yesterday i scored a yellow jacket go kart for $75 bucks. the engine runs but needs to be cleaned before doing so, and it all there except a clutch and maybe a new chain. but im wondering, does anyone here have something like it?
its fully suspended with a shitty design a-arm front and a swing arm rear. right now it has just coilovers. nothing special, just springs riding on some shafts. however, I have already come up with some replacment equipment. for the rear i , uhh, found the stock rear shock off of an '03 cbr600rr. so that way ill have some more travel as well as full adjustability, and if i play my numbver right ~10in of travel . for the front i came up with another set of oil filled coilovers but im not sure what they go to. but anyways, if i find the right parts for the damn thing im thinkin itll be pretty cool. plus the motor has a high compression head and possibly a cam.
down to the point: does any one have any knowledge as to how to hop up briggs and stratton motors? i know they do it for jr dragsters, but i need reliability. no 1/4 miler here, i wanna bash some fuckin terrain.
anyone?
