  • go cart with an rxg engine

    hey everybody!
    i got this really cool idea and now i started to do it. what i did is i decided to build a go cart. my go cart is using an rxg yamaha engine. i bought some steel bars and designed a chasis, then i bought a steering system from a junk market, along with wheels. My go cart has kinetic honda wheels in front, and maruti car wheels in the back. It has a two wheel drive differential system with a chain connection to the engine. For brakes it has rear oil brakes. as shocks i used yamaha for back and in front i used kinnetic honda, but they are too weak so i will have to change.
    Now i still have to mount the engine and put the front wheels on, before i can take it for a spi and revv it up to the max. I willl try to send photos when itf finnidhed.

    please let me know what you think of it.

    Hey DB,

    Man how much I envy you. I always wanted to do this... Dreamt about it a lot. Always wanted to do something like that for my engineering final project, but the deadlines scared me a bit.

    Great effort, will wait for the pics and then the suggestion. To make it peppy, keep it as light and small as possible.

        thanks guys.
        well Glifford, its not so hard to build a go cart, i m only 15 and i manage quite well ( because i knoe a lot bout mechanics). For what you said about keep it light and small, i agree, mine is about 1.80 m long and 60cm wide. but its quite **** ass heavy. If you want plans i can also send em to ya if ya want.
        ill try to put on tha pics asap.
        thanks alot for ur comments.[8D]

          hey our go kart is 2 under progress
          it has a tuned yezdi engine
          no shox though
          front and rear tyres of rickshaw
          steering kit: junkyard
          material : square tubes
          weight will come to around 110 kgs
          i think the engine will need sum more tuning to have a gr8 launch
          and chain drive
          we all r 16 yr old guys doing diploma in mech engg and doing it as our project and fun 2
          not too costly
          will come 2 around 7000 wid the yezdi costing 2800

                        dont plan for the start...start and then plan and go ahead. dont hink tooooo much initially coz plans remain on tables, ideas come in the workshop and make the great concepts.
