Do you have the latest OTK document for seat posistion for various height drivers for the 2022 401RR OK (1045) chassis that you can post?
During seat setup, do you typically offset the seat by 5mm (front of seat lip to front hoop) or not worry about it?
Or what you recommend for 6' tall (1829mm) person? How far back from front hoop and how deep from chassis rails?
Hey Derek! Im just wondering If you can do a radiator flush tutorial or instructions on a rotax max 125. Cheers
sure can my friend.
What do i need to look for to make sure my seat size is perfect. I under comfort but what else? Thanks love your content
Hey Jarred, thanks legend. make sure your hips fit the seat without being too loose. too tight on the hip and you will know about it. 'hips don't lie' as the famous song would suggest
@@PowerRepublic thank you yes currently my hips are dying in my current seat 😂too tight
Your old method worked for me, that jig seems pointless unless your fitting alot of seats. The hard part was figuring out how to work under the kart as the 2 base mounts are awkward to reach and mark. Once those were done, everything else was a simple matter of fixing the base bolts on the rubber mounts, chopping those bolts to avoid dragging on the ground, and marking the rest and drilling out to fit. The rubber mounts made a big difference to the vibration through the seat as well and meant i can actually see while wearing glasses, which was impossible before (they would shake so much everything blurred, and at the end of a straight that is not good).
yeah the original is still the best Hey Chrisso !!
could you please do a video on how to install the iame x30 battery. Thanks
The new style battery bracket with the start/stop buttons?
@@PowerRepublic yes
@@ebz.900 wicked. the good thing about the iame X30 battery bracket is that the 4 screws and rail clamps bolt straight to the chassis rail in front of the brake callipers next to the seat. nice and easy. have you tried this on your own kart?
@@PowerRepublic ok, could you make a video of the wiring to the engine please.
hi Derek thanx mate for the great vids bought a kosmic 2 weeks ago n have not stop watching . have a question how do you prime up a x30 motor without using ya mouth /????? AND i have set my new style ehaust up and it is pointing at my left rear tyre is this normal ???thank you
hey bro, thanks for tuning in. yeah, crank the engine with the airbox off and put your hand over the front of the carb to seal it off.
make a spacer out of some alloy and use a longer bolt to lift the exhaust cradle up away from your back tyre.
hope that helps
Hi there, good video :) only thing I would ask is what difference the back height makes from the axle. Is this more for driver comfort or would you set a lower back height to get more rear grip? Generally I start with a neutral seat running the base of it flat to the plane of the chassis. Never tried reclining it. :)
Hey Kyle, thanks for tuning in! inclined seat will lower the shoulders and also angle the hips forward. Great for tall drivers or mega sticky tyres with a kart that is hopping. Otherwise set them flat with the chassis rail like we do on most karts and focus in on the tyre pressures
Hi there,I have a problem with my kid he's tall and big for the seat;he owns a cadet honda CR160; I'm buying a 38 cm seat to replace the one that comes with the kart which is about 30cm; need help , because the frame that holds the seat is the same size as the seat 30cm; is any possibility that I can open or bend to make room for the new seat HELP please
hey Carlos, sure can mate, use a soft hammer and strike the brake side seat support outwards with a few sharp blows. otherwise you can bend it out with an axle or hard piece of steel
you're amazing ; thanks for the quick reply; do you mind if coming back with more questions? thanks gracias
@@carlosberghusen2122 yeah for sure 👍
Can you put a 50mm axel for rotax and x30 on the tony kart 4ss?
yeah it would fit in the bearing cassettes as they have the same size outside diameter
do you have one already that you wanted to fit up to the 4SS chassis?
What is the hight from the axel and front support?
I’ll have to check for you exactly but usually 190-210cm
Hello, I have a question, I am 193 centimeters tall and I would like to know what are the settings to mount my seat ?
Hey Damien, at 193 you will have to go way back, maybe 655-660mm from the front edge of the seat to the chassis rail. and move your pedal all the way forwards. another thing you could do is tilt your seat backwards slightly too.
@@PowerRepublic And for the height of the seat, how much can I put in?
I like flush with the chassis rails, but most people will tell you that 5-10mm below the rails for someone your size. I like this too until I hit some bumps or run off the track and then crack the arse out of the seat.
hello i have a question which tires are best for and otk kart with rotax max evo
Mojo tyres are the best for the Rotax if you are planning on racing in a Rotax series. Otherwise I like the Bridgestone YLR soft compound tyres
@@PowerRepublic thank you the mojo d5?
Does this jig work on compkart
works on most karts
Hey sorry to bother again what tyres to you suggest for a 10×4.6-5 X30 kart. I used vega usually but is there another tyre i should try out? Thanks again legend
Hey Jarred, where are you racing at? We use MG yellow tyres here in Aus for X30.
@@PowerRepublic I'm racing in china and they use Yellow Vega and Maxxis Sr1 . I'm not Chinese so hard to communicate with my fellow racers haha
yeah right, what engines are they using over there mostly?
@@PowerRepublic Iame and Vortex ROK engines . I use a Vortex ROK engine.
@@tr1padvisor552 ROK GP 125 ?
For what it’s worth. The Tony kart seat mounting tool sucks. The freeline one is far better. Or the one I have made myself.
fair enough. we use the standard Power republic method as seen in our other videos
Almost everything in this video is wrong..
in regards to my hair?
@Derek, your hair is fine don't worry! @Alain, if you know so well, explain it? we have no use for stupid comments! #KeepUpTheVideosDez
@@jordyschoenmakers first we use a 8.0 and not a 8.5 drill bit
We use cik washers between the seat and the frame (minimum 4mm diameter)
We bend the underneath support and when we drill the bottom we pass the bit through the spacers and the seat support and not only through the support like in the video, that give tension in the seat.
@@alaintrix8372 just because you have a different preference doesn't mean Derek's method is wrong. I also work in this way and personally find this the most pleasant way
@@jordyschoenmakers its only one way to do it.
If you don’t understand that we dont drill a 8.5 hole for a 8.0 bolt etc etc it’s a problem
