We've had one for several months now and my kids ride it hard on rough ground. I put on some 18" diameter low pressure quad tires on the back and it now rides much, much better. Also added an intake kit with larger jets for more power.
@@ralphweaver1176 where did you get the wheels and the intake kit? I'm thinking about doing the same to my mid xrx and we can't find oversized tires for it
A neighbor gave one to my kids because it was just sitting in his yard. After cleaning the carburetor and changing the spark plug. She started right up. Kids love this thing.
Being able to grease it properly is very important. At 3:55 you can see the boot protector already de laminating from the frame. Pretty cheap looking but if this showed up at the house when I was a kid, it would be a very very good day.
The key off position doesn't stop the engine all the time. The kill switch directly cuts off spark. I had my ATV in the off position and it was still running
I was reaching for my wallet when I saw how low that sprocket is to the ground. That is a deal breaker as I have some property that is rough that I think my son can ride on, but would need more clearance than that! Probably would help to get bigger diameter wheels for it, but now you have to find wheels that will fit those hubs as well as be concerned about raising the center of gravity. Nice review though, thanks.
i own a 300 xrx and it has held up fine. bought on good Friday at my local dealership. cost 5 g's but has all sorts of cool stuff on it. i made a review video on my channel if you want to look at it. but i can tell you they put the gas tank in bad spot. i saw one of these in the dealership and thought there neat. my dealer ship had a special 4 person mid xrx. it was neat
I am thinking about buying this same go cart.I just had 1 concern. The guard for the sprocket.I see you have a pretty level field to ride on. Have you had any problems with this guard? thanks
You said you were 5'8" and you could fit in there with your knees bent a little, so me being 5'9" this could easily work for me. Good review but why no test drive or even start up.
....That's how all Lead-Acid type batteries such as motorcycle and lawnmower batteries like that are shipped. It's just how it's done, even when you simply purchase the battery alone, you're going to get the battery, and the container of acid. Depending on the battery brand filling it it's different, whether you have to simply tip the container over and stick it into the battery and let it sit so that the acid disperses properly, or fill it via a tube from a container. Don't quote me on this, but I believe it's because of UPS/FedEx regulations and other shipping regulations. Now, if you get a dry cell type of battery, you don't have to deal with all that, you just pop the sucker in. My buddy owns a motorcycle shop and we had to fill batteries all the time. It's really not that big of a deal, you just fill it and make sure that the acid is properly soaked in and dispersed.
+MikePlaysIt It wasn't a big deal to fill the battery. The battery was dead within less than a year though. I replaced it with a better quality name brand motorcycle battery. The original was extremely cheap and lightweight.
Hooked on Photography Yeah, it's really not that big of a deal. But really if I can do without it I will. That's why I prefer dry cells, especially on a bike. I'm not a huge fan of acid. lol
I want to buy one of these used for me and my wife to ride down to the lake and ride trails behind my house. Together we are 275 lbs. You think we would make it up a pretty steep paved hill ? Some spec I read said max of 12°incline
This one is a bit cramped for adults (I’m 5’8” and my legs are bent pretty well when I sit in this). That being said, it’s hard to say without seeing your hill. Paved is easier though. I weighed around 225 at my heaviest and I was able to drive this up a fairly good hill in our field (just cut grass area). If I were you I’d look at a larger one.
Purchased used needed new carb put new carb on my trail master 6.5 horse mid Must put fuel in carb to start won’t accelerate dies after you press gas pedal What do I adjust to get running Is new carb defective
@@t.n.s.hilton3697 I had to replace the bearings in the rear axle. Well, maybe not the axle but that thing they call the 'jack shaft' and that was around $30 for parts, but a real pain to get those bearings out (had to buy a toll for that). I did also replace the carburetor in hopes of having an easier cold start (ran great once started) because it just wasn't easy to start from day one unless you really pulled the cord hard (electric start wasn't spinning it fast enough to start like that). It does start easier now. That was an easy job and only about $20. We honestly haven't used the go kart very much, so it's hard to say what else might have been an issue over the years if it had been used a lot more. Based on what I've seen, I think it would hold up for us with the mild terrain we have here (it wouldn't get punished much on our land).
I dont think this guy has high opinion of Chinese made products?! The one thing answered here is that a medium size adult can fit in it. Answered my question.
196 cc 6.5 hp just like HF. The engine can be tuned to 9+ hp with a 22vm mikuni jetted, intake, open element air filter, 1 inch header, thinner head gasket, 18 lb valve springs Open the crank case and 12-15 is obtainable.
Dubit Fast that's what I thought. It leaks on purpose. There has to be an air vent. Every motor I have including my high end Honda do the same thing. So the only thing he could complain about it...lol. And a review with no start.....
