TERRIFIC individual. we should ALL be like him. Some of us, try!! :-) Florida's chock-full of Genius, kids!! a little gray-haired, but STILL kickin' :-)))

Holly man 😱😱😱😱🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍

Steve - very nice boat, congrats on such a beautiful canoe! One question, please - Any thoughts on fiberglassing the entire exterior of the boat? Would that help with strength / longevity? Is there a downside to that? I am looking to start this project soon with my son but I am wondering about doing just the seams (per the plans) vs the entire boat.

thanks for you videos I am going to start a build myself

Is it a no no to put a 125cc Lifan with a four speed trans or would that be a cycle car? Thank you for the informative video.

Seems to me that for the people that want to make changes they should build a car to "spec" first and then start looking at modifications at performance upgrades. Find out how good the car works before you decide to make it something else entirely. I imagine that just putting in a bigger, more powerful engine just creates a cascade effect of other things that need to be upgraded to compensate for the additional power from the bigger engine. Better suspension, bigger brakes, front brakes, better/bigger tires, beefier hubs and axles, frame reinforcement. All these things that put you right back to where you started in terms of the power:weight ratio, just in a much more expensive package. I too, am looking at building my first cycle kart and asked all these questions and after thinking about it came up with the same answers. The cars are meant to be cheap(ish), fun to drive, but also rewarding to build and something of an artistic endeavor.

My dad used to race go-karts back in the 80s- early 90s running 5hp Briggs and Stratton motors and all the ways small engine dudes find top get just even the smallest percentage of gains out of these small engines never ceases to amaze me. But a few fractions of a percent, aggregated over many iterations and modifications really starts to add up to big gains.

Now, this is what I call a cyclekart! Great build, you must be really pleased with what you’ve created.

Hi Steve, thanks so much for making these videos, really enjoying watching how you figure things out. I am based in the uk and have just started my first build. I know this video was made awhile ago, but do you remember what part you used for your steering wheel quick release. And also do I need a steering shaft that is threaded on one end, or do I just weld the quick release to the steering shaft? Thanks in advance for any info, regard’s Jeff

If the frame rails by the axle aren't parallel, how will the bearings spin properly?

thank you this is very helpful keep up the good work much appreciated.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🇮🇩

Como se le quita lo aselerado a ese motor

Excellent

This build turned out nice! Great job everyone!

nice driving.....miss that neck of the woods

So sad. When I first came across cycle carts I felt I could be competitive spending abour 2500 bucks. Affordable fun racing with others in exactly the same spec cars. Awesome. And instead it has devolved into a car that is over engineered and super esxpensive. I want to to see how much you have sopent on these cars. Expensive alloys, complex suspensions. Hand made custom bodies. FFS way to make a fun grassroots everyman's racing series into another rich guy hobby. FACK!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍🇮🇩

You need to make a saddle to align and hold the axle

The Honda CT90 Wheels are kind of hard to find any that aren't bent is there any other will configuration that will work in place of it The ones on eBay are narrower and don't look as good That's the only thing that's holding me up from building my first cycle car is finding a good wheel tire combination anybody have any info let me know please thank you

I am going to assume since your back axle is fixed, you adjust your rid height by the length of your shacl;es ?

Where can I get a set of plans, as I live in UK thanks Rick

Beautiful work.

I'm a decent welder having worked in a machine/fabrication shop when I was younger, you can get some nasty UV burns on your arms welding with short sleeves. I think I am going to build one of these carts with my son, it looks like a lot of fun!

Where did you get the seat from, I don't see it on your spreadsheet.

Cool

I am an ex faux finish artisan. Pro tip: you need an oil based Glaze. Then, introduce oil based wood stain to do top grain. You will also want a flogging brush to introduce long grain substrate. The final bonus tool is a check roller and a hog's hair softening brush. Icould write out instructions but w/o visuals, it would have to be an epic tome but I haven't even had my coffee yet. I haven't looked but I'm sure you could find YT vids showing how to build up a wooden faux finish. Love your attitude about trying new things.

Are you using 16 gauge 6061?

Will it ever run again????

what sprocket fits with that bolt patter ?

When you install a new flywheel on one of these, it's a good idea to lap the new flywheel to the crank like you would a valve job. A little valve compound and turn it like you did to check you had clearance is all that's needed. Make sure to clean everything well before assembly.

The bearing sets I got from Go-Power don't have set screws in the bearing, there is a coller with one. Will this work or should I get some with set screws? Seems like the shaft might spin in the bearing.

Beautiful workmanship and excellent engineering, true show winners.

Are these still classified a a motorcycle and can they be street legal?

I keep reading that a 224 requires you grind the Mod2 cam. You didnt do that correct? Have a 224 bone stock leaking oil so I have to tear into it and thought about throwing a mod2 thats laying around in it. Springs and thinner head gasket. Leave the governor for now but going to dump the oil sensor.

Steve love your work and all the expert comments from people here who can do better BUT DON'T keep up the good work.I'm about to start making my tail section once i get over this flu, and I will post photo's on Aussie Cyclekarts 👍🏁

Mantab bos

Great video 🎉,I’m curiously that will it make a living on making this kind of cars in western countries?❤

need a pair of these for my build. Can’t get my head round why they are called shocks, when they are obviously dampers 🤷🏻‍♂️

What is the freeboard on this canoe? It looks nice and deep. I know this video is 2 years old. I'm wanting to build a 12'-13' solo canoe/kayak hybrid with front and rear decks with dry storage like you did in the bow of yours. All the kits and plans that I see have a pretty low side, but I want higher sides and a bit wider boat. I'm just looking around at different designs right now but I'll probably end up designing my own based on the best attributes of others that I've seen. Thank you.

was wondering if you think i could take the rear axel and tires and use it like a trike kit on a 250cc scooter i want to build something like a trunk trike basically hang the wheels back 2 feet behind the rear wheel and attach the side rails to the side rails of my scooter ? i could just get a trike kit but the car wheels are a lot heavier then the wheels on the kart can they handle 65 mph ?

Amazing builds, stellar craftsmanship. Incidentally, it was your videos, Steve, that inspired me to build a cyclekart. Also, Mark from renegade spent over an hour on the phone with me answering the many questions I had and steering me in the right direction. Thanks guys!

What kind of welder do you use? Like, 120 or 240, MIG or stick, etc?
