubes wouldn't work. I did some searching and can't find tubes for my tire sizes. Perhaps there are tubes that fit a range of tire sizes that would work? Assuming a tube...

    Late 90's or early 2000's 60cc shifter kart clean-up project...need help!

    Go Kart Noob from SW Idaho

    Howdy all! Looks like a great community here. I'm a relatively mechanically inclined 50 year-old with no go-kart experience, suddenly finding myself with 2 go-karts sitting in my garage. How did this happen (I ask myself daily)? My 13 year old boy told my dad it would be cool to have a...
