indeed i will. i am very excited about my first build and CANNOT wait until it is done.
i have not bought tires yet. i'm going to get my engine mount and throttle linkage sorted out first. got a mounting plate on the way to my house from Northern Tool.
i'm thinking about a month, TOPS, and it will be finished. just need throttle linkage, a complete hydraulic brake setup, a seat, tires and mount my engine to the frame and i'm ready to ride.
oh yea, and pick a color for my kart. i wanted to go gunmetal or something like it. but finding out i have a retro looking kart and some vintage wheels, i might go to blue or something.

i dont quite understand BMI's tire sizes. i found tires on out2win.com. im going to try to find a deal on ebay for my two front tires. and i havnt looked at tubes yet.
as far as getting them mounted. hopefully wont be hard cause i have two piece wheels.

besides that;i just noticed that the tires i took off the 6in wheels that came with the kart are for a 5in wheel. why would the previous owner do this?? also the front tubes the person was running was one 11x6.00-6 and one 11x4.50-6. they were running the same size tires up front, 11x5.50-5.