It doesn't have a gearbox. It uses a pulley and belt that tightens as the engine speed increases and that pulley is connected to a small shaft that turns a sprocket and chain which is connected to the axle. Here's the parts manual: bvpowersports.com/upload/fileurl/20123811234148381.pdf
I just purchased one for my sons 7th birthday.. how old your child is who is riding in it? I'm about 5'11 180lbs.. Can i assume me and my son will both fit?
My son is 10 and I am 5'8". I can just barely fit inside. It's very cramped for someone my height. But as far as the power goes, I was surprised that it actually has plenty of power to pull both of us. I don't normally ride with him though, I just have him take me up to the field where he drives so I can watch and then I get out.
Oh, that was included and it’s actually just a tall stick you can use with a flag on top to make yourself more visible to someone else on uneven, terrain, to help avoid collisions by someone not seeing you in the distance.
Nice review on this go cart. Like you said the cart is kinda online purchase-able only which is kinda a bummer. Are you happy with the machine still? Is it running well for you yet? Have you found any concerns with it yet...Appreciate you time to reply thanks
After letting my son drive it for a few weeks now, overall we are very happy with it. The cheap battery is already dead and will not crank the engine, but when I first got the battery out and installed it, I knew it wouldn't last very long and they're not that expensive anyway to replace with a good one. It's so easy to start with the pull start, you don't really need a battery unless you want one for the convenience.
Hooked on Photography You said the frame was fairly built. I'm guessing you never rolled it? I have the exact same kart, blue too, and I have rolled mine twice. Once at 15 mph with one person, and a second time showing off with two people in it at 30 mph. No bends or tweaks and it still runs fine. I say it was really well built from experience, and I'm am thankful for the roll cage. And the suspension held up perfectly in the rollover as the kart slid after flipping. Nice review though. Btw, I am really light and short at 13, so it fits me perfectly. They also changed them since this video, I got mine 6 months ago, and the seats are more comfortable, it has turn signals and mirrors, and 2 more lights on top.(I didn't install them and I'm glad because they would be broken from the rollovers) The suspension came uninstalled. We had to put the shocks on,(my dad and I) and put the rims on and inflate the tires. I would say a great buy, we got it on sale for $1,200 and $150 Shipping.
Hooked on Photography I edited the comment with some more info. I am a kid who should be hurt seriously, so I'm lucky. Driving four wheelers on two wheels and jumping them. Also about the suspension, it handled a 2 foot jump fine, but I had to tighten the bolt on the engine mount.
Did you pay the extra money to have it assembled? They charge you $100 bucks to have it almost assembled totally. I was wondering if they ship it the same way weather you pay the $100 or not and its their way of making an extra $100. Thanks. Is it holding up?
No, I did the final assembly myself. It's been awhile but I think the wheels needed to be put on, the roll bar installed and some basic things like that. If you have basic set of tools and are mechanically inclined, it's not too hard to put together. Be prepared to have a big wood pallet and metal shipping frame to dispose of too, once you get it assembled. It's holding up ok. It had a few issues here and there even though we haven't used it much, but not too bad overall.
I worked for a place that sold them every single of them came back with in two weeks for machincal work, 3 engine locked up, chains come off, steering breaks, bolts from the engine fall out, hard starting, leak oil, and bad igintions, stay away cheap cheap cheap, also dangerous had reports of people flipping over and getting hurt
@@ThePhotographyHobbyist we purchased 2 TRAILMASTER MINI XRXR just a bit smaller but comsept is the same. Fun For All Sports, in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. No shipping already put together...paid $1700 each. Unless you like putting things together I'd recommend letting a dealership do the putting together.
There is absolutely no way possible to ever legally drive this on the road. In order to be able to register any vehicle for street use, it must come with a title from the manufacturer that does not say "off road use only".
My son honestly doesn't drive it very much so it's held up very well other than the shaft that has the pulley and chain on it. The bearings went bad with only several hours of use. It was squealing pretty loud and it seemed to be going slower. I lifted it up and spun the wheels by hand and could tell the noise was coming from that shaft that has the chain pulley and belt drive on it. The bearings were pretty cheap to buy and it works great now, but it was a royal pain to get those bearings out.
