🚫 Cheap ATV ➡️ GO-KART ✅ |

We took this old Chinese Lifan ATV that was rusting away and someone’s backyard, chopped it in half and turned it into a slidy drift go kart.

[@Tenasedeinc]

i want one

[@MrMACLO]

How much I'm n a wheelchair dis would be good for me

[@lindseyhunt86]

Can I get one built for a big guy like myself?!? Please, would be a blessing if possible

[@jonslg240]

Definitely ❤ keeping the bars.. I'd rather have more leverage than a steering wheel.. Even if it was bars vs power steering I'd rather have the bars

[@christopherroberts22]

Why !? This is low end garbage! ..

[@evanenglish1695]

I suggested this to some of my friends, and they all told me "thats stupid. Why not just ride the quad?" im glad im not the only one who thinks it would be cool

[@eduardomeza7279]

Yeah even if it's the same weight and power it would be a completely different driving experience, especially with a different seating position, CoG, CoM, and wheel base.

[@geoffkeller5337]

Those friends are short sighted.

if you build it, they will come

[@jebuskrist7280]

Hey that's a good idea. I was debating on selling my Chinese Quad. Once I saw this, I knew what needed to be done. Thanks for the idea👍

[@fearporn4386]

Same 😂

[@pain.497]

Have a welder, some parts and a dream

[@depressed_kiwi4920]

I hope you make the idea reality, good luck.👍🏾

[@FattSlapper]

Man I just did a bunch of work to my bike and look back and think I should've recorded it for other gearheads. If yall do a build, you should post it!

[@Gigachad_97]

Time for a GSXR-600 swap🫡🫡🫡

and a les schwab credit account at that point haha. ive seen em with that 600 and they look like death trap burnout machines

[@stitch684]

[@user-cr9cc6ou5z]

Thats what i thought cuz that just looks like 2 or 3 hours of fun transforming it to a gocart quad and 20 mins of fun driving it untill bordome of low speed

I’m in college right now, and I wish I was home building stuff like this 😅

Yea but mfs who go to college do this as a job cuz companies can trust them no hate

I’ve been dreaming of doing this exact build with a bigger quad for years

[@rustyshackleford3320]

I'll just buy one cause I don't have a shop but I do own a 150cc cool little go cart, looks like a mini doonbuggy

[@markfaulkner8965]

The funnest gocart i ever had was a homemade frame with a 250cc motorcycle engine, super touchy steering and riding lawnmower tires. Thing was a rocket that would rooster tail gravel when you punched it at any speed!!

[@FloridaMan0561]

Hell yeah! When you have mechanical and fabrication skills you can build yourself awesome machines for cheap!!!

Handle bars for a go kart is crazy

[@jarvissanchez6753]

Tht is sick! I want 1 soo bad. Great build guys 💪🏽👍🏽

[@rdy434]

I got one for sale

[@BroncosandTBRaysFanatic]

It's a cool idea, but I would definitely add a roll bar just in case you flip it accidently. Safety is always #1.

[@craftyard9217]

The giddy giggle gets me every time bro , its just that exitment that is hard to explain

[@Mr_AlcoN]

Really nice build but would call it more a crosskart than gokart.

[@brentfu1119]

You're living my dreams! Love it, don't stop!

[@austinansell1149]

Hell yeah!! Nice build

[@Mtthebro]

That was creative and I saw that buggy yes sir bravo👏

[@CAROLDDISCOVER-FINDER2525]

We looked at one with a humongous engine on back and tires and I would say it's probably 40% the length of a rail. But it's one seater Go kart.

[@dattoDJ]

Usually the wheel track makes this pretty unstable, which has been the biggest thing preventing me from doing this. Looks like this works well though, I'm going to have to try it now!

[@Stereo_spitfire]

I absolutely need one of these. this, is literally a masterpiece.

[@user-it9br7mi1o]

Heck I put plates on that thing and at the gas station every week, yeah I'm putting 5 pump ⛽ 2...

[@Foundry_made]

The longer wheel base makes that thing so driftable. I love it.

[@Br0ken_Rob0ts]

This is something new. I feel it should be called a quad kart. Like off road go-karting should be a thing.

[@monadking2761]

Nice, with a little work you get a whole lot of fun.

[@torresbobby1561]

Should make a roll cage for it🔥💪🏽

Classic, A friend and I chopped up a 400cc snowmobile into a 4x4 gocart back in the day. Was alot of fun and fast.

[@mohammed5705]

That giggle before testing was full of excitement 😂

[@swyzVyw]

I really can see why keeping the handle bars makes sense. You wouldn't have as much fun with a traditional steering.

[@rlew8095]

LOVE the ATV bars on a GoKart (well...y'know whatever). About to go unearth my hilarious little GoKart.

Going 60 on the mini quad with your elbows touching your knees is funner

Those wrenches were a nice touch..🫡🫵🏽🤣

[@javierpaz4689]

Me encantan estos chicos y sus garajes. Mucho trabajo, mucho ingenio y mucha diversión. Bravo!!!

[@Drunken_Hamster]

Give it a wider track width, more steering angle, and a de-dion rear suspension and it'll be PERFECT.

[@jakubprokopec2169]

First time I've seen someone cut & shut a quad

[@LordHolley]

Awesome!!!! That looks like a really fun project, and even more fun to ride.

[@jamestsquid]

[@shannabohrer3735]

I love the handlebars. So cool, guys!!!

[@racingforthebest8300]

That's freaking awesome

[@randomdan85]

That's freaking awesome. I would love to have a ride like that. I wanted to build one before I got in my accident but now look to get one instead and now all hand controls for safety. Ahhh this lil video clip inspired my designer mind again. Yall stay blessed 🙌 great job 👏 The rear suspension was mint well done 👏

[@stevegarroutte8947]

Very cool but I would put a roll over loop just to keep the old brain bucket and spine safe

@@TIRESIDE Oh yeah, I found it as soon as I checked your channel page. Thanks!

Nice! I grew up with quads and go-karts. I always thought about how cool it would be to put the motor from my Honda 4trax onto my two seater manco go-kart. It would have been wicked fast for sure.

[@TIRESIDE]

My first go kart was a manco dingo 👍

[@samholcombe3129]

Pretty damn cool, I’ve often fantasized about building a go-kart with suspension and ATV tires with like a 600-750-1000 cc street bike engine and tranny, this looks a lot more feasible, at least it is a good base to start with and already has a drivetrain.

[@pierrebikelifetv9832]

Nice work bro 😎

[@dbgfpv6728]

That is sick.

[@SquadronLeadr]

A million times better than a quad. I knew when I saw you mocking up the design that it would have epic weight distribution. 👌

[@TheMrshawnpaul]

I like that you kept the 4wheeler handlebars; that looks fun to mess around with

This was a good build but not a new concept Honda made these back in the 80s it was called the Odyssey it was what I would consider as the first UTV

[@kalyelogic1849]

I love the "maybe" and giggles hahaha

[@jwaseman8487]

I just had flashbacks of the Honda Odyssey (obviously not the minivan, dumb they used same name). I always wanted one but this seems like an even better way to go especially since I believe the largest stock engine in the honda was a 350. Great job guys, she rips.
