In this video we get a barn find craigslist homemade suspension go kart for $50. We wanted to get it completely running and driving before we did the build and we were able to get the Honda gx200 running but the carb kept it far from peak performance. This kart is very rough with some horrible welds but for the cheap price for an offroad go kart with suspension is a very good deal. Despite some of the issues we were able to figure it out enough in order to take it for a drive.

    Nothing like a good find like that. A once over with an everlast welder and the frame will true up and stiffen up nicely.

    …oh yeah, never start an engine that's been sitting for a while and you know the gas is old.

    Hey… it's great watching you guys LEARN through trial and error. That $50 monster kinda resembles a hay wagon… only difference is yours makes a lot of noise. Stick with it, you'll get better and better as you go.

    Great find, though!

    How difficult would it be to convert a go-kart into a functional snow machine that could be used for ice fishing? I'd like to get ahold of a kart and put skis on the front. But as far as the rear, I'm not sure what it'll require to be able to push through snow. I was thinking paddle tires made for sand? That'd be a whole lot easier than full on trax like a tank or even a single track like a snowmobile. Thanks for any input!

    You should always drain the gas before trying to start a motor that has been sitting for a while.

    I take it back about your engineering, not great. Don't blame it on the engine, just needs a jet.

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars chimp3376 says:
