Our backyard shifter kart is insane! We full send our home built shifter kart, but not without a TON of reliability issues due to the setup simply making way too much power for the chassis. We have gone far beyond how much power a go kart can handle. Every 2 or 3 laps we have issues, whether it be the chassis breaking, the fender coming off, or bolts shaking loose on the engine. The lack of suspension is uncomfortable around the track, but this thing sure is fast!

Yes . I would love to see more on this project
Try and reinforce but still keep it lightweight and small. It looks like a fun ride guys. Love it.
Great laughter 🙂 🙂
All of that stuff broke because you talked about how well the first test went 🤣 but I definitely want to do a similar setup on my kart I’ve loved the content on this thing so far
You don’t need a compression release . It’s a spare part you only need it to pull start.
Full suspension upgrade for the badboi
Probably a good time ot get some real engineering in play with some pushrod suspension 😉
Its vibrating like that because there is no rod and piston to counterbalance the crank on the quad motor.
This needs a custom-built frame and suspension…………….this thing is awesome
This is one of the greatest things you've ever done. I see questions about doing stuff like this all the time on forums but few people actually do it. Please keep at it or make a new one from scratch if this frame isn't holding up to the abuse. I went and found the bottom end out of a KLT-160 to use in a similar project because of this.
Another awesome video guys keep it up love it you guys rock
would you ever modify a newer Suzuki ds80 for a video there pretty capable pit bikes for how cheap they are seeing a big wheel or seat height adjustment would be awesome!
Put a baffle in the intake manifold in the turbo 670 to stir the air and fuel mixture so both cylinders get dispersed evenly
Nitrous kit it next
Can't wait to see it again I'm doing a 110cc pitbike on a manco frame
Two fingers could prolly work it 😬
Needs a flux capacitor
What lube are you using in the trans and remains of old motor?
Where is the fender install footage?
Where did you source the fenders?
Do they sell a replacement spring for the compression release?
John broke the frame whoops
Maybe weld another section of tubing or plate along the full length of that front frame member.
Mini truck is go kart ambulance lol
Do you have space to put in a paved track for some of these suspensionless projects?
Love it guys! Thank You brother
Love it! But put that engine and transmission on a capable suspension kart or up the gearing and fit bigger tyres to handle rough ground at speed.
I had a bad compression release go bad on a push mower 4.5hp briggs and never heard about one on a 225 lol
So where is Charles Time every time this happens you two leave him out it would have been nice to see a proper race with all three or are you two afraid he will wipe the floor with you lol
maybe next time include him in the race or races he seems to be doing all the hard work and all you two do is break them yes its a great idea and its fast I still like you're videos but be fair and stop hogging all the RIDES JOHN does nothing and rides first as always gets a bit old I know you do the backwards filming and editing again be fair I've watch you from the being and don't like were you're going just be fair that's all I ask and you will be no 1 in my cart channels again as re beard has overtaken you because he's fair and lets his buddies drive his carts so let's watch this space I bet you won't even read my letter so anyway I wish you all a happy new year and may your channel be no1 again. all the best from John from rugby UK.
You lads ma ma maa ma make me happy. 🙂
Use the Dingo kart with this setup 😮
Imagine a 670 v twin with a gearbox
Your channel home page says "This channel has no content" and everything is gone. If you click on VIIDEOS its all there but you might want to fix that.
Wow! Taking chances guys!
The frame was broken look at time 6:06 you can see the crack
Old bmx trick for the clutch leaver is to bend the end out and back almost to a loop
👍
Why exactly running a centrifugal clutch on the motor?
You inspire me alot
Keep up the good work…
Yea how about a road version on a track.
Isn't this technically a DCT lol
