Razor Ground Force Electric Go-Kart |
|
|
My son got this for his 8th birthday, and he loves it! Assembly was a snap, since almost everything was already put together. The manual (as others have said) is a joke – they’ve changed the design of the cart since the manual was written, and the updates aren’t in the printout (or on the web site). There’s conflicting info about how to charge the cart too – but I figure it should just be treated like any other rechargeable battery. You’ll need a large smooth paved area for this cart – it doesn’t work too well on uneven or rough pavement, and though it can go through packed gravel, I don’t think it’s a good idea. So far it’s been quite durable, keeps a charge for a reasonable amount of play – we feel it was a good purchase and well worth the money. |

250cc Go Kart, Water Cooled 4 Stroke |
|
|
I purchased two of these, a blue one and a yellow one. I knew that I would need to make improvements immediately to make them reliable. I was OK with that since they were only ~$2,200 each to my door, and I couldn’t build my own for much less than that. The frame was solid, but heavy. The CVT transmission and the Honda Helix (CN250)-copy engine are both very good. I was very impressed on the performance and durability of the X-mission and engine, and I rode them hard. Had to adjust the valves on the yellow one once, but it was a cinch with the external cam adjusters. The clearance ~9″ was more than enough to ride everywhere my friends small 4-wheeler could go. Over rocky stuff and everything, just not real fast due to suspension. And power was fairly decent! The seat is great, and the tires are OK. Steering system is very good. The chain and its tensioning system are excellent. The rear axle had collars that needed to be removed to allow the hubs to be tight. I also added a thick lock washer to make them tighter, and had to reef down pretty hard on the hub nut. The rear hub splines definitely need a tighter tolerance in manufacturing. The shock absorbers are worthless, and I upgraded to Fox shocks designed for the skis on a snowmobile. Some nice balloon-type tires would be a huge improvement in the suspension, and I would have done that if I had been able to keep them. It could add clearance too! These buggies are not ergonomic at all compared to a 4-wheeler. You are entirely dependent on the suspension, and cannot use your limbs for bump absorption, as you can with the 4-wheeler. So basically, take it easy if you don’t want a sore back. I also had to replace one of the radiators due to small holes. The Yamaha YFZ-450 ATV aluminum radiator fit nicely with very minor modification (one mount hole drill). The stock master brake cylinders are also useless, and I upgraded to Volkswagen bug/bus cylinders, which are easy to find thanks to popularity among sand rails and other homemade buggies. The brakes were still not quite as good as they should be for disc-type. The paint on the yellow one was fine, but the blue quickly faded from a beautiful deep blue to a dark blue then whitish. WTH? This one bothered me more than the other issues, …I mean, how hard is it to get the paint right these days? The lights on one were intermittent, but after much hard riding. I was getting all 4 wheels off the ground, so…I didn’t expect not to jar at least something loose. An easy fix. Don’t use the antifreeze that comes with it, get the normal good stuff at your local parts store!!! Needed to adjust the shifting cable. It was still somewhat hard to put into reverse after adjustment. It also jerked a bit at first when in reverse as the X-mission changed over. This is not uncommon with CVT type X-missions. Just take it easy on the gas when starting out in reverse right after shifting into it. The manual was a good laugh, as expected. I would have been disappointed had it not been. Had to replace and add lock-tight to several bolts/nuts, but nothing major. Keep a toolbox handy, especially for the first few months until you get the bugs out. Overall, tons of fun and definitely room for improvement. Be prepared to upgrade components! For the money, you can’t go wrong in my humble opinion, especially if you are considering building one. The experience of riding these on 4-wheeler trails is something else. Very different from a 4-wheeler. We will miss it! I hope this helps you. |

Go-Ped Super Go Quad 30 Gas Powered Mini-Kart (Silver) |
|
|
The New Super Go-Quad 30 is without doubts set to blow away any competition.Based on the highly successful platform of the original Go-Quad, the Skunk Werks set out to improve it even more by integrating what top racers have been doing to get the extra edge on the track and by making those proven modifications standard!A Live Axle Super-Go-QuadThe most important improvement in the New Super Go-Quad 30 was for PMW to leave the traditional one wheel drive design by going to a shifter cart inspired live rear axle, making the new Super Quad 30 two-wheel-drive and two-wheel-braking . Unlike all prior Go-Quad models, the Super Go-Quad 30 offers 100% of pure equal turning in both directions and puts an end to pulling towards one direction under braking. This major enhancement provides users with the most perfect handling capabilities. It gives them safe and absolute control while also achieving much faster track time.The chain driven/centrifugal clutch on the new Super Go-Quad 30 comes standard. It is set at a slightly lower gear ratio than the previous models to provide for the best acceleration off the line and out of corners.Improved front end geometry for the most superior handling performanceA newly designed steering plate has been added and allows the inside cornering wheel to turn slightly sharper than the outside wheel. Often referred to as “Ackerman Steering”, this new feature produces excellent responsive turning. After extensive testing by PMW “Skunk Werks” and proven performance on the track, the caster – the angle in which the front wheels tilt s back – has also been optimized to 17 degrees to reduce “pushing” and consequently offer excellent cornering.The 2 full inch added to the length of the front axle also contribute to the Super Go-Quad 30 excellent stability and handling performance.The handlebars have been ergonomically enhanced. Wider, lower and slightly forward, they provide for a more aggressive location. They |

Quantum by American SportWorks – 150cc 9.9hp Full Suspension Go Kart |
|
|
Offering all the sophistication of a high-performance ATV in a compact package, the Quantum full-suspension go-kart is a great ride for people ages 12 and older. The Quantum is outfitted with such features as a dual-wheel, automatic torque-converter drive that’s perfect for hills, grass, mud, sand, and other tough terrain, along with a 150cc, 9.9-horsepower, air-cooled engine with an electric starter. As a result, the Quantum not only holds up to heavy use and runs quietly, but it also zips around at up to 39 miles per hour–fast enough for all but the most reckless dune and trail riders (if that’s too fast for your taste, a 20-mile-per-hour speed reduction kit is available). The Quantum is also built for safety, with four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes that stop quickly and three-point lap/shoulder belts to protect the passengers. And thanks to the rack-and-pinion steering and independent front and semi-independent rear suspension, the Quantum is extremely responsive and smooth. Other features include adjustable bucket seats designed for style and comfort, aggressive 19-inch front and 21-inch rear tires for maximum traction, four adjustable coil-over hydraulic shocks for performance and versatility, a reverse gearbox for convenience, and such standard equipment as a rear rack, flag, enclosed drive train, side splash guards, fenders, lights, and a speedometer. The Quantum, which measures 34 to 39 inches from the seat back to the pedals, carries a one-year warranty on the engine.
