Me too. I miss riding so much but have a major lack of funds due to my wife's health and our location. I hope to change that next summer or summer 2022.
wll1500 there's a way to put reverse on them, i didnt think it would be worth it though. I dont need it to often. I might add it later on down the road though
This is still one of the most functioning swaps on RUclips!! Great job and great choice of motor, imagine a ninja ex500 twin would really get that buggy movin'!!!
that was my plan! didnt want to use huge motor. didnt want to have to make many changes to buggy to fit motor so i went smaller. totally buggy weight was only 486 pounds. taller gear, and it worked out great!
misanthropist111 im wanting to take my 1991 katana 600 motor and throw it into a 2 seater full size go cart. It would be pulling me ( 186lbs ) and passenger. Do you think that motor is big enough?
This is stunning work. WICKED!! If it were mine I'd put a 10 tooth larger sprocket on the axle and/or 6, + 2 teeth smaller on the output(lessen the load on the shaft bearing too)and get some good crawl speeds out of it. You have way more top speed than you need. Beeee careful.
Hey Jeremy. Nice job man! I just picked up a KD150 about a month ago and was thinking of doing a motor transplant as well. Only difference is, I'm thinking of using a Honda 200S three wheeler engine. I've had one sitting in my shop for over a year now and figured why not? Pull start, 5 speed with auto clutch. I also have a billet piston, a 200X cam and a T6 exhaust for it that I was going to install on a Honda XR 200R. I ended up selling it and still have the parts. Ditto on the: "could you do a video showing how you mounted the motor, etc". I could really use some good ideas and yours looks like you did it all up to snuff. Nice job and thanks for the video.
200 with the 5 speed should work pretty good. i have a video on my channel of the build. shows some good pics of the mounts. if you need more than that just hit me up and let me know
jim52970 you have to keep in mind that those aren't regular "250cc" its a kawasaki nija engine 250. Way different than your standard go kart engine at 250cc. The thing is fukn awsome!
Jeremy Taelman Hey man do you know what this thing tops out at? I’m thinking about putting a cbr 600 in my buggy but just not sure the speeds I’ll be hitting.
Nice job, Jeremy!! I have to admit that when first I saw your video, I was skeptical about the "little" 250, but after seeing it in action my jaw dropped open, WOW! So, I ordered the same kart and I'm now looking for a Ninja. It looks like a very clean, simple set up yet, fast, light weight and stable at speed. I was very impressed at stable that chassis is even going twice as fast as it was intended to go. Thanks bro!
i had a issue with the rear. thats why i waited a season before i got it powder coated. had to make better mounts and reinforce rear, and while i was at it i reinforced front just to be safe.
DAMN, I Didn't realize that motor could get up like that... Man! And Ive had doubts about 250cc 300cc Bikes Shit! and this was in a Buggy too. Great Work Bro
thank you! 250 works really well, damn little thing whines out 16000 rpm. bigger jets in carb, k&N filters,high preformance exhaust and racing gas brought that motor to life!
Great song choice...one of the best! How did you setup the stereo? Bluetooth speaker or marine audio and speakers? I ended up getting a 150 GMX hammer. The kandi's were out of my price range here in Aus.
It's a system made by boss audio. Ment for motorcycles, it's not marine audio but it's water proof. It uses a small amp that plugs in to your phone or mp3 player.
Thanks Jeremy. I ended up getting a buggy about 6 weeks and rolled it at 50kp/h. Ended up in Melbourne via ambulance with crushed nerves and cut to the bone after my arm went under the roll cage. Rehab now for the next 6 months to get my fingers to work properly again.😨 I have since installed 4 point harnesses and upgraded suspension. Bloody fun things these buggies. Thanks again Jeremy
wow you're genius. nice buggy.. is this thing can go reverse? i want to build one i'm an indonesian i have 2011 ninja 250r do you still need to pull up the clutch when you changing gear? or it's already semi auto?
How do you did this modification? I have a 150cc pgo buggy and I want to change the engine. I like this type of engine! Can you show as how do you that? Thankyou!!!
I'm dropping a ninja 250 engine in an old tao tao extended buggy frame. I am trying to find the best way to account for chain tension. How did you account for chain tension?
Michael Woodsdale thanks man, I have one video on my channel on how I put it together. other than that it was all custom work. bought the buggy and a ninja 250 and started building.
jean tube eu já tive um mini buggy fiphinha e troquei eu me arrependi de ter trocado meu buggy era novinho eu também já tive uma mini moto Biz mais roubarao🙁
600 would be carzy! I think in something like that it would just want to drift all the time (break tires loose). but its also about whats available. I think either motor would work fine.
is a kawasaki ninja 250 engine faster than an average 250cc UTV engine? Sorry for the noob question but this thing seems spritelier than the 250cc UTVs I have been looking at
Let's all just take a moment to admire how smooth that dirt road is
it doesnt even look like dirt when he gets moving
its concrete
@@xavmeister99 it still do be dirt doe for a lot of the beginning
Don’t like smooth only muddy and bumpy dirt
😍😍
this video really helped me get away from reality just turn on the good music and cruse I miss times like these
glad it helped bro!

