So, it's now in primer & you still haven't sorted the roll bar

I still haven't had access to a bender... Really annoying. Either way, I still need to weld in some stuff, add some supports, make fuel tank support, seat, etc,...
So once all of that is done I do some final paiting. The reason I painted so early (while it's not done yet) is because the frame started rusting pretty bad and I wanted to give it a protecting layer. The weather was also good so I said; why not?

Hope you like the pics!

Looking pretty sweet mate! Like the colour scheme.
But seriously, sort that roll bar, it's not even symmetrical

and the pointed tip will impale you if you flip and the kart lands on you!

And... she's done!

Well, done... it's actually never completely finished.
What's on my plan to do in the next 2 weeks:
-New axle
-New sprocket
-New front tyres (one WITH bearings)
-New rear tyres (to fit new 1" axle)

Nice

So, how does she go with all the bugs sorted out?

I showed this gokart on school, for a whole day, for a big amount of people! Everything went just great!

We had no malfunctions so far. We drove about 8 hours (a whole day long!)

She's done! (still a few stuff to do though, but I consider it done! )
(lol, you don't see much difference with the previous photo I posted)

Also got a video!
