sounds nice!!! i'm thinking about doing a similar biga$$ engine powered thing... i was thinking of doing either this: http://cache.jalopnik.com/assets/resources/2008/01/Honda_600_Barstool.jpg or aonther shopping cart LOL

anyway keep us posted!

aaand you should turbo it...

you read my mingd about the turbo its air cools and 44000 mkiles so i dont want to kill it

 

[modelengineer]

No turbo, but it would be better on a larger kart imo. If the kart is too light it will just be ridiculous with the wheelspinning.

For offroad, it should have suspension, or some big balloon tires,

 

[solomon]

agreed. That wotor is good as is too haha. throw at least some 28 inchers on it

Found a sproket that fits the out put shaft 520 13t

Ive opted for of road I want suspention but unsure how

You could also build something in between road and offroad...
If you build your suspension in a way you can adjust the height of your cart, it would be great...

Imagine you driving 130 mph!!! But that's quite dangerous if this is the first kart you build