This is one of my favorite videos right here dig the 90s grunge man
The biggest problem with dropping motorcycle engines into "off road" frames is no reverse....
wll1500 there's a way to put reverse on them, i didnt think it would be worth it though. I dont need it to often. I might add it later on down the road though
I was on a dirt pavement and I couldn’t even reverse my bike
Just turn and burn, it'll slide it around..lol
The reverse gear box for a gy6 seems pretty stout. There is a guy running one on a ninja 750 buggy, and I can't believe it holds.
This is still one of the most functioning swaps on RUclips!! Great job and great choice of motor, imagine a ninja ex500 twin would really get that buggy movin'!!!
Love the sound of the 250 buggy.
looks like a really good setup, its proof you dont need a bunch of HP if you have the right gearing.
that was my plan! didnt want to use huge motor. didnt want to have to make many changes to buggy to fit motor so i went smaller. totally buggy weight was only 486 pounds. taller gear, and it worked out great!
whats your gearing. im 16/60 on a r6 motor 24" tire. too much
Yeah thats my thought, I'm gonna make one but with a yz250f engine or a yz250fx..
I just said hell with it and I put a predator
V Twin
misanthropist111 im wanting to take my 1991 katana 600 motor and throw it into a 2 seater full size go cart. It would be pulling me ( 186lbs ) and passenger. Do you think that motor is big enough?
I’ve never seen such a perfect build, good stuff!
Good taste in music, sTp BaBY! That's what I'm talking about!
good jam to listen to flying down the road!

That is a sweet buggy! I'm building one like that now.
Must be a blast cruising around on that thing with some Stone Temple Pilots going
Gavin Wood that’s creed u moron
Love the setup. How did you hook up the shift linkage and clutch?
I wanna know that too ?
Little bit of that flinestone actions to reverse
At first I was like ya cool but I would've used a bigger motor like a 500cc. That was until the 3:20 mark!!! 250cc is plenty..
haha, best comment ever! thanks for watching man!
jim52970 you have to keep in mind that those aren't regular "250cc" its a kawasaki nija engine 250. Way different than your standard go kart engine at 250cc. The thing is fukn awsome!

Nicee mini buggy I love the color green💚
I remember watching this video when it first came out wanted to copy this build, here I am 5 years later planning the build
Great buggy, great music!
How do you feel about the suspension mounts? Would they bend or snap on a slight jump? they look flimsy
i had a issue with the rear. thats why i waited a season before i got it powder coated. had to make better mounts and reinforce rear, and while i was at it i reinforced front just to be safe.
Jeremy Taelman top speed?
Just cool
Hey man if you can answer me I would like to know what years of ninja is the engine from? I have a carter talon 2005 with no engine
That is awesome bro
I love the videos keep the good work up
thanks bro
Imagina varios amigos juntos curtindo o final de semana dando um rolé com esses quatro circulo ❤👌👌
Seria Ideal yo pienso lo mismo 😊
Please do a walk around this beast.
Nice build bet that thing is a blast
Cool little buggy dude.
DAMN, I Didn't realize that motor could get up like that... Man! And Ive had doubts about 250cc 300cc Bikes Shit! and this was in a Buggy too. Great Work Bro
thank you! 250 works really well, damn little thing whines out 16000 rpm. bigger jets in carb, k&N filters,high preformance exhaust and racing gas brought that motor to life!
Jeremy Taelman how much HP do you think it has after the mods ?
Any videos showing how you configured the shifter?? Awesome buggy btw man!
This is practically me. Cargo shorts. Chris cornell blasting. All he needs is a monster ultra by his side.
Chris Cornell huh? Stp fool....goddammit if your gonna brag know your shit
This would be hella fun 250 would all you would need something small pretty compact too love the color of the cart as well badass bro🤟

