  • We Install a new lectron Carb and finally take our 2 stroke shifter kart for a spin. It's fast and power slides in fifth gear! We had another minor issue, and will have to tune and re-gear it for my desired riding!

    Excuse me, I said 120mph but that was an exaggeration. 80-90 mph will be good enough for now. This thing isn't even close to its full potential.

    we had an RM250 powered one in the early 2000's with the short chain and a 1to1 sprocket ratio that 150mph exaggeration isnt that far off. the math is there to support it. ours had a 1/2 ratchet instead of the kick start. had a BMX brake lever on it too hooked up as a throttle actuator for starting. this was before the current age where everything is on camera, so we would ride it on the highway at night. this vid brought back a rush of good memories.

    aluminum doesn't like flexing under vibration .. endurance fatigue rather limited ... you need an entirely different mount system, where the whole radiator is not flexing off the mount .. and then put rubber washers between the AL radiator and the steel mounting flanges .. such failures are common on racing kart radiators and fuel tanks.. proper mounting is the solution.

    hey those radiators typically mount to a dirt bike on the other flange and are isolated with rubber, the side you have them mounted on is typically where the shrouds bolt to. Would be cool to see them remounted lower for a lower center of gravity, it will still see good coolant temps even mounted lower

    We drove our go-carts weekly at track, friend died in his, volted over and broke neck, died on spot. You got a rollbar on yours, good, but for f sake use gloves if need to use hand in emergency. They do roll over, we did monthly if hit curve to hard or hit other carts wheels.
    Enjoy zooming around in the cart, it's great fun yes. Nothing like a cart on a well brushed and clean road.

      Phil2stroke the spark advance is only for ease of starting I believe. Nothing to do with performance. And actually an advance would kill overev and add mid hit. Retarding timing would gain overev but reduce mid hit.

    Awesome build! I think that a shift lever like a shifter kart would work much better in this application because it looks like its hard to shift with those paddles. Also at 3:44 it looked like the axle isn't totally straight which could cause the kart to shake and vibrate. But what the hell do I know, I'm only a youtube comment and you probably already know what really needs to be improved. Anyway, great job on the chassis, it looks hella clean.

    I was thinking u should add big rubber washers under all the stuff u dnt want to vibrate off and crack so it takes some of the pounding that and mabe a couple extra braces in need be places should take care of the issue and always if u no 2 stroke its alot like nitro when u go to take off and it Boggs down before it takes off and seams to not all but hit power soon as u slam it to the floor the carb needs adjusted just a lil tip not trying to tell u what to do but I'm stoked 4 you to finally get her legs stretched alil bit she has soo so so much more in her if she it properly tuned trust me on that bro...congrats & good luck be safe ...✌
