Building a Bolt-Together Go-Kart Kit from GoPowerSports

[@hexhead5732]

What a great idea if you don't know how to weld thanks for this Assembly video

[@SirNC89]

I wish I knew about this a few weeks ago. that would be an excellent Christmas gift.

[@cole7750]

All of those bolts prolly make it weigh more but I’m sure it’s more structurally sound d and now all it’s lacking is one of your extreme engine builds! Good video

[@dananderson7378]

The company I work for decided to move from welded frame conveyor belt assemblies to a bolt together design. The bolt together conveyors are loose and wobble like crazy compared to the solid welded frame conveyors. You're gonna have a hard time convincing me that this is just as good as a welded frame. I would love to see someone that isn't sponsored by Go Power Sports review one of these kits.

Build break and repeat did a great job designing this kart!

[@Black66]

Thanks! Yes, it’s a well thought out design 👍

[@Biokemist-o3k]

Really awesome go-kart....I would have never thought that a go-kart could be bolted together and hold well...This looks well designed and very well built...Such a cute little engine..I know you will feed it and water it to have it grow into a 420 or a turbo 420 twin engine some time...lol---John

[@Black66]

Thanks! Yes somehow it will end up with more power!

Woahhhh no way the quicker fix r upper ripper kart this is siiiiick 💪🏼💯 more bolts the Husaine himself 🏃🏿‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️🏃🏿‍♀️⚡️💨💨💨💨

[@sconniejohn]

I really appreciate your efforts to make things like this accessible to people who can't/won't weld, but dang, that looks like more work than actually learning on a simple flux mig set up. Nice work, as always!

[@dekoldrick]

That 98cc engine is going to magically turn into a 212 at some point XD

[@deshawncurrie9974]

Or 420 lol

[@Black66]

Yes magically it will lol

[@williamgosvener47]

212 with CVT/VTC and a fw/reverse seems like a more magical act

That was great to watch! Wish I was a kid again!! Thanks for the video!

Man with all those bolts it reminds me of an erector set when I was a kid

Durn it! Looking for a 2 seater so the Mrs can whip around the former golf course across the street with our toddler who loves speeeed!

[@Skiridr22]

I love that kit, but can the brake be converted to a hydraulic disc brake

[@ralphcantrell3214]

Love your channel. I just want to add that where I live, some cranky old neighbor would call the cops every time I started up an engine.

[@Black66]

Our bikes are street legal in Arizona. Check out the street legal videos on the channel.

[@drfeelgood65chevy]

⁠@@Black66I’m in Chandler AZ and bought 2 new Coleman BT 200X mini bikes for wife and I, and had a Karen threatening to call the cops on me, so stopped riding and have been trying to find somewhere to go without getting hassled. I’ll try to find your street legal videos but do I have to register and insure them?

[@Black66]

@drfeelgood65chevy Yes, they are registered and insured

[@ralphcantrell3214]

@@Black66 It sounds nice. No registering or tagging them here. I have a Doodlebug with a 212cc Predator and there is almost nowhere to enjoy it.

[@nellareivax]

THANK YOU for your content ! i really appreciate the effort! please never stop! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[@colihon3552]

I swear that reminds me of a erector set I used to get as a kid (10 -12) so much fun. this is a funner version I would love it. good work

[@amandarego9684]

Well, it looks good so it's all good! Great video. I don't know what that thing needs 👍

[@Black66]

Thanks , yes as long as it looks good its all good! You know I will make it faster! 😃👍👍

[@Bobby8451]

Im just worried cause i didnt hear any mention of soaking those bolt threads in RED locktite. Lol Great vid man. Id love to get one of these for myself cause i grew on go carts like this and dirtbikes.

[@minibikemadman]

can you get it without a motor? I have a flat head alky briggs that will run good on this thing.

[@michaelstump6933]

What coating or plating is on those floor pans, and why not paint those, too?

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

I would use Loctite thread locker on every single bolt.

[@johnk6346]

Pretty Good 🤠👍

[@robertyoung7027]

Nice kit

[@WalkerSmallEnginePerformance]

I'm thinking it needs a 263cc or maybe a big block.

[@Black66]

Yes I think so! 👍👍

[@deanmcevoy5191]

I think the extra lock collar on the rear axle was for the sprocket. One on each side.

[@dmann1209]

Solid content and a very nice kit. Would you trust it off road?

[@Black66]

Thanks! Yes it is surprisingly rugged and it doesn't rattle. I think as long as the bolts have loctite it would be good.

