Beautiful machines, excellent engineering and attention to authentic details elevate these karts to the next level. Yes, it definitely helps to have your own fabrication company and engineering degree

Excellent! As soon as I seen the cylinders on the mock engine, I thought - Those are 2 stroke cylinders! (??) LOL

Amazing isn't it. The effort to capture the real car is evident.

The Thunderbug really captures the spirit of the real thing which I have seen at many a Vintage Sports Car Club meeting. I think An English cycle car like the Carden or AV Monocar would make a great cyclecart.

Dennis Thomas built a very nice version on the AV Monocar, he has a KZbin video series on how he built it if you are interested. Thanks for watching.

Kind of curious how that steering worked, wish you could’ve shown more information on that.

If you bent the tie rods that are in front of the axle outward an inch on each side, it would really improve your steering (by improving the Ackerman angle).
@stevevinson60302 жыл бұрын
Good idea, proper suspension geometry does make a difference. Although even a CycleKart that handles badly is still a ton of fun.

@@stevevinson6030 They share much with my toy of choice, the T bucket. And some of the same steering problems occur, usually to builders who don't understand the principles of differential steering. (The two front wheels don't make the same circle in a turn. The inner wheel needs to make a smaller circle, and thus has to turn sharper than the outer wheel. Otherwise, you will get a "scrub" from both tires.)

I’m building a cycle kart here in Australia so my ? Is where do you get the torque converter from . Who makes them and do you really need one or can you use a enduro 4 stroke racing kart clutch 👍
@stevevinson6030 Жыл бұрын
It is a common gokart part. Any supplier there should have them or maybe Ebay or Amazon?
@MrAussieCrasher Жыл бұрын
@@stevevinson6030 no it’s not used on racing karts in Australia they used direct drive clutches with chain drive to the rear axle . Which is what I will use. I even went to a ride on mower shop yesterday to see what they used . They use veritable Lilly system and a gear box on the rear axle . Thanks for your help .
