I'm getting there. The right, rear tire is done for now.

Here's the arm. Not ready for the wheel yet. Here it is running (low quality video for some reason): https://youtube.com/shorts/MJCfwkrvWO0?si=FMQSzOnFBRjzHNlo

Getting the rear knuckle done.

With all the extra stuff you added it makes sense it would be heavier.

Maybe 600. At the moment I think it's about 450 lbs

You mean the animation? Blender. It's free and very good.

I made them from 1 5/8", 0.12" thick tubing.

Here's what I'm working on now.

Ha, yeah. It's big. I might start calling it a buggy from now on.

Oh, really? That's encouraging.

Oh, it's that simple? Okay then. The engine puts out 18.5 ft/lbs at 2500 RPM, so the final torque (including with the 23" tires) should be 106 ft/lbs, which sounds much better than 23.

I've not completed it yet, but I weighed it with a scale on the front and back, and they add up to about 350-400 lbs. It'll be about 450-500 when done. I'm 240 (chucky booooy). The gear ratio I plan on is about , 10 teeth on the 40 Series to a 60 tooth axle gear, so a ratio of 6:1. I'm also...

What are some weights, or even and average weight, for single-seat off-road gokart/buggy? For something around 500 lbs, how would the Predator 420cc 18.5 ft/lbs and 13 HP engine do?

I've been working working working on it. Taking a while. About how long does it takes you guys to make a go-kart or to finish a project?

This is what I've got so far.
