that is hands down the best looking 212 ever built!
I want one so bad
Its a 420
colbster54trains u sure
Ur right its a 212
Agreed. Have you thought about building motors for people?
Too rich for my blood. I have to stick with rebuilding the Craigslist Specials!
Ryan Courts tell me about it
The only bad thing is its hard to find one on cragslist sometimes
Same thing here brother!!! Nothing wrong with that though!!!
Love the go-kart looks nice. But I 2 agree the frame is over priced and most of us can't afford it, because I was going to get one.
Keep up the killer video's
FYI... if you take the 3 inch spacers down to 2 inches on each front wheel or slide the rear wheels out further on the axles, the front tires will bite more in the turns and help the maneuverability of live axle go karts. I used to race go karts. It's a small change with big results!
😅😅😅😅😅
😊😊😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😊😊
Awesome kart! This is the XL version correct? Have you tried gps for speedometer?
+FireAndGasoline this is the cxl frame. No but I need to try it out
The good thing about the gps apps is they work even if the phone dosent have service. So you can use an old phone and not worry about dropping it.
Red Beard's Garage: hey red beard i was wondering what you did with the 25 hp kohler engine? Did you sell it?
FireAndGasoline what app is that?
Jay Nicee there are a few, i use one called "Ulysse Speedometer"
I just subbed and I am loving the vides keep up the good work
only trouble i see with this beautiful build is the leg room. why such a short wheel base? tube steel reinforced would be fine, make it comfortable
That is a great looking cart. Good job RBG. Sounds healthy too. I like the splattered look on the engine cover. Looks like that cart would be a blast to ride. Thanks for the video.
My God please change the music, play some Lynyrd Skynyrd or something like that!!
I was dying at 16:12 😂
The go.kart is so sick and I love the engine cover the specks
I have the valve spring compression tool made, but need to give you a few instructions on its use.
+OKIE CHOPPER I will try to call you tonight Okie
very cool build! 55 mph.... you could run shine in that bad boy.....cheers!
$600 for a bare frame? Actually $500 + $450 shipping... That’s $950 just for a hunk of metal that even when built nicely like yours (around $2,300 total), has an uncomfortable seating position, horrible understeer and I’m assuming bad bump steer as well. It’s an old school yard Kart for the same price as a fairly modern used racing kart. There’s no reason to buy and build this GoKart when you can buy a nice TAG or Shifter racing GoKart for the same price on Craigslist. This GoKart just doesn’t make sense. Maybe if it was like $750 fully assembled with a stock predator and only $200 for shipping... But that will never happen because it’s not mass produced and never will be again. I love your videos, I’m just being reasonable about this. It’s made in the USA and yada-yada, bottom line is they’re not going to sell.🤷🏼♂️ Buy a new GoKart from a good supplier in China, they’re pretty nice! They’re not cheap because they’re cheaply made, they’re cheap for us due to the transfer of currency between the US and China.
Nice clone of an American classic go-kart 600 pretty steep price for go-kart that sold for a couple hundred bucks when it was first introduced in the 70s isn't that frame already patented here in the United States
Dude ur hauling ass with that i really want to see RGB vs CNC or cars and cameras would be an awesome race
Do more videos like this red beard, the entire build in one video
Good Job! Best build yet! Beyond just a great product, I can see a yard-kart class at local dirt-tracks for the these frames with a spec motor and tires as an inexpensive way to get into racing.
Forget the kill switch make it nos button! Lol
You should try a all out performance build and balance the engine to see how many rpm you could get and run on a dyno to see how many hp it can produce. Beings they have two oil drains I thought of using one to add oil filter and the low oil sensor hole to make a lubrication squirter also an oil cooler could be added.
They have no oil pump on the engines. If I had a charging system I could. The button was actually for nos lol. Later video
Red Beard's Garage I know they don't have an oil pump what I have in mind is a belt driven pump from crankshaft it doesn't need to be really big and not a lot of pressure just needs to circulate oil through a filter and oil cooler. I also was looking at using an old ford v8 smog pump for belt driven supercharger I believe it should pump air fast enough to create a little pressure.
We had to build 4 inch spacers to fit my torque converter😂😂😂
Red how about building an Electric Kart and see what that can do please
+Moondyne .Joe already got it in the works
Excellent I have been waiting for some one of your build caliber to show us how to build one ! I live in a rural town in Western Australia ( built up not out on a farm) and I love the idea of as quiet as possible I am of the Don't see or hear me school and dont p*ss of the neighbors type
I cringe every time I see you go out on the Road in your karts
Tony
Those are some awesome looking tires!
