we had an RM250 powered one in the early 2000's with the short chain and a 1to1 sprocket ratio that 150mph exaggeration isnt that far off. the math is there to support it. ours had a 1/2 ratchet instead of the kick start. had a BMX brake lever on it too hooked up as a throttle actuator for starting. this was before the current age where everything is on camera, so we would ride it on the highway at night. this vid brought back a rush of good memories.
Don't get bummed out. That was the first real shakedown! Things happen. Believe me. It doesn't always go as planned. I'm old and grey and it STILL happens! Lol. I think you did a nice job. Good to see young people take an interest in creating!
years ago i built a off road gocart powered it with a air cooled cr250 that had been ported and polished it was geared 2:1 and we used to get 70mph plus out of it!
I bought $200 worth of stuff from Go Power Sports yesterday. I did it because they support you and you don't over talk about them as a sponsor. Cars and Cameras pushes Go Power Sports to the point I want to scream.
I have a Lectron carb on my 2017 Husqvarna TE 300 and it made the bike electric, it’s so smooth everywhere and fuel milage was increased by at least 15%.
Nice job man.. keep working out the kinks.. unforseen problems are gonna happen with a totally custom build..been following since the beginning of this build.. keep tweaking.. you'll get it to where you want it.. SHE'S CLOSE!!!! very glad to see a youngster doing productive creative things.. maybe all hope is not lost
All these people laughing at 150mph. So many negative people. Never doubt some one who obviously has a passion to achieve this goal. Ive seen negative people eat their words many times. Good build , good luck an be safe bro!
At no exaggeration the 1.3 and 1.6 geo motors produce about 50hp Lmfao this kid is a Pretty Fart Smeller.. btw top notch fabrication by a very young genius great work as always Vasily Customs
built a shifter cart with a 550 air cooled honda off of an old 74 model street bike absolutely a blast to ride the roll cage was set up like a late model dirt track car but it would fit in the bed of your truck with the tailgate down
one of the things about motocross bikes that i dont like is the 5 speed close gear ratio gearbox i feel like im always looking for a lower gear in first and a higher gear in fifth. great job man
Awesome stuff! 👍 good to hear it shifting through the gears bro! it's normal to have some bugs to work out when we build from scratch! Keep up the good work! Braaaaaaap!
God bless you buddy you are killing it you are a great example of passion snd hard work and staying humble will be unlimited success God bless and keep up the hard work brother!
Good to see it out an ripping it up! Your gonna have some issues, but you will work them out in due time.. Amazing job so far, keep up the great work young man.
To stop the vibration use pieces of car tire where the motor mounts to the frame also you can use the same thing to mount the seat and the radiators and other things too. 50 years of go-kart experience.
aluminum doesn't like flexing under vibration .. endurance fatigue rather limited ... you need an entirely different mount system, where the whole radiator is not flexing off the mount .. and then put rubber washers between the AL radiator and the steel mounting flanges .. such failures are common on racing kart radiators and fuel tanks.. proper mounting is the solution.
hey those radiators typically mount to a dirt bike on the other flange and are isolated with rubber, the side you have them mounted on is typically where the shrouds bolt to. Would be cool to see them remounted lower for a lower center of gravity, it will still see good coolant temps even mounted lower
Love the video thanks for sharing and when you build stuff like this there is always trial and errors so just learn what you did wrong and fix it no biggie cool 😎 shifter cart tho that thing really cranks and only can imagine how fast it will be once you work all the bugs 🐜 out ✌️👍
Had a kart with a KZ400 on it 40 yrs ago. Had the gastank overhead too..lol but found out the pipes burned through back of the seat and cought my coat on fire.
That little kart is awesome!!! Keep up the great work and don’t let the small shit discourage you. With any build, big or small, you’re gonna have to work the bugs out. Keep up the outstanding work, young man👍🏽
You need to install some type of stabilizer or mount for the Carb and Air Box, you cant just leave it flopping around on the intake boot like that, well, not for very long anyway, too much leverage. You cant solid mount the rads obviously. There's a lot of sorting out to do here, but honestly you have done some nice work thus far man. I'm sure you will figure the rest of the details in time. Tip... Don't ignore how things were done on the donor bike....
I like your work I hope your family supports you and everything you do keep up the good work by the way I know it's good work I used to own a small engine shop
Rebuild your water pump. The water pump seal faces outward to the impeller if it's backwards it will leak cause your motor to overheat good build I love it
Now i get why you drove the wobbly buggy like a go-cart ;) We drove our go-carts weekly at track, friend died in his, volted over and broke neck, died on spot. You got a rollbar on yours, good, but for f sake use gloves if need to use hand in emergency. They do roll over, we did monthly if hit curve to hard or hit other carts wheels. Enjoy zooming around in the cart, it's great fun yes. Nothing like a cart on a well brushed and clean road.
Excuse me, I said 120mph but that was an exaggeration. 80-90 mph will be good enough for now. This thing isn't even close to its full potential.
vp racing mrx 02
Oh man when I heard him say that I about s*** myself I said at least 90 to about a hundred but a hundred twenty hundred-fifty hell no way
Would be awesome if you put suspension on it. It’s amazing how good you are at making things
Top speed * classified😂
Why don’t you run it on vp110. High octane and get a phathead. And that thing will hit 105. Guaranteed
Look at this guy right here! You never stop working towards your goal. Love this project. Can't wait to see what new projects you have instore !

