higgsti Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Go Kart With 350 Honda Engine I bought this as a rolling chassis last year from a friend, it was originally a fixed drive engine type, markings on the chassis are Wright suzuka TKM. I have modified the rear end to take a 350cc /13hp honda engine, this was done by fitting an extra outrigger and bearing housing. Then respayed in red. It has a custom made alloy billet engine mount. The engine was brand new when fitted and has only been run for aproximatly 1-2 hrs in total. A new axle was also fitted with new bearings, it has had a new nose cone, single disc brake on rear axle, also has had a brand new noram clutch fitted (that cost £145), new chain and rear sprocket. Comes with one set of alloy rims fitted (one has a small dint),and another set of old alloy rims and a couple of sets of tyres(some slicks some wets). starts 1st time and goes really well. Ive never had it on a track, just a few quick blasts round the village! Price: £299.00 Location: Selby Contact: Kev on... Tel: 07890767695 on www.kart.co.uk bargain for someone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Bob's bumper now fitted. Have been counting sprocket teeth, how sad is that! We have 16 on the clutch driving 81 on the axle. If I've worked it out right with the engine governed to 4000rpm, we'll be hitting the dizzy speed of about 25mph!!!!! Wonder if it'll accelerate to 25, really really fast... Removing the govenor, will see the heady speed of 37mph, if it revs to 6000rpm. Spare 74 sprocket will get us to 41mph at 6K.... At least the wind-chill factor will be less, the slower we go!

JeffC Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 as suspected that will be absolutly useless with 6,000rpm you need a ratio of 3.7 or there abouts, you have 5.0 at the mo 74 will be better but still useless 60 tooth sprocket will be about right but you will have to have the govener removed think the lowest I have is a 70 but will have a gleg this afternoon, I have a 92 of the w60 if you wanna go for the 0-5mph record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, looking for a small rear sprocket, anything under 74 considered. Where's Mark? he's got a bucketfull hasn't he! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