That's the best looking go cart I've ever seen
I think this is the first video that seen where you guys are wearing helmets 😂😂
Hey red on the latest red cart u built do know what cam is in that motor I'm actually building one that is very similar I got a few different performance cams but just curious good cam with a T/C being is that tc won't rev as high thanks
+Chris Haskell mod2. This one revs to 8k
dude the places you ride look just like Beech Creek Tn. of maybe Fall Branch where you might see some ol boy with a hot rod go cart or 4 wheeler :P keep up teh good work man the only difference is Fall Branch cops would not tolerate much go cart in the little burg they think is a city cause it has a Dollar General :) years ago we used to get away with that stuff
Yeah the cops really don't mess with us around here
Please only ride it on the road
Actually for me I might get Trailmaster MB200 still and probably the Gokart but is knobby tires.
Great job! Looking forward to the race against little red.
What a sweet freakin cart. Looks awesome RB! The frame is sweet too.
Just a little more protection for legs and feet, and this would be perfect.
If only my dad would let me make something like this . . .
ik this was 8 months ago but fax dads thinks its stupid i have a go kart and i want a mini bike for christmas but he said a coleman 200cc would be too small
Nice! Awesome job on build and the links for everything! Instead of searching for parts click link and buy!
Nice job !!! After the build up on the motor do you still use the stock spark plug or do you change it, if so to what ? Tks Kirk
Dude this guy builds some bad ass go karts all the time💯
I look at some of your videos
yes it is american made, yes it is cool but for that price you can buy a good racing frame used/new
mightress Lmao, wanna know what’s sad, I found one of those frames the other day at work, Just bought a 212 CC engine for it, hopefully it works
Why are these go kart kits so expensive. I mean cmon lol
I think it should be called big red. Get it? Little red and Big red.
That go kart is nice. How did you speckle the engine shroud
+Justin Pate dip your fingers in paint and flick it
Amazing video it's finally here
Sweet go kart!!! I just came across your channel and new I had to hit subscribe when I saw the attention to detail even on the pedals with a bedliner coating and red circle cutouts. Nice! Can't wait to see what's next
+MRDJHOLLOWCOST thanks man.
I love the wheels heck the hole cart very good job👌
I have your whole 212 setup wait for my video
Also I think the first lil red is faster 56 .
Racing cart had nothing on it
+ToeToetaylor Almighty gang hittas this kart is night and day faster. The carb was only opening 3/4 of the way in this video. Ton more power though
Red Beard bro how do you hook up the kill switch and rpm meter please make video thanks I love your engine builds everything in-depth thanks man keepem comming I got into this then found your channel
i like it
Going down the highway I got Mario Kart flashbacks, I waiting to see bananas 🍌 on the road.
Great looking cart and very nice build as always RB! That engine sounds healthy.
Did you ever finish the Chopper project? I have the same style exhaust parts purchased for my Cycle Kart,
I was wondering how loud your project ended up with the Slant cut muffler
+ReverendBow I'm about to get back to it very soon. Just have been trying to get some bigger builds done first
Still wondering why they didn't do the dropped front axle like the Amex and Dingos. Price seems crazy! Can find used Dingos and Amex karts cheap then do this to them. I have a video on my page of one I converted years ago.
Mannnn. That engine looks awesome
Thanks man
That is sick af
That thing is so clean looking, it should be made into its own class of go karts.
Awesome!!!! Have any ideas to get to a higher rev with a tc I haven't had the chance to have my high-performance motor wide open yet with the torque converter I think maybe 5000 with the clutch I've had it for seven and also do you have any ideas how to get some places out of a crankshaft my bearings went out because I didn't replace them after the first build going to install my new bearings now but I want to make sure my crankshaft is smooth or should I get a new one thanks a bunch
+Chris Haskell well as long as you have 18lb valve springs and no governor it should rev as high as you want it to
Red Beard's Garage idk will see can't wait just waiting on couple more parts and time to put it together
Hey did you see my message on the video of the Coleman ct200c and ex
Do mechanical brake caliper work good?
Yeah on the smaller go karts they do
I'm looking to buy a Kart for my grandaughter. Have you ever heard of a "Shaller Go-Kart"? It has a Predator 420 engine with an electric start and a battery. It looks vintage, possibly from an amusement park. Anyway, it looks well put together. Not like the average kart. The guy is asking only $700!!! I think I'm gonna get this kart! IF I'm right, it may be worth a lot more than what he's asking. I wish I could upload a picture of it! Anyway.......Thanks for your Input Big Red! Keep up the good work
hell yes is nice i like
You never explain whst torque converter you use
30 series
How much would the frame for the cart and wheels cost ? Wheels are smart
+darrin goodbrand frame is $450 and wheels and tires are around $350
I love little red 2.0 very nice can't wait for next video
And thank you
Do u ever get sick of go-karts
+guacomole Ryan you would think so but no I don't
Red Beard's Garage can I have one
What's the price ranges of Ur carts
Can you make a video on how to build the engine you used in this video for the go cart
It's on the channel. Just look for 212cc engine build. It's also in a playlist
you guys should do an e85 conversion on one of the karts or bikes
That is one classy gokart Greg. I just got my hands on a taotao 110cc atv frame for free. Going to be put a 212 predator in it. probably gonna film it and post it on youtube.
