how hard would it be to put like a blaster motor in a go kart frame?

 

depending on what kind of go-kart frame... not very hrad... my family raced go-karts for like 15 or 20 years, there is a class that runs 125 engines from drit bikes and other class that runs 250s.

 

the frame im talking about come with the motor mounts and everything already there so you dont have to fabricate anything... but they are damn expinsive... but if you got the tools and the time its not very hard to do....just got to fab up some mounts make sure they are straight so your gears arnt pulling at an angle and probly reinforce your axle carriers...

a friend of mine put a kawi 80cc in a go kart. He had to make custom motor mounts and a shifter.

It worked for a little while because the motor mounts would get loose and then the clucth eventually burnt out because of all the extra weight , especially since it was a 2seater go kart. Overall it was pretty cool, it was more fun to drive on the street though.

I got a 600cc Polaris triple/triple with 8K on here just waiting to be crammed in a go cart frame....:)

 

Come N' Get it...

 

I saw a 125 CR motor in a kart as mentioned. Guy said it would go 0 to 60 to 0 in less than 6 or 7 seconds. MY Buddies and I were like, yeah...right.

 

Braaapp braaapp brapppp....screech. Yep, he wasn't BSing....it was wild.

 

He had to start it (as I'm sure they all do) by propping the rear tires off the ground, putting it in gear, and spinning the back tires....

 

It was cool as all hell!!!
