I use expensive chain lube on my MTB, but I asked my neighbor what he uses on his motorcycles he used to have because that would probably be a better choice for the chain on my go kart.
Well he said his bikes were actually belt drive and I was like ZOMG thats perfect!
I already have a belt based torque converter, but then it switched to a chain to connect the jackshaft to the axle. Are there kits to convert that final chain to a belt? I don't use my kart much but I still want to keep it well maintained. But I mostly use it around the 'hood while it's snowing. I like the idea of converting that to a belt. Is that even a thing though? Does this axle to jackshaft connection have a specific name? If you google belt drive go kart, all you get are torque converters.