hey mate do you leave the engine in the standard specifications or did some major/minor bore up? thx.
That's the life; all you're missing is a road soda
Haha, for sure! I was contemplating putting a cup holder in it for just that reason.
How is this all set up? From the drive chain/belt and the shifter? I would really love to do this to my exact same kart
Where did you get it from and how much was it. Thinking of getting one like that.
Looks Like Fun and Well Geared .
wow you're genius.
nice buggy..
is this thing can go reverse?
i want to build one
i'm an indonesian
i have 2011 ninja 250r
do you still need to pull up the clutch when you changing gear?
or it's already semi auto?
thank you. no reverse, but really do not need it. have to pull in clutch to start moving,after that i do not use clutch unless i am stopping.
How do you did this modification?
I have a 150cc pgo buggy and I want to change the engine. I like this type of engine!
Can you show as how do you that?
Thankyou!!!
I'm dropping a ninja 250 engine in an old tao tao extended buggy frame. I am trying to find the best way to account for chain tension. How did you account for chain tension?
Did you build the chassis or is it off another company? If so which one?
Customized part of chassis and built the swing arm. Started of a kandi 150cc frame and re-did about 50% of it
How much horsepower? Is it 39 or you’ve done some upgrades?
Holy cow this thing rips
what a buggy is that!!i love it
Man this thing is badass
I had a 250 ninja...this is way cooler!!
Excellent build - nice song selection too!
Where can I find info on how this is parted / put together??
Michael Woodsdale thanks man, I have one video on my channel on how I put it together. other than that it was all custom work. bought the buggy and a ninja 250 and started building.
depending on how nice you wont it price ranges from 4000 to 6000

I’m making one of these but with a zx6r 600. How did you sent up your whole clutch handle and everything
what is the wiring like with those engines? did you just get the whole wiring loom?
SED71 built the wiring harness myself
thats pretty cool, im currently having wiring troubles with my project, any chance you have a schematic of your wiring
that thing looks pretty sweet 👌👌
Nice kart, was the engine swap pretty easy?
that gear shift though a skull
You may have answered this, but what type of kart/buggy is this?
Hayden Lewis, its a modified, kandi 150cc

That thing is sick.. Is that a custom frame?
part of frame is custom.
What's the original frame?
kandi 150cc
As soon as he gave it to it i was like whoa
JessiePVlogs lol, dont think anybody was expecting that part. Everybody probably thought i was just cruising around
How much kilometrs this driving?
awesome from motorcycle to bugy
Excellent Creation ¿What are the Buggy Measures?
Shows my age... when i saw ninja 250 I thought "shrieking inline 4 revving to the moon.
Best go kart ever
What type of Sequential Shifter and gearbox is this?
where did you get the frame? I can't find any of them without the engine and all?
bought it brand new, just to tear motor off and fab it to fit the Kawasaki 250. buggy was 1800 new.
kandi 150cc
that's awesome, thanks for the info, would you recommend going with a 250 or 600
600 would be carzy! I think in something like that it would just want to drift all the time (break tires loose). but its also about whats available. I think either motor would work fine.
I'll see what I can find. appreciate the replies. awesome build
This buggy is dope. Do you have a detailed build list for it?
cool lil buggy
Andres Terrazas thank you
Shows you dont need a big motor 2 get that thing moving nice engine choice
what kind of frame did you use? or was if custom fab?
Logan Irish, kandi 150cc frame, re fabed frame about 40 to 50% custom work
This was a really enjoyable video you just got a new subscriber lol
Thanks bro
Amazing
Looks like so much fun
Nice work ,fun bit kit

is a kawasaki ninja 250 engine faster than an average 250cc UTV engine? Sorry for the noob question but this thing seems spritelier than the 250cc UTVs I have been looking at
yes, they make more horsepower and are a twin cylinder engine. it also hits 16,000rpm where your average atv/utv motor only hits 9,000 to 10,000.
Hello I’m in 2021 and is wondering what go kart this is and where u got it so if u would put the link I would appreciate it😊
what you use a camera ?
WoW !!!! Nice place . So huge .
Que bien va ese motor me encanta tío. Cual es el modelo de buggy?
I’m getting a buggy soon what’s a good one for a 13 year old
for a moment I thought the video was in 360-degree format :v
What kind of motor is on it cause i have a motor off of a 200 big red threewheeler
Ethan Rogers hi, the answer to your question is in the title of the video.... 250cc kawasaki ninja motor
