slomon is right if you take that off and run your engine full it will fly apart and cause serious damage

what you did isn't removing the governor all you did was bypass it (bad)
you need to take the side cover off and remove the internal weights

Thats probably fine, hes just adjusting the governor, not disabling it and the gear probably wont fly apart. He'd be lucky to get more than 4200 with that "mod".
However, it is still better to pull the internal workings of the governor. I know you were trying to help, but posting a video with wrong information could do more harm than good.

Very simple, but you can see if they gear did fly apart your engine would be in trouble.

Removing the throttle stop screw is good for about 4000 RPM. Engine is safe without the screw in there. You can also make it go the other way. A good thing to do to your friends go kart right before a race!
I've had my gov. overridden to 4500RPM for over a year without any bad results. Only I added another spring to do so instead of loosening the screw.
Also, I would think by loosening the screw it wouldnt do anything? It would give you short burst of extra RPM's, but then the gov would still take over. I could very well be wrong though

No need to be rude, people. But, Khank, you should retitle the video, so the viewers are led to believe you are making an adjustment. There's too much incorrect info on the 'net as it is...
that aint nice and why you say that
