Do you think this is a good kart?

your going to drive me crazy with all these pics of awesome buggies! it would be awesome to drive this thing around with my friends on ATVs and dirt bikes! if only i had some more cash and parts!

do you have any more info on the ody pictured?

Nope, But it is not stock. I can nice mods all thru it. Works rear shocks for one.

The thing about FL350's is. You can find them running for $2000 but everything lose and bad for the most part. FL350 parts are not cheap like the fl250's are. So your looking at about $1000 to restore them. Then again you can find a nice well cared for one for $3000 rang. Sick ones for like $3500 and up.

For this reason the FL250 will never be much more than $1500 to $1800 for perfect ones. If you have the money you just jump up to a FL350. So you can say there is a cap on FL250's no matter how nice they are.

Some day I will have an FL350 or a true Stadium Light racer.

Every now and then you see basket case FL350 pop up for $1000. But it takes real money to restore them.

expensive! 1,000 for a basket case! it would take me a year to scramble $1,000.

i would be more interested in an fl250, but for that money, i'm going to want rear suspension.

anyway, i'm still not sure i have anywhere good to ride...

does the fl350 use a-arms front and rear? does it use a-arms at all. the pilot is all double a-arm right?

was looking at my sidewinder plans again, those plans plus the 550 sled engine on cl for $500 is mighty tempting. still too expensive, maybe i should just not think about price and just save up money and buy one part at a time, and maybe this time next year i would have a buggy? still wouldn't have a great place to ride it, maybe i would have to go into the woods with my chainsaw (chainsaws are fun!). i gotta stop drifting off to other projects, already have like 5 i'm working on.

p.s. sorry for jacking your thread!
