Kart W/KX250

You were warned

With the correct mount setup, it will fit, as long as you know what you're doing...

To start off, find yourself a piece of wood, plywood or sheet steel large enough & strong enough to hold the engine, clamp it to the frame & set the engine in position; then you can guage how it will fit...

I'm 6'4" and finally got to ride my kx125 powered shifter kart I built over the last year.. I made my mount from square stock I bought at Home Depot... Gearing was the questionable guess.. I went with 18/26 on the 11x7.10-5 tires has decent pick up and I can still clutch it and brake them loose..

Motor position and seat position are crucial.. Knowing your also gonna have a clutch and shifter some where in the mix.. Let alone right arm room for driving without hitting a motor or exhuast..

Get a seat if you don't have one and position the seat and motor for rough idea's

Update

I have the motor now. It took a bit longer to get due to my friend being busy with moving. The motor honestly looks to big for my frame and im not sure if it will fit. I have to do some measurements because I still need a mount what do you guys think about fitment.

Nice looking motor, its so clean.
Check the link I posted for a motor mount.
The mounts are specifically made for each motor. If you can buy it now, that would make mock up a lot easier as it would put the motor almost exactly where it needs to be.

You can fine tune everything else after the motor is in its final resting place.
