Need assistance identifying gokart model. (Newby)

[Jdjesse]

Hello, I'm new here and would like to show off my modded gokart and also ask for assistance on what the brand this chassis is. Thanks in advance

Last two pics are a Manco model 485

I know that, top one cant find a single number on the kart

Looks like one of those Chinese roketa? karts. Or something Chinese anyway.

Oh, and this is a family forum, so please no foul language

The green one is indeed one of those generic chinese gy6 karts...
like a twister hammerhead or carter talon or Kandi and alike
Your missing the engine subframe though... (gy6 150cc)

it's closest most recent relative is likely the XT150Gk8 (maybe GK6) Kinroad

PS without a serial number it's nearly impossible to find make and model.
at least take a pic of all the decals... sometimes a typo can identify the chinese company selling them.

I need the rear axle and a pin for that go kart. any idea where i can get them?! they just shredded at the sprocket today and the axle is slightly bent

What pin are you referring to?

 

[Jdjesse]

What pin are you referring to?

The keyway pin and I was able to find replacements via http://www.gokartsupply.com/axles.htm

 

[mckutzy]

Ahhhh... A Key, as it is referred to.

I have the engine and subframe, missing nearly every bolt but they are there. I will take pictures of everything once I get some time and post em up, thanks for the help so far.

Here are more pictures of the kart I need help getting parts and identifying

Sadly the second sticker is an exact copy of the Honda Warning hangtag for ATVs...
which indeed is just another proof that it's nothing but generic chinese stuff you're dealing with.

And yes that holds true for what some people think are US companies (acting as nothing but namegiver and importer)

Anywhoo..

first sticker is the EXACT sticker (incl the codenumber on the bottom)
that can be found on a Baja DN150 (yet another one of the aforementioned chinese karts with a US brandname) likely any BAJA labelled kart..

but your's is not a Baja.. at least none I've seen looked anything like yours

Sad.. but that's not as helpful as I hoped it'd be..

Linhai sold Buggies on their own though... under the Xingling brand.
Maybe it's one of those (not too far fetched assumption.. not exactly rooted in anything but your engine and the alikeness of these generikarts [one word ])

Anywhoo..
if your centercap on the steering wheel looks like a volume knob and as a four arm spiral,
it left the same factory as Ace Powersports (MaXXam) and Xingling, Roketa and at least two others which names I cannot remember atm.

Wow so much information, would you know where I could possibly get a generic manual of something with the same drivetrain? That's all I would need.. otherwise I thought of possibly making my own predator 420cc setup with what I have..

Thank you for all your help and knowledge so far,

score, after about 5 hours of searching though chinese karts i found one with nearly exactly the same parts minus the different front end. http://u.b5z.net/i/u/10216531/f/RaiderClassicOwnersManual.pdf
