it really doesnt need that much work, the brakes work, the steering works. it really needs a motor and paint. and a little cage work to make it adult friendly. ive gotten offers for $50 but for that price i know ill never find another one. ill probably end up holding onto it. id let it go for like 150 anyone have a dirt bike motor laying around??? ---

yea, that was the original plan, but its hard to find a motor set for less than $1500. any 2 stroke dirt bike motor would be fast enough. ---

They might not be from newer bikes but an aircooled 4cyl will move that thing along a lot faster than you will need anyway. Besides i have found that its easier to mount an older bike motor into a go-kart, than a newer motor. Simply because a lot of the mounting points in a newer bike motor are designed to make the motor a load bearing component, and are thus all over the motor as opposed to near the botom where they are easier to work with. ---

thats what im thinking, plus if its out of a motorcycle it will have electric start and enough juice to run headlights and stuff… any idea what complete bike sans title, wheels, seat, etc will go for? i am getting pumped. ---

Really the prices vary. Like I said. Get something older and air cooled. That way you wont have to deal with routing coolant lines and all that shit. I would suggest you look into front brakes but you are probably going to spend more on those than the kart and engine combo are probably worth. Get like a mid 70’s early 80’s bike that someone has had kicking around the barn for a few years. Clean the carbs, change the fluids, mount it and you should be good to go. ---
