Off road gokart/buggy

Just picked this up to have fun with the kids and grandkids. We have lots of trails to explore here that I won't take my truck for fear of getting stuck. Will be good fun for the kids. It came with the trailer and has a little 200cc motor and the parts to put a 420cc motor. Gonna try it out as it is then decide on the motor swap (I know that will happen :D ). Looking forward to spring to take it out. Should be worth the smiles and miles we'll get out of it :cert:

But yeah, we'll play with it and see how they do first then decide on the motor swap. (don't tell the wife cause that's gonna happen :D ) |
Looks like it's had a good amount of use. Pressure wash, grease everything, and check all nuts and bots :thumbs:

It is great to get the kids outdoors. Not sure what happened when I was young you had to sit on me to keep me inside. Kids today you need a bag of frozen marbles to get them out of bed. At least they get some exercise rolling around trying to get away from them.:rofl:

Looks great, I have driven, never owned-cheap bastard thingy, from ATCs (three-wheelers), ATVs, and the new four-wheelers with multiple seats. Always a blast, they go a whole lotta faster now, so be safe, wear a helmet and a harness. Enjoy, and remove any of that pollution crap!! |

Good deal first thing you want to do is pick it up and wiggle and feel for play in the wheel bearings. A buddy of mine bought one like that the kid took off and a front wheel came off and the kid did a cartwheel.
The right front looks a little cocked.:seasix: |

I bought my grandkids minibikes. Got one 50cc, two 100's, and two 200's. They love 'em. Our back yard isn't big enough for carts but the bikes do pretty good.

I bought an off-road go-kart like the OP's for my grandsons a few years ago. They absolutely love it!! Keep an eye on them though. My oldest grandson broke his arm when he flipped it during a 'race'. He was driving it again the day after getting his cast. He decided that his broken arm was a badge of honor!!

We have two Hammerhead GTS Platinums. I recarb'd and changed the clutch and get about 40 mph with me in it on flat ground, 35 mph on the trails.
One kid's friend has been to the hospital. Nearly broke his arm. Another kid was doused in gasoline when he flipped it upside down. They are on their side pretty. Seat belts and helmets are mandatory on our property. |

I'm already looking into the motor swap, clutch upgrade and torque converter :D We have eight Gkids and only two are old enough to drive it, the others aren't far behind so I'll have it for a few years :cert: |

I have a pre-ride safety review I do. Seriously. The last thing I need is a lawsuit. First thing: keep arms inside the cart no matter what! You might get banged up, but it’s pretty impossible to get seriously hurt unless you put your arm our. The one kid that went to the hospital….yep…put his arm out. Second, helmets and seatbelts at all times. Third, only ONE direction around the trails. We have 20 acres they rid one with blind corners and such. Fourth, if it gets on its side or top, turn it off and get out and away. Just leave it. I’ll turn it over. Do not continue riding. Gas can, and does, spill out. Laslty, if I can see your brake lights from the house, you are doing it wrong :) |
