@@youbannedmealready5825 it's got vented rotors and hydraulic disk brakes. It's got modern Bridgestone tires. When he pulled the back wheels off the purple anodized aluminum hubs were still nice and bright. Anodized aluminum parts fade. Especially purple and red anodizing. The fiberglass parts aren't old, dried and splintered. The clear plastic material they use to make the fuel tanks usually gets a dirty yellow brittle tint to it it after about 10 years. The engine looks to be an air cooled IAME motor that's still in use today. That and I've never seen a road racing cart ever in the history of everything with mud all over it. Ever. Those karts are 2" off the ground and have slick tires. You can't get a road race kart to go in a grass field. Much less mud. I own an engine shop that specializes in two stroke race karts and motocross engines. I also hot rod Stihl and Husqvarna chainsaws for people in the logging industry. It's an older cart that's been sitting up for a while and someone rubbed mud all over it to make this video. That's one thing I know for 100% certain. They rubbed mud all over it. And if you do want a vintage 2 stroke engine restored. Get in touch with Absolute Engine Solutions in beautiful Lake Lanier Ga and I'll get ya hooked right up.

How long does it take, until the solution does it's job? Oh, and one suggestion: also apply the solution to the threads. It always destroys the overall impression, when a nut is removed and a new and shiny thread becomes visible.

Don't be fooled. This is a nice Kali/CRG chassis (fairly recent judging by rear axle size as in within the last 25 years) with what looks like an IAME/Parilla rotary valve 2 stroke.direct drive setup, probably one of the mid/late '90s- 2000s Sudam 125cc engines. This isn't something that anyone with any sense would let get into the condition shown. Someone hosed this thing down with muddy salt water then let it sit outside and rot for months just to make this video, and to add insult to injury they installed 1/4 the horsepower by bolting on a junk lawnmower 4 stroke. Just sad.

[@jaredlinde590]

[@williamdavis4268]

Yall when the 4 stroke went on it went down hill-- I can't see why anyone would run a 4-stroke back when I was racing (over 45 years ago) at the time a modified 4-stroke Briggs would cost about $1500 and a Yamaha KT 100S 100cc piston port was about $600 blue printed on the Yamaha you ran gas Briggs methanol on the Yamaha you adjust flex and differing gearing and that was it the Briggs you had cams, porting, valves, carburetor, clutch and the list goes on and it was no faster than the Yamaha.

[@AJRestoration]

That is infact a 12hp 390cc 4stroke engine. When set up right that engine will tun circles around the old motor. BUT I agree, he should have saved the old motor instead of replacing it with a modern motor.

Inspiring me to get an Go Kart …😎😎🚀🚀🥁🥁 Absolutely great restoration-without doubt !!!✌️😎😎🥁

[@facbostero]

Not really a restoration, but a deep cleaning XD

[@NeverlandSystemAngel]

That purple on those sprockets is amazing... LOVE the work. Great restoration!

[@francescomereu682]

hello, great job, what brush did you use to smooth the rust the one inserted on the grinder? thank you

[@dokataarnold4520]

Came out looking great don't get me wrong. But I definitely would have stuck with that original 2-stroke motor.

[@michaelzelft8668]

Después de varias carreras, me sorprende que siga en una sola pieza el Go-Kart de Mario. 😅

[@shize9ine]

Needs a 2 stroke rotax! great job though!

[@lewisfoster4584]

Awesome, this has inspired me to do the same on my nitro RC car that's been sat on the shelf for about 2 years covered in nitro fuel and dirt 😄

Now that’s beautiful anytime you restore that’s rusted piece of junk & take so much time & effort to restore to make it beautiful? Job well done.

[@bespokefencing]

That Kart has only had a couple of buckets of dirty water chucked over it! You can see the water tracks on all the vertical surfaces. I'd expect a neglected Kart to have a rusty axle and brake disc, oxidised alloy parts and a bit of dust on the horizontal areas. Satisfyingly result though! 👍

[@aib0160]

You can restore the plastic bodywork quiet well using linseed oil and white spirit. There's a few videos on KZbin showing how to do this and that and new decals is probably the easiest way as they'll get knocked about pretty quickly. I'd suspect she'll need new bearings all round too.

[@MCJ91]

Lil tip: Remove that sprocket off of the GX390's shaft, and put a centrifugal clutch there. The way the clutch works, is that when you start the engine, the kart won't move on its own, then, when you increase the RPM, the clutch kicks in and it starts to move. I've put them on all my mini motors like that, they are cheap and easy, and if you really want to put a dime in, you can get the gopowersports Juggernaut torque converter, i put it on my minibike and it works great!

[@guyhefford]

Replacing the original 100cc engine with a gx390 is absolute sacrilege! I was enjoying it up until then. You can pick up period engines for about £200-£300 (the price of a gx390)

[@mindyourown472]

I used to race Karts in the late 90s / early 2000s, and this took me back to those days. I raced Rotax Max 125cc. Not sure why you put a Honda engine on the kart at the end, but it was cool to see something from my era being restored - nice work :)

[@shidfard]

Because they can't fix engines LOL

[@leonjohnsonjr3331]

Because they probably didnt have the equipment to start it

[@leonjohnsonjr3331]

No clutch

[@4ndr3wv.43]

the video is beautiful, until the moment you mounted the 4-stroke engine on the chassis 🤦🏻 leaving the two-stroke was too difficult? it would have been wonderful to restore the engine as well

Всё хорошо, но когда он в него воткнул этот "электрогенератор" то дальше смотреть стало не интересно. Лайк за проделанную работу👍

[@dougchow]

me encanto el video, pero como dijeron comentarios abajo.. hubiera sido genial ver la restauracion de ese motor de 2 tiempos tambien

[@AlphaMachina]

In surprisingly good shape considering how it was left to rot. Good materials.

[@rmgrimshaw23]

Tell me you’re in a different country without telling me you’re in a different country (other that the USA) “Walks in with adidas track suit on and use Bosch power tools” 😂 I love your videos I could watch them for 12 hours straight

[@giancarlostefani8417]

Più che un restauro, io la chiamerei una bella PULIZIA. Comunque un bel lavoro. Ciao

[@michael7620]

That's a sweet looking go cart love the color nice job

[@tomwareham7944]

No pitting on any of the so calledrusty parts , no oxidation on any of the aluminium parts no rust seized nut and bolts and the hardest part to believe , who would leave thousands of dollars worth of speed equipment on even an inoperable throw away ? Don't buy it I bet it took longer to patina it than it did to clean it , you still got me to watch though so you reached your goal .

[@kasuraga]

you can really tell on the exhaust system they spray patina'd it with stuff to rust it. The way all the dirt looks so evenly distributed looks weird too

[@ianbaxter8199]

Those rear hubs are new

[@marby602]

Excellent restore ! I hope after you went to all that trouble, that you installed NEW bearings in the wheels & axle.

[@user-kk2oj2hy8k]

👆👆congratulation you have been selected among my shortlisted winner's.👆 👍👆

[@dilshah]

Great video .U need A PREESURE WASHER FOR A POWER WASH WHICH CUT YOUR TIME IN HALF.ALSO A PAINT SPRAY GUN

[@ronelsen6585]

Simple pressure wash would have been about 70% of the restoration. But this was a good deep cleaning!

[@alerodriramos]

Que pena pensei que íamos ver o bom e velho 2T em ação mas ficou muito boa a restauração 👍

[@nickchaproniere7573]

Love the Honda engine but where was the original

[@RingsnThingsWorkshop]

That seat at the end 😳 👌
