Buildlog first homebuilt UPDATE with vid
This will be a hopefully frequently updated thread showing my progress on my homemade kart. Some of this was covered in my introduction but i realize a lot of people dont read that.
Power is most likely coming from a lil 2hp briggs and stratton unless i can find anything bigger. Gear ratio is gonna be about 8 to 1 maybe a little less.
Right now I have only spent $35 on this kart and most of that was for the bearings, Im hoping on keeping the price pretty low, for now it will be a belt clutch but I may get a cft clutch if I get a more powerful engine.
Steering wheel doesnt have to stay chain its interchangeable, I think its pretty cool but its also really heavy so I plan on having a much lighter one.
Any advice would be appreciated, I know the wheels should be changed, my friend says he'll give me some soon but for now these will work for testing.
If you want any specifics just ask, I'm not sure what the normal measurements to cover are. For now heres my progress pics.
