Kia ora and merry Xmas from New Zealand.

My first cart has got to the frustrating point! My set up is on 13" diameter wheels with briggs 9hp through torque converter with 10 teeth. Now everyone tells me 6:1 is a good ratio but I am having trouble finding a 60 tooth sprocket to fit my hub. I can however easily get sprockets from 48 to 52 teeth. Do you think the higher ratio will be ok?



Thanks, info and parts in our little paradise are not easy to get

You could setup a jackshaft if you have the room rather than trying to find a 60 tooth sprocket. You have measurements of the hub maybe someone can help in your search.

With the 9 hp and 13" diameter tires I would go with the 48 tooth , it would give you about 33 MPH at 3600 RPM with the 30 series CVT

If you can get me citizenship I'll bring you any sprocket you want.
To live in NZ is my dream, stringent immigration standards are the only thing stopping me from moving.

Yes, we are very lucky to live in such a wonderful spot, I won't even start on the climate,fishing,hunting etc. Let me know when you finally get a visa, I will send you a shopping list ;-)
