[aussiekartman]

@corvettecraver Watch my latest videos.

[wideopenthrottle666]

how many horse engine was it at the time ?

[aussiekartman]

@wideopenthrottle666 13hp.

[wideopenthrottle666]

@aussiekartman Do you think a 5hp would move somthing that size well ?

[4952j]

needs bigger tires

[aussiekartman]

@4952j It's got bigger wheels and a dirt bike motor now. Check my newest videos.

[TheXXxSavagexXx]

can you buy this as a kit or did you make it yourself?

[ultimatemtb]

is a tad under powerd but still reallly really cool

[trammipoiss]

its weari cool

[aussiekartman]

You should check out my new vid posted yesterday. Same spot, different kart.

[PureRocker101]

what cc is it

[beep388]

where abouts in aus u live it looks like sheperton in melbourne or some where around there

good cart im building one with a jr 80 engine hopefully it works that looks like hella fun

[aussiekartman]

I'm in Croydon, in Melbourne. This was filmed in Dandenong. Where are you? We should hook up for sure, I'm currently building a rigid-framed kart with a Ducar(Chinese) 125cc 4 stroke. About 2 weeks off driving.

[drewwaterz1686]

@aussiekartman hey me too

[moviedudes100]

dude no offense but get somthin that has more power like a dune buggy or a 4 willer

[aussiekartman]

Check some of my other vids out, I get to drive my brother's sandrail often. My kart just fits into my single car garage/workshop. The kart is currently in the midst of a bike engine install.

[CorneliusZelius]

get some knobbys on there :)

[aussiekartman]

Bigger wheels coming soon (same tread pattern), and 400cc road bike motor.

[jlubez]

no no that kart is a good size i ment the motor but the 530 will be crazy

[aussiekartman]

Haha 530 would be crazy, but that's someone else. The 13hp in this kart is broken already, but I've got a 400 road bike motor replacement. About 40hp and 6 speed will be a bit different.

[jlubez]

why so amall

[aussiekartman]

Because it's a go kart. Fit's into the back of my ute, fits in my single car garage.

[shrederful]

how much and long did it take to mkae it ?

[aussiekartman]

Took about 6 months, cost about $1000.

[shrederful]

nicee

!

[arinjacobfinch]

how do I tell what CC my engine is cause I got a gvx530 its a 16hp engine?

[aussiekartman]

It'll be 530cc. Probably stamped on the engine case somewhere.

[JacknifeCreations]

its a 530CC

[bucketead]

Dude sick! now you just got to drift for like 100 feet

[ConnorX024X]

what cc motor is that, im when i make a billy kart and get bored of it im gunna put a 150cc motor in it.

[aussiekartman]

390cc. Industrial motor, a bit gutless and no gearbox.

[kmkhouse]

there is no way thats a 390cc

[aussiekartman]

Sorry, you're right it's 389cc.

It's an industrial motor, and will never rev & sound like a 400cc bike. 3600 vs 7000rpm, and a gearbox make a big difference.

[CSAKvids]

You can mess with the governor, and carb, those will make alot of difference...

Theres a huge amount of after makret parts for these motors too

[vortex812]

engine tooooooooooooo small.

[aussiekartman]

I think I'll accept your challenge. Planning to buy a bike soon. 250 2 stroke is exactly what I'm after, but I'd use like a 500 4 stroke. I also want it to be watercooled - no airflow behind the seat. Just depends what I can find/afford.

[drummking42]

did you make the frame?

[aussiekartman]

Yeah, all home made. Originally just a gravity kart that I built 18 months ago. The engine has only been in for a few months, and has blown up already.

[aussiekartman]

Torque converter would be nice, but drive issues are the least of my problems now. Blew a golf ball sized hole in the crank case on the weekend. Don't know whether to source another 13hp, or just buy a motor bike and rebuild with the atv wheels I've got.

[aussiekartman]

Sure is. I couldn't find a clutch to fit my 1" output shaft with a sprocket, that's why it's all v-belt driven.

[supramz2]

haha awesome go kart man

at the start you looked like you were the stig but who test drives go karts :P

[Quentonwall]

how many horses

[aussiekartman]

Only 13hp, enough for some cheap entertainment.

[Quentonwall]

thats way faster then mine mine is a 6 hp 190 or 205 cc i keep seeing different things

[huffy02]

dude u need more power! but looks ok

[aussiekartman]

You're right. I'm already planning my next kart. Similar frame, atv wheels and +300cc motor bike engine. (Gotta sell this one first).