Very cool. Nice work. Way to keep a positive attitude, education is expensive no matter how you get it, and you are learning tons!! Keep it up.
I have been waiting for this so long! Ohhh and the sound ❤️ right after 0:04
years ago i built a off road gocart powered it with a air cooled cr250 that had been ported and polished it was geared 2:1 and we used to get 70mph plus out of it!
Think to install front disc brake, stop 200kg kart at 100+mph isn't a joke, anyway great job!!!
That's sick man!! You are an inspiration for me since some day I want to build my own stuff
This is an awesome build dude. I really want to try something similar. Congrats on where you're at with this.
Nice carb !! Loved the videography/music during the rollout.
Thanks man!
Taking It To Mexico Goes Right Up The Street 😂
That's the inside joke to the garage built community. Implying it's legal in Mexico
🤫🤫🤫🤫
finally someone builds a kart with some guts! nice work mate, that looks hella fast!
I bought $200 worth of stuff from Go Power Sports yesterday. I did it because they support you and you don't over talk about them as a sponsor. Cars and Cameras pushes Go Power Sports to the point I want to scream.
That really helps me out! Thanks sir. It does suck though they did away with the 5% discount their parts may be pricy
For the vibrations problem, I would mount the engine on silenblocks, or something with the same function

And ill add, 150mph is very reasonable. Laughing like its unrealistic just shows they have no true idea.
Thanks! Yeah even 115mph will make me happy
I cant believe its only 240lbs. That is crazy for the size and amount of tubing!! Sick power to weight ratio
Yeah it came out decent! Ill have to show that on camera. If I would have used 0.095 wall tubing it would be even lighter
0.9 Geo metros.
Absolutely cash.
Lol that had me dying
Hell yeah. That shit was funny
At no exaggeration the 1.3 and 1.6 geo motors produce about 50hp Lmfao this kid is a Pretty Fart Smeller.. btw top notch fabrication by a very young genius great work as always Vasily Customs
Thank you!
Time to give it away to a lucky subscriber haha
I weeeeeesh XD

Nice carb, You will never regret buying the best product you can afford.
should have bought a smart carb
Nice. That looks insanely fast!
Put radiator on rubber mounts to avoid vibration ;)
Yeah, the cooler is wise to put on the gums.
put rad a lot lower and behind motor on side where it’s doesn’t puke hot fluid all over ya if your have headgasket issues later on Pimpin
your awesome mate you have done really well. wish you we're my son seriously. keep up the great work and positivity.
you did an excellent job, you have gold in your hands
Awesome stuff! 👍 good to hear it shifting through the gears bro! it's normal to have some bugs to work out when we build from scratch! Keep up the good work! Braaaaaaap!
God bless you buddy you are killing it you are a great example of passion snd hard work and staying humble will be unlimited success God bless and keep up the hard work brother!
Props for the build 💯
This video got you a new sub today a couple of months later.
Nice vid ! I have been watining !
Clear float bowl is genius!
Good to see it out an ripping it up! Your gonna have some issues, but you will work them out in due time.. Amazing job so far, keep up the great work young man.
I love that UPS Parts delivery feeling too
That's a blast. Absolutely amazing
SWEET!..I saw my sticker!..you rock bro!
I was just going to say that I saw your sticker in the video
Gotta work out the bugs..dont get bummed..that was so sick..the video is made perfectly..great job..🤜👍
Thanks man
So excited I hope she stays running nice
I want it!!!!!! Lol this thing is super nice and sick good job keep it up ..cant believe its finally done
You have a lot of skill mate. Well done
Love the builds, you’re living my dream
To stop the vibration use pieces of car tire where the motor mounts to the frame also you can use the same thing to mount the seat and the radiators and other things too. 50 years of go-kart experience.
Definitely mount that radiator in rubber mounting blocks. You built a great cart. You are getting the bugs out of it. Love the videos
Subscribed. Nice build brotha
Thank you!
Insane man ur a amazing fabricator💪‼️

