[@Icerackett]

how did you guys partner with RBG, also did you change any gearing on that sweet ride?

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

He just contacted us through Instagram one day. Stock gearing for now. Might put a larger axle gear on. Get it to accelerate faster and we don’t have the room in the backyard to get to 55mph before needing to turn again 😅

[@Icerackett]

@@TyrannoSilas_Rex thats lucky lol, i would love to get an engine like that for my kt196, gonna upgrade to one of them bk200's from coleman, that will be fun

[@nicholaspalomino5654]

Where did you get those seat belts I noticed you have them in pink and blue!?

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

We got them off Amazon. Just an aftermarket 4 point harness but they stay tight. We had a hard time with the seatbelts that came with the gk200. I’ll get a link and post it.

[@nicholaspalomino5654]

@ thanks so much I appreciate your help!

[@nicholaspalomino5654]

Also what torch converter did you use?

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

@@nicholaspalomino5654 it’s a juggernaut

[@nicholaspalomino5654]

@ 👊🏻

[@chrisweber2446]

Yeah looking for the harnesses too. The Coleman ones a trash and those so many different ones on Amazon. The ones you have would fit my kids great.

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

Im on it! I’ll make a short video with links to the ones we got from Amazon.

[@Xr150hobbys]

Love those tires.i wanna order some

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

They’re awesome! I’ve got a video with the Amazon links to everything needed for the wheel and tire swap!

[@Xr150hobbys]

@ I watched it already thank you! I’m about to do a 459cc build and I’m getting those tires

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

@ nice!!! I’ve got the same tires on my kart and I love them.

[@nicholaspalomino5654]

[@Fatlolojr]

What key switch did you end up using ? Can you send me a link too it? And can you make a video on how to wire it?

[@TyrannoSilas_Rex]

I honestly don’t know which switch it is. It was sent to us by @redbeardsgarage along with the engine

[@nicholaspalomino5654]
