Major Grandpa/20250918_083558.jpgGrandson project done and road worthy. Scoots and has lights. Pictures include its beginning as a rusty hulk through media blasting, cracked frame weld, prime paint, new tires/tubes/engine, 12V light bar/tail lights/under glow lights/USB jacks. Andy's the hit of the neighborhood and learned a lot every step of the way.

Thanks to everyone on the forum for your kind help!20250921_101921.jpg20250926_145727.jpg20251019_130919.jpg20251108_104904.jpg20251121_112132.jpgIMG_3195.jpgIMG_5255(1)~2.jpg

Your pedals are backwards. 🙃 In the before-pic they were "factory correct" and provide a perfect pocket or rest for the foot and at a very comfortable angle but blah blah blah. Otherwise kart looks good and the lights really help the black on black on black low visibility.

How fast does it go?

Awesome job on the project! That is exactly what this is all about. Hard work, teaching and an awesome project he will never forget his entire life! Proud grandpa moment, and a super excited grandson ready to show off his hard work with some ripping around the neighborhood!!!!!!

Whoah, you're right!! Doesn't seem to bother him yet, but we'll definitely change that once it's in for the winter. Thanks for the tip. As far as speed goes, we'll have to time it when he gets it into a wide open paved area. There's an app for that too somewhere.. We haven't planned any engine mods yet, he's pretty thrilled with it as it is now, off the shelf HF Predator 212.

Dont listen to him about the pedals. He says mine are backwards too.
It about comfort.
Turn them around and the face moves further from the seat.
I flipped mine all 4 ways and im still wrong. Lol.
