Haven't chewed any teeth causing a No Start....was All due to a filthy gummed up Bendix. Yup , I've spun a few times going onto the grass. So costly. Great channel!
i have a VLR also and i hate the starter it always breaks or has issues when i first got it from DKC back in feb of this year for about 3-4 months we kept having problems with the starter but Sean kept replacing it cus i could turn it on like 2 times then it would not crank only about a month ago did it stop doing that and it was the same issue you had at the start of the vid
I noticed you added the zip-ties to the exhaust springs. Glad my hack is working for you! 😂 If you wrap the zip-tie loop with another zip-tie where it where it meets the spring it will tidy things up a little bit. 😁 Are you coming out to NTK Summer 3?
I really liked the intro to this video. Yep there are surprises in anything you race. Been there done that in other forms of racing!

Doug reminds me of English actor/singer, Jimmy Nall (Auf Wiedersen Pet, TV series) and he seems like a good fella😮
Tell Doug he needs to wear gloves using solvents. That's bad stuff. Great vid.
Doug already knows this let's be honest

Great video Illegal Alien, thank you for posting. Do you find that Iame KA 100 is a sturdier engine over the VLR, or have you found issues with both?
I prefer the Iame KA100.
Good morning, could you tell the store where to buy the starting system? thanks
I bought mine at Dallas Karting Complex. You can find them online, I'd try Comet Kart Sales online if you're not local.
What are the torque specs for that flywheel nut?
Looking for my 1st kart so new to this all. You're telling me no one makes a proper steel flywheel???
Doesn't seem to be an issue on the KA100.
It is done probably to minimize rotational mass. On 17000 rpm each gram counts.
It's supposed to be light for snappy acceleration. Trials bikes and lawnmowers need heavy flywheels😅
