I agree with the fact that your arms are different length and the fact that they pivot at different places. I would also like to see long video, if you could one from side and one showing the sprocket and clutch. I believe your problem is with your chain, JS or clutch. I do not believe it lies within the suspension at all.

For those of you eager to scrutinize a longer video clip, yes I will make one. Perhaps, one with a speed meter. Hopefully, with go kart gurus around the globe, this problem will eventually be solved.

Is it just me or do these shocks look a bit steep..
Can't you get a friend to video you driving the kart over a speed bump....

Just re watched the video...
Did you build the kart. If so how much play is there In the shock bracket at the wheel end
it looks like its rattling inside the bracket and not engaging the stroke of the shock..

1) Yes, a longer video clip is coming up.

2) Yes, I designed and built the kart. The design goal is to have 4-wheel independent suspension along with a single wheel drive to bypass a differential axle.

3) I am not sure what you mean but the bouncing involves both the shock and the swing arm. The bouncing is defined as the swing arm moves up and down swiftly (I would estimate it about >30 Hz).

This is exactly what happens when a group of men cant solve a problem we insult each other to pass the time. And I do say.
If you gentlemen don't stop insulting the state of British grammer. I'll get Jeeves to do you in. :2guns: :2guns: :censored:

As soon as I've finished my crumpets... :thumbsup:
