I was going to, but then I was messing around with some of the go kart wiring and now the hover board won't connect to the go kart chassis. As soon as I can figure out a solution, I will make a video on how it holds up!

Very cool man! I'm curious to know what kind of front tires you have, how wide are they? do they inflate? are they offroad tires or street tires? Because I also did test with the OEM front tires that have no grip at all, so it pushed the front instead of gripping enough to drift the rear tires. Very soon I will be using Harbor Freight tires in the front and testing those because just about anyone can get them and they're not too expensive. Even though they're more of an offroad tire, I still think it will perform well.

@@GavinFS Hi Gavin. Thank you for your reply ! All four tires inflate and are off road tires. The front tires are 8 in and 2 in wide. The back tires are Harbor Freight 10in tires. I wonder if it has to do with the tie rod, the width or Ackermann physics. I am going to try to upload a quick video. I am looking forward to your next video. I love the channel.

neither lol but a flywheel is much needed

They for real look so much better and drive much better as well!

This shock will still work great! They have instructions for applying the proper air pressure into the shock to align with your weight. I'm running the 165mm and it's a 1.5in lift over stock, but if you want to get a longer shock like a 195mm or 200mm which would be closer to a 3in lift, there are a lot more options from DNM or other companies that also include a coil, so you don't have to worry about adjusting the pressure.

they also have more budget friendly options, but this shock is a little bit more expensive because of a few other features. that's sick dude! do you have a 100cc or 125cc?

@@GavinFS currently im on a 400cc dirtbike and just want a city cruiser something to get from school and back

heck yea dude, this bike would be perfect. just make sure to keep it locked up in a safe place bc it gets looks fs lol

I got the 165mm. I’m 5’11. It should raise it about 1-1.5in

@ so the 200mm should work for me

either the 190 or 200 would work great, are you going to upgrade the front fork as well?

@ hopefully I’m getting the mx650 next week so I’m trying to get the simplest things then later the bat and motor

I’m thinking of first upgrade the rear shocks then I don’t know what’s next

gotcha, yea I just tested it again today and blew the front tire so I will be continuing to make changes. appreciate the feedback tho!

no kidding, i'm 5'11 and its honestly pretty awkward for me to use. I'm trying to make it work as good as possible without doing extensive cuts and welds since not everyone can do those kinds of mods

I have plans to make another electric go kart so I’ll be sure to make it detailed!

Thanks bro, will do!

Yea I totally agree, I've experienced drift karts where both wheels are on the ground at high angle, and it doesn't work well because there's too much grip and spins out. Plus, the one wheel up looks super sick when drifting, almost like Chelsea Denofa in the RTR Mustang just throwing big speed and angle even though that's not actually the case, it's much slower than that haha

Thanks brotha!

Much appreciated brotha!

I will try, I'm currently having issues getting the hover board to connect with the go kart frame. It has nothing to do with the tires, I was messing with the front nose piece where it uses bluetooth to connect to.

Thank you!

@ ym

They are from BMI Karting

Thank you bro

much appreciated brotha!

Tbh I've never checked my range but whenever I drove it, I put it in Corsa and drove it hard for about 20 min before it got to the last bar of battery.

Dude for real, I feel like I can genuinely see better now that it's not as dim

@GavinFS found out I had some 74 leds I used to do the shifter light and the cup holder lights so I slapped one in the glove box and boom she's Beauty! ... there's these modern technology newer age vehicle things like the fact that the light in the glove box comes on with the headlights which is flippin' ridiculous

That's sick! I haven't gotten a chance to do those lights yet just because they look like a pain haha. Dude tell me about it, would've like to have the glove box turn on regardless.

Much appreciated! From your perspective do you have recommendations for improvements?

Not now but at some point yes lol

I haven't looked into it yet, but I would love to get some more range out of it as well haha

@@GavinFS right? My one wheel gt-s handles it no problem I can get 20 mi out of it going full throttle so maybe a battery like that in the go kart pro ?

The batteries aren't too much different. Off the top of my head I'm thinking that the one wheel gets more range because it's one motor being powered instead of two, and it being a one-wheel vs a go kart, the weight comparison is pretty different. I think in the future it would be worth just buying the go kart frame and ditching the hover board to have a self-made drive terrain in the back where you can apply a bigger battery to get much more performance and range out of it. Batteries are pretty expensive already, so to get a more powerful battery that is small enough to fit in these compact units would just make it not worth how much you would spend on that nice of a battery.

That's sick! I feel like they're pretty easy to get so I'm trying to find ways of making them fun and convenient. What are the plans for yours?

Thanks bro!

When you do a stage 1 kit, you upgrade the fuel jet that allows more fuel to flow through the engine. This, combined with a small exhaust allows the engine to spit amazing flames.

It was! Really excited to drive it more after these next few mods I have lined up👀

Interesting, it runs but it has a ticking sound, and I was thinking that it might be the timing guides are shot. Thanks for the info I'll look into it more!

Glad to help brotha! Appreciate that, makes sense because you would only need to see in there if it's dark out.

thanks brotha, much appreciated!

I put the stock intake on which make it really rich so it started popping

@@GavinFS i thought lean made it pop

​@@braydenjustice9384 That was my mistake, after looking at the footage again I remembered that I initially had the stage 1 kit on with the intake, and bigger fuel jet installed. Then when I put the stock intake back on, the popping was the result.

@@GavinFS ahh makes sense, sounds cool tho

motor has broken coil mounts so it's getting scrapped anyway

I won't let me put a link in a comment so I will put it in the description right now

@@GavinFS Thank you so much Gavin. I have one more question. Will a sprocket brake hub adapter 3/4" work for the rear tires on the Ground Force? Your videos are awesome!

@@l.bradly4107 Of course! Yes it will, the rear axle is 3/4in. I use that same hub for my rear tires! Unfortunately I can't find the rear tires I bough forever ago anymore. But 8in or 10in tires are a perfect size for the RGFD. Much appreciated!

Just a muffler delete. In the future I'd like to do headers and take off the resonator.

Yes I can!

appreciate that brotha! There really needs to be a community for modifying these karts, people sell them all the time because they get bored of it in stock form. Dude that would be perfect! I definitely want to know about the battery extension because they make it seem like it can last a while but it's not enough.

Do you have a video that explains the process?

and is a handbrake needed? i see people with them i just dont know how to mod one on

For the brakes, flip the master cylinder around and put a handle on it instead of it being cable driven by a pedal. It doesn't work any better, but it makes it feel more natural when drifting.

The second thing I would do is find a way to extend the travel of the tie rods so when you are steering, it gives you more angle by pushing or pulling the wheels more. Other than that, you should be good to go! Also, does your kart have front brakes as well?

@@GavinFSthanks! And I don’t think so I can check though!

@@8u85 Sounds good!

It actually helps because it takes out grip in the front which keeps you from spinning out

Yes you could

good question, absolutely no idea😂 but I know it's too high because I understeered a lot haha

COMING SOON!

@@GavinFS Niiiiiiiice

Yea true the electronics aren't suitable for it. Did you just hammer pvc on the stock rear tires?

@@GavinFS yeah pretty much. The video is on my channel but it's whack... at least it slides around 1 corner but then it just dies down. This was on the black/white model (the first gokart).

@@RebelDrifter gotcha, did the pvc manage to stay on well?

With tape 😂 ​@GavinFS but what you can do with the kart wheels is much better

I agree, the grip is super fun to slide on and it takes more skill to try and keep the slide going

@@ASKMTB18 💨💨

door dash would be sick haha

sounds like nightmare

i meant to do that👀
