I vaguely remember back in the early 80s seeing oil bath disc clutches similar to motorcycle wet clutches. There was several people in my area with racing go carts both 2 and 4 stroke some running on gasoline and some on alcohol that ran the oil bath clutches. I haven’t seen or heard of one in years so I’m guessing they aren’t made anymore.

To test this, is good to put the clutch & spin something with something to measure how much it pulled.

Have a 19” tire mini bike 224 pred. W/ 24mm pwk, 265 cam, 13-1 comp, custom head. The bike has 50-1 gears, I use a tav2 with a spacer that limits the travel of the driven I also run the 3600 rpm white springs, on the driven I run the stock spring in a 4th hole I drilled past the max setting, I’m still looking to try the yellow spring because this motor likes to rpm

Hey im running the same set up as you more or less but I have a comet 30 series TC. I cant stand how fast it switches to its high gear. I'd love to rev it out to 4 or 5k b4 gear change so I got the blue silver springs which I believe are 3800 springs. My issue now is if I'm in high gear hauling ass then let go of the throttle I'll have a nice coast until 4k-issue then it drops low & it's violent as hel. How does your bike react with the stiffer springs? I cant find any info or a single video anywhere lol fmll

I had a juggernaut cvt but it wasn't what I was looking for too much rpm at cruising speed so I put the stock centrifugal back on with a modified clutch 13t at 7.6:1 I'm getting a 12t centrifugal for 8:1 on a 19in tire

Some years ago my friends and i rented a cabin inbtbe mountains of Tennessee. We took our carts (yard karts, BKS Grasshoppers) and ran up and down the mountain. The karts with convertors were faster going down, but the clutch karts were faster going up. My kart was fastest going up, but i was cammed and governor deleted.

i hope this doesnt come across as offensive to the bigger guys but if your a big guy like over 160 your gonna need to spice your engine up as well as mess with the gear ratios smaller fellers like myself 135 lbs can get away with with a stock 212 and stock gearing on my coleman ct 200 u ex i get 25 mph un modified (although my governor is defective from the factory) and coleman stock gear ratio is 10 to 1

Is there a car like clutch? Like let go of hand lever to engage like a motorcycle or car?
@SportbikerNZ8 ай бұрын
Closest would be a dry clutch found on very few motorcycles. I doubt such a product exists. Requires a clutch housing to hold the mechanism. You'd probably be spending more than the cost of a minibike if such a thing existed.

CVT's operate on centrifugal force and can be adjusted by using different springs. There's no reason they can't work in any orientation.

@SportbikerNZ8 ай бұрын
If you watch the video you will learn you can tune adjust clutch with different springs. A really light spring in the centrifugal clutch would force it to engage at low RPM. Or you can change the gearing so you're going a lot slower for a given RPM.
