not sure what the cart had for returning the brake and throttle before, but there was nothing there. so we added some return springs, and some pull limiters and stoppers on the rods. so you can't just press the throttle so far it breaks lol...

[random-strike]

also had to to make a new rod for the throttle, it broke while i was trying to modify it

used a kill switch off one of the mini bikes original engines

not sure why i took this picture i guess you can see the stock muffler lol

gotta take the thing apart and hit the frame with some gloss black.

also this mini bike is the most fun of the two i have assembled, its weird how it has pretty good suspension on it

i found out that these springs are basically mountain bike springs, i bought one for $17 that is supposed to have 1500lbs of resistance or some shit. the difference is massive from the one that came with the bike

Next project

Going to extend frame quite a bit

Got motor mounted, needed a bigger pattern but barely had room on existing plate

Can swap motors still

[random-strike]

i should have the parts i need, it didn't have a linkage that could be hooked to a cable out of the box lol

love this thread, wish i had the room to tinker with a cart or bike

[random-strike]

Yeah it's fun I sold the little mini bikes and bought a new roller from gopowersports

The go kart is insanely fast prob 60mph lol

The clutch won't hold the power so you have to take off kinda easy once it catches you take off like crazy

It's faster than a lot of cars lol

It needs a "torque converter" cvt thing

[fastivab6tg25mr]

60 on a go-kart is crazy fast!

The go kart is awesome

[random-strike]

Better throttle is really nice now