Awesome 🤘🏻🐿🤘🏻 two squirrels up 🐿🐿
I've been wanting on this like forever
Keep up the good work fix all the bugs and it will be reliable soon enough
Great Job it will take a bit to work out the bugs love the viedo keep up the great work brother
Awesome project. keep up the good work
Excellent Vasily!
Vasily I'd really like to say you're a very talented person

Sure sounds like Mexico, (Rooster in background) lol I like it.
7:07 wow first time ive ever seen anyone stall a 250 im impressed
“Were taking this thing to Mexico” 😂😂
Martinn lmaoooo I’m subbing
Love the video thanks for sharing and when you build stuff like this there is always trial and errors so just learn what you did wrong and fix it no biggie cool 😎 shifter cart tho that thing really cranks and only can imagine how fast it will be once you work all the bugs 🐜 out ✌️👍
I wasn't able to see, but were you running a ruber bushing between the mount and the radiator?
top job,cant wait till next vid ,keep it up.....impressed ...bolton uk..
Great vid bro !!
G'day you learn by your mistakes ,you learned a lot that day . I agree with some other viewers rubber mount the motor & radiators.
Sounds really nice 😎
Had a kart with a KZ400 on it 40 yrs ago. Had the gastank overhead too..lol but found out the pipes burned through back of the seat and cought my coat on fire.
Nice i had seat break i went into motor had clutch muffler and chain blisters all over my back trying avoid ppl that nvr work day in there lives
Kz400 kart was a wicked thing I bet. Those KZ motors were badass.
Holy crap that goes nuts
Nobody:
Every Bike build: lectron carb
Sick man love that ride
That little kart is awesome!!! Keep up the great work and don’t let the small shit discourage you. With any build, big or small, you’re gonna have to work the bugs out.
Keep up the outstanding work, young man👍🏽
"little kart" bro wat😂
im building one finally... i like this design for sure
I think I like this build better than all the Gixxercarts and things of that nature. 2 Stroke is 2x the fun!
This kart is amazing. I need one of these to satisfy my need for speed.

It’s been a while. Nice to be back!! 😀😀
Awesome choice on lectron
I like your work I hope your family supports you and everything you do keep up the good work by the way I know it's good work I used to own a small engine shop
Super awesome build
Sweet ! Can't really rip it until everything broken in anyway,and that was Awesome !Great job.
Rebuild your water pump. The water pump seal faces outward to the impeller if it's backwards it will leak cause your motor to overheat good build I love it
You had me at kick start 🤟
Nice Shake-down run. 👍😎🏁
and your definitely gonna want Front-brakes.
This kid and weld and weld better than me I have no experience but he's going places lol yeeeettt
WOW !!! What a RUSH👍🙏❤😍

That thing is so fast! Sorry I missed it!
That thing is scary fast!!
Love the build bro
Thank you! Im very excited to get it finished
I’d say never run hard past your trailer and rig, one stuck throttle or missed shift wouldn’t be a pretty accident
Looks badass with the wing!!
5:23 definitely not a stop sign 😂
2STROKE TUNER I peeped that too. Lol
Stop sign with identifying cross street names
1970 920 thank you for saying it so I didn’t have to. (Common sense morons)
Ya doin great , keep it up
Never tried a Lectron I’ve always heard they were good stuff. I always kept my Mikunis pretty spot on so no need. Nice cart, b careful
Problem solving is part of the game, and knowing when to ignore stupid comments.😉
Some times you can't beat the cabutor that came with it no adjustable don't seem right luv you're awesome cart I want to get one great video
So freaking cool!
I just bought and put those same radiators on my yz450f
Glad I finally talked you into a real carb ;) now to get you running some better oil (edit: engine oil is good, I was referring to the caster 927)
great .. some minor issue are normal for build from the scratch.. how is handling, can you get heat into front tyres?
Its decent, It would need front brakes to handle nicely
Very nice to see this monster on the track and I`m looking forward to see more of it! Keep it safe, too! ;-)
Stuff may have went wrong but it was sexy while it was tearing up! Can't wait to see the new mods that will go on! 🏁💪😎🏁
