Not much progress today. I think im gonna work on getting the steering and brakes setup tomorrow. I'll have to order the pulleys on monday or tuesday. Eventually, im gonna make a dash panel type thing with a analog tach, bike speedo, and if i feel like going all out and stupid, a gear indicator.

very cool! but slicks? it looks like an offroad cart

It started as a street kart 4 years ago. Over time its become more of an offroad buggy type thing, although i still mainly ride it on road. Im gonna get some off road tires after im done with this project and hopefully take it to my great uncles farm this winter.

that jackshaft setup looks a lot like the one i set up for my shifter kart

I guess you could call this a shifter kart of sorts.

Im really questioning the bearings for this jackshaft. I gotta get some new bearings for my front wheels so ill just order some for the jackshaft while im at it. Pulleys are supposed to be in on tuesday. Im leaving for iceland next monday so i gotta get this thing done this week.