[@plesadian3]

I’m curious, how it will hold up, in terms of the bolts loosing up over time. Loctite. ?

[@Black66]

Yes thread locker will keep them from falling out but I will definitely be testing it.

[@JuanCruz-lb6qj]

You should put the ghost on it and build it 🚀

[@mitcrex]

I was thinking the frame would make a bunch of noise but after watching you drive it its probably quieter than i thought

[@Black66]

Its very quiet and tight.

[@lawrencebecht660]

Looks very cool but go-karts I have a lot of vibration due to no suspension after all that's why your welds normally break so it concerns me , will boats and lock nuts actually do the job?

[@seanbrown1876]

That’s awesome

[@DonECook-ob1hk]

if I were to make a guess I would say a 0-30 run would be about a day and a half from the looks of things. I enjoy your fast mini bikes much better. This was nice for a change though.

[@Black66]

Thanks! This was a fun build. I will make it faster!

[@rogermcdonald1607]

David , I think it has a niche for bolting together, but I would recommend a frame that is welded and you assemble as bolts look horrible and will fail. Just my opinion ! 👍🇺🇸

[@Black66]

I think it might be easy enough to tack weld the seems on this beast. 😃😃👍

[@elvynsoria858]

That extra lock collar goes on the inner side of the sprocket

[@david78212]

It’s a good idea, but the nuts really need to be some kind of locking nut. Castle nut or nylock nuts, with all the vibration going on you are going to be tightening nuts all the time.

[@GeorgiaRidgerunner]

what does this kit cost when i went to gps website it was quite annoying and i never found these kits

[@Black66]

I added a link for the kart in the description of the video .

[@GeorgiaRidgerunner]

@Black66 ok ill check it out thanks

[@GeorgiaRidgerunner]

wow 1597 for the kit not willing to pay that

[@Manicarms]

Need to anodized those bolts orange

[@diernosaj]

Hey Black did you get sponsored this kit? The kit on GPS website comes with a 212....

[@mostlyinept]

Comes with a 98 but you can get it with a 212 for an extra 150. A bolt together go kart for 1750 is wild. Not a good deal at all

And no loctite in sight, id be dipping bolts 😅 😱

[@terryjoe323la]

That is an awesome build but as a worried fella I am asking I did not see you use any loctite I know once the engine turn on is going to vibrate and them nuts and bolts can come loose so did you use any loctite wouldn't want to hear about an accident I am a subscriber to your channel I just trying to find out safety reasons for and anyone else 🤔😅✊🏾✊🏾

The tires comes with air ? Because I don't see you using the air compresor

[@scrambler69-xk3kv]

Air may be an option when ordering. Wonder if the shipping is more with the weight of the air?

[@Black66]

I think air is over rated. If you don't use air in the tires then there is no way to get a flat...🤔

[@mostlyinept]

For the price of that kart, they should have thrown in a 212

I woulda welded the bolts together ain’t no way I would trust this design

[@boosted_2j]

People who cant weld should really learn to weld. Its so cheap to start its crazy that people rather not learn.

[@kevdaceo]

What's cheap to you may not be cheap to others.

[@dekoldrick]

@@kevdaceo You also have to learn how to do it right. Bad welds on something like this could get someone hurt or worse if the welds fail.

[@mitcrex]

Imma backyard welder I picked up a harbor freight wire slinger and weld random stuff all the time but my brother in law welds for a living and I would 100% call him for welds on something serious but a gokart boo hoo pick up a cover and learn

​@mitcrex just gotta stay strapped in😁 I've self taught myself and I'm not dead yet🤷

[@GeorgiaRidgerunner]

a good name brand mig welder is over 500 dollars none of the breakers in my mobile home can handle the current draw a mig welder needs then the other parts needed will be 600 dollars plus if ordered from g.p.s. there is no metal supply stores near me my only option is lowes and or home depot and theyre metals are stupidly expensive its likely if i bought awelder and built my own cart i would spend 2500 plus on a welder and metals then who knows how much to have an electrician put in a power pole and wire it to run a welder in my case it literally cheaper to just buy a factory made cart

Not sure if I stand behind your choice of color there.. I mean, it's been scientifically proven that red is faster than blue. You yourself said time and again that nothing else matters as long as it looks good, didn't you? 😁

[@Black66]

Yes but to be really fast the kart needs aerodynamic stickers... 😃

[@sjanzeir]

@Black66 That's a scientific fact. To your credit, though, it's also a scientific fact that the engine does tend to run cooler with the frame painted blue. 😁