+Brandon'svlog do it man
That Part is Badass!! I have a Baja Doodle Bug with a Predator 212 motor on it, equipped with a stage one kit, and torque converter. The bike has maybe 2 hours of use! I'd like to put the 212 motor on a frame just like yours. What would it cost for the frame with the same tires you're using? Btw, I'm gonna check out the site. Thanks. Keep up the great builds!!
I don't see why anyone would complain about the price of American made products yeah you can get it cheaper but it won't be the same and definitely not as rigid.
+John exactly
I noticed you didn't use the sprocket that was in the kit
I wanted to use the 48t for more top end
How does having the front tires spaced out like that affect the steering/handling? I would have spaced them out an inch less than you did, just to keep the stress on the spindles down, unless it makes it handle alot better.
+16driver16 not sure I would have to compare it back to back to know
Im maybe going to build a gokart like little red. Any tips? And what engine upgrades do you have on it?
+Eat My Moto Dust same that is on this kart
Where did you geh the turnbuckles?
All parts came from go power sports
Dam its fast
Hey how did you set up your brake caliper. Because mine is facing the same direction but when I press the brake it releases the disk and when I let loose the pedal it grabs the disk, I tried taking the caliper apart but it's almost like its welded together
You can unbolt the caliper apart and then knock a pin out to flip the arm.
Red Beard's Garage thanks! Got it done today after an hour of struggles and a blow torch
This gokart looks better than most people's truck "builds"
+Drew Love thanks man
where can i find those spindles and springs? i have a dingo kart that needs a upgrade!
+6'6 GARAGE on go power sports. I will put the link in tonight
Mine years ago. Back to being a dingo, but all street trim is on my Amex. A cvt on a street kart like this has crazy acceleration! ua-cam.com/video/t3tw6G9Ppvc/v-deo.html
Real nice
Price???
Nice job. A red go kart on red beards garage
I want 1
Youre gonna love thoes maxxis, you'll never wanna go back to the go powersports ones lol
What I like to run on my quads. Maxxis all trek
Go power sports sells maxis
How much would this cost to build? Not including the mods he has done to the engine.
The kits are sold on go power sports now.
Red Beard's Garage thanks! I'm planning to build a similar go kart with my dad and a father/son project. Love your channel and especially the new and improved little red v.2 lol
He's having so much fun can't wait to build my own
Does gopowersport ship out to other countries
I don't think so
Why not use your phone with the mph app? OMG. How dangerous is this? No more than sitting at a red light while on a tricycle. Oh by the way I would have gotten 8 tickets that day. LOL When do we knock out the governor?
Try bringing the front wheels in a little, it should get rid of the push
It grips good. The only time it pushes the front end is if you floor it when setting still and try to sharp turn.
Red Beard's Garage I grew up racing karts, I miss those days. Wish I never sold my last one, coyote wide track le with a Yamaha KT 100😢
Would a manco dingo jacksaft/engine mount fit this frame?
+16driver16 I'm not sure.
😫I want one so bad but my parents think Kickstarter is a scam
+Kart Kid tell them to read up on it.
How much was this go kart build
Around 1600-2000
What header is this you are using on this pred
Go power sports sells this header
Cool vid of a good looking kart. Looks more like a "medium" frame to me though, I'd prefer another 8 to 12 inches of wheelbase. Something I'm curious about, would a live axle kart meant for pavement benefit from a differential?
+Butch S. If you could get a differential it would probably work pretty good.
Kool kart
Do u think I could make me some pedal stops like u have on this kart ? And also what was the length on the rear shaft 36”
I cant remember the axle length I think it was a 40. The pedal stops are sold at go power sports
Red Beard's Garage
Ok thanks for the info
Where did get you the front springs?
Go Power Sports has them
I wanna build same kart with my dad but i dont have idea for frame can someone give me plan for kart thanks !!!!
Use GPS test to get your top speed next time. Its free in the app store on android.
I like the way it's built I have one that's very close its called a purple haze I have a lot of work to do on it somebody cut the roll cage off of it & the live axle everything is stuck on it I bent a lot of parts heating them & using pullers on the this kart has a jack shaft on it with the driven clutch on the left side and the right side is the small gear & the big gear is on the axle
Good video! I have been watching your videos trying to make my own go kart and now I'm hooked
+Charlie Martindale it is easy to do man. Thanks for watching