I'm not sure about outside of the USA, but in the US there are several online retailers. For example: www.familygokarts.com/shop/gokarts-off-road-buggies-46/trailmaster-mid-xrx-gokart/tm-mid-xrx-blue
I think it might be easier to just give you the 'seat back to pedal' distance and then you can measure whoever you have in mind to see if their legs are long enough to reach the pedals :-) Pedal to seat back: Adjustable from 31.5 to 37 inches
In the manual it says it is 25 but I did something to mine that bump it up some but now it is back to 25 But mine is a literal piece of crap I have to fix something on it after every time I drive it
'Jackshaft' bearings went bad after less than 20 hours of use. Battery was bad after no more than a year. It is nearly impossible to start via the electric start...just cranks and cranks and hardly ever starts so you need to pull it hard a few times to start it. It runs perfect once you get it started, but for some reason it just hardly ever starts when using the starter. Other than that it's been fine. For some I imagine the no start when using the starter is a deal-breaker but for me it's not a huge issue since I can start it for my son with a few pulls usually.
Hooked on Photography thanks for the response! How did you tell the bearings needed to be replaced? Even after replacing the battery you couldnt get the electric start to work? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on one for my 8 year old daughter very soon so I appreciate the input greatly.
It was squealing pretty loud and it seemed to be going slower. I lifted it up and spun the wheels by hand and could tell the noise was coming from that shaft that has the chain pulley and belt drive on it. The bearings were pretty cheap to buy and it works great now, but it was a royal pain to get those bearings out. Even with a fresh battery it just seemed to crank too slow to start it. It seemed like it should have been fast enough to start it, but I'm not sure why it wouldn't start. Pulling it by hand is easy and you can yank it hard and fast which seemed to do the trick for starting it. Not sure if mine is the only one like that, but that's how mine is. Overall I'd say it's not a bad machine and for the price it's reasonable. I guess I'd just be careful if a person that buys one is not all that handy with do-it-yourself repairs because you may end up needing to fix a few issues now and then.
Gday it is what it is cheap the rugrat had a quad with the 110cc motor good for what it was was what i call 2nd gen better build and welds just she broke motor mount a shock some bushes i had a mate that made some out of i think its grade 5 nylon? she use to jump it 1 day she say it makes a funny noise i ask where about on the track it makes it mmm ok its called valve bounce lol flat out on the strait. but bits are cheap cheers
$1,500 back when I bought it 9 years ago. Prices have gone up since then. My son outgrew it. He barely used it and I was able to sell it for nearly what I paid for it.
It’s low because it’s a go kart dude. Besides you whining about putting the 3 easiest things on a toy, not a bad review. It only goes 25. No need to slow it down.

'Jackshaft' bearings went bad after less than 20 hours of use. Battery was bad after no more than a year. It is nearly impossible to start via the electric start...just cranks and cranks and hardly ever starts so you need to pull it hard a few times to start it. It runs perfect once you get it started, but for some reason it just hardly ever starts when using the starter. Other than that it's been fine. For some I imagine the no start when using the starter is a deal-breaker but for me it's not a huge issue since I can start it for my son with a few pulls usually.
Hooked on Photography thanks for the response! How did you tell the bearings needed to be replaced? Even after replacing the battery you couldnt get the electric start to work? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on one for my 8 year old daughter very soon so I appreciate the input greatly.
It was squealing pretty loud and it seemed to be going slower. I lifted it up and spun the wheels by hand and could tell the noise was coming from that shaft that has the chain pulley and belt drive on it. The bearings were pretty cheap to buy and it works great now, but it was a royal pain to get those bearings out. Even with a fresh battery it just seemed to crank too slow to start it. It seemed like it should have been fast enough to start it, but I'm not sure why it wouldn't start. Pulling it by hand is easy and you can yank it hard and fast which seemed to do the trick for starting it. Not sure if mine is the only one like that, but that's how mine is. Overall I'd say it's not a bad machine and for the price it's reasonable. I guess I'd just be careful if a person that buys one is not all that handy with do-it-yourself repairs because you may end up needing to fix a few issues now and then.
Gday it is what it is cheap the rugrat had a quad with the 110cc motor good for what it was
was what i call 2nd gen better build and welds just she broke motor mount a shock some bushes i had a mate that made some out of i think its grade 5 nylon? she use to jump it 1 day she say it makes a funny noise i ask where about on the track it makes it mmm ok its called valve bounce lol flat out on the strait.
but bits are cheap

$1500 ??? Where ??? You mean $2500.
$1,500 back when I bought it 9 years ago. Prices have gone up since then. My son outgrew it. He barely used it and I was able to sell it for nearly what I paid for it.
that sprocket sucks!
How can you tell and what do you replace it with? Mine has been kicking off the chain and needs a new set up.
That go kart is nothing but trouble
No name because they're all copies, 😂
It’s low because it’s a go kart dude. Besides you whining about putting the 3 easiest things on a toy, not a bad review. It only goes 25. No need to slow it down.
What type of battery is it ???
It’s small, similar to a motorcycle battery.
