[ilgokart]

hey i am planing to build a go kart this summer and the most realistc place for me to source parts for it is mostly ebay.de
so ive found this engine:http://www.ebay.de/itm/6-5-PS-4-8-kW-Benzinmotor-Standmotor-Kartmotor-Motor-4-Takt-1-Zylinder-IN-13019-/201728122237?hash=item2ef7eedd7d:g:R4IAAOSwrhBZCuGo
or this kit intended for bicycles:http://www.ebay.de/itm/262946428645?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
For the wheels Ive found this:http://www.ebay.de/itm/Rad-260-x-85mm-3-00-4-Luftrad-Sackkarre-mit-Kugellager-130kg-Reifen-Laufrad-/302127242814?hash=item46582fde3e:g:6CIAAOSwx6pYr04I and Id like some feedback if they will work with my plan of an off road kart(meaning riding in dirt trails) Thank you in advance

You will what to find some good tires for a off road kart, those there won't be vary good they will fall apart on dirt, maybe tires for a kids quad would be good.

You should check out torque converters there good for dirt karts

For your links:
Yes, NO and NOOOOOOO!!! (Ne, wirklich, Finger weg von den Rädern da!!)

Get some Kart wheels, and depending on the task at hand
(I read off road... you're talking mud dirt and gravel, or sticks stones and hills off road?)
the former can be done with simple knobbies, the latter would need some more sophisticated
Wheelery

You'll have a hard time finding Fun-Kart wheels in germany,
Mowerwheels are close though
5" fronts 6" rears should give you a nice collection of tyres to pick from IMHO

personally.. I'd say find them on kleinanzeigen.ebay instead...
OR buy them on the other side of the pond (sorry, but that's still the best source )

Clone engines have got cheap! That first link you posted is a nice deal. Well that or I'm out of touch with prices.

No worries it is a good deal..
it's about the same what our cross atlantic friends pay for their predators

found a set of 8' steel atv rims for 38 euros which I think is a great price
