Is this worth $600

[6.2]

Here's what it looks like.

And it's a 5hp briggs, not 5.5 my bad.
Also has a digital hour meter and tach.
450$

Yeah looks pretty cool man If its got a torque converter and all the bugs worked out so it rides/stops awesome, I think its worth that price. (but if it just had a centrifugal clutch, maybe $300-$400 range)

Digital tach/hour meters are $16 on Ebay. It is a good looking kart, I'd pay $200 for it.

Are you american or Canadian though. Things like this are more $$ in Canada. Hard to get them cheap.

@ander
I'd most likely swap out the engine and crap for a 440 I've got. So not to concerned about that. Will use it till it dies then swap

That could be quite a while...

Haha not the way I'd drive it ha

Any estimates on speed? I'll post a pic of the gears in a second.

 

[6.2]

Idk if you could guess but here's a pic. I font know much about this crap haha

 

[anderkart]

Just a guess but it looks like around a 6 to 1 ratio, with around 15" tires, and I'm assuming the engine still has the governor hooked up.

So, like maybe a 20 to 25mph top speed on hard/flat ground as long as the engine runs strong and the rider isnt too heavy.

i will point out the tires are all pretty worn...

25mph so that's 40 km/h for us Canadians. That's perfect that's the speed limit in town haha

Looks like it has a cent clutch to me, and not a torque converter

 

[6.2]

What's the difference lmao. Like I said, I dont know anything really bout these engines.

 

[landuse]

Have a look HERE for torque converters, and HERE for cent clutches.

If you do a google search, you will get some more info. This site also has loads of info.

 

[6.2]

Yeah I've been browsing this place a bit. Only on an iPhone though so it's a bit hard on the eyes sometimes haha

 

[landuse]

I know. Using a phone is not the easiest. I have a Nokia N95 8GB phone, and the screen is reasonably big, but I still have to scroll from side to side, and it is not the fastest eather.

 

[6.2]

Yea it works great for a quick google search when out but for browsing it's not the best.

Thanks to everyone who posted info in this thread, very helpful.
Looking at a yerf dog. As well, made a new thread.
