Honda g200

[BolokanFury]

Hi, I have a Honda g200 but there is no throttle assembly, I have searched online but can't find a whole assembly, I am thinking of making some kind of bodged throttle but also don't know where to start.

The engine runs sweet but the only way to rev the engine is by the little throttle switch on top of the carb which isn't very convenient as it's so close to the exhaust.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi and welcome..
the g200 isn't too popular for karts since the exhast points right at your neck in rear engine karts, which is a bit unpleasant

Anyways, you shouldn't control any unmodified engine by controlling the carburetor buterfly directly.

reason being: the engines are governed... and that governor must not be overreved

So usually you tell the governor what speed you like and it takes control over the butterfly.
The governor (inside the engine) has it's shaft and lever poking out below the exhaust.

To get an idea what'S missing and what's still left,

would you remond to take a pic of that side of the engine to show us,
from a low angle ideally so we can see what's going on below.

It'd be a bit inconvenient put perfect if you could remove exhaust entirely for that pic.
at leas remove the airfilter case (that should be relatively easy)
since below that there' should be the original governor linkage which is the most essential part of it all.

I found the linkage on google. it's about 15$ https://www.amazon.com/Shioshen-Thr...t=&hvlocphy=9018897&hvtargid=pla-634803048142

Sounds like the OP has one of the older/flathead G200 model engines that Honda made back in the 1970's/80's, not a GC190 or GX200 model.

The G200 looked like this:
