Off Road Racing Shifter Kart Part 1
Ойын-сауық
In this video we are starting a new project, we are building an Off Road Racing Shifter Kart using a CR 125 dirt bike engine. I want this project to be small and fast with full suspension. I first start off with making the front hubs so we can have front brakes. then I start working on making the front A-arms and the beginnings of the frame.

That's exactly why people enjoy watching your videos. No pre-prepared empty speeches, no unnecessary music, no ridiculous effects. It's completely natural. People and channels like you are very valuable to us in the KZread garbage filled with fiction
I love your bloopers man, they make you like real and relatable, everybody makes mistakes, everybody gets annoyed at something

I feel like he doesn't need to go through all those retakes just to get some nitpicky wording right. He could just correct himself and keep going instead of having to start over endless times... Imo it wouldn't make the videos worse. -Me and my coworkers allways have fun whenever someone makes a hillarious wordsalad. Some of them even become catchfrases or permanent expressions. It is just spice on life! :) -We renamed jigsaws into Rabbitdicks because one guy couldn't remember the name when asking for one and instead said "I need that effin saw that moves like a rabbits d'ck!"

I think your 1 of the only karting youtubers that hasn't built their selves a nice big workshop, yet your 1 of the only youtubers I watch, apart from Grind Hard Plumbing inc, who can & does fabricate all their own parts. Which is amazing to watch, especially from 1 so young. Your fabrication skills have gone from strength to strength where as some of the others I won't mention have got worse or at least not improved.wot so ever. If anyone on KZread building go karts disserves to treat themselves to an awesome fully loaded workshop, its you. . Luv ya work, thanks for sharing all these years . .

For some reason it seems like the bigger the shop the more corporate the channel becomes, then it becomes less interesting.

Chain-drive is your deal!!!! Man, I love your projects. You have cornered the market on YT!!!! DON'T QUIT BEING A ROLLER CHAIN LOVER! Sure glad you edit out a lot of the complaining, and such. 😄 Even if you didn't, I'd still be a fan. Been a fan for many years. No plans to stop, when you introduce your next roller chain project. ....Do however wish you would look into some German-made roller chain guides from Wippermann, and other German, and Austrian makers. Stainless steel square stock, with plastic roller chain shaped continuous slides. All enclosed, the werks!
And thus, another build begins.... I wish I had a neighbor like this. Maybe not a next door neighbor but at least a few properties away.... 😂

out takes were hilarious! This looks like a bad ass "CHAIN DRIVE" project! Can't wait to see it rip!

Love the channel, you're like the mad scientist of KZread 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧
This is your channel! Build them how you want. I will always watch your videos regardless.
Maybe this would be a good project to try push-rod suspension? Get the shocks up and out of the way to make room for steering and that pipe.
You've gotta be one of the best fabricators of this kind of stuff here on KZread Great start and can't wait to see it ripping
Chris , I love the way you fabricate. You're very fluid and visionary. Your projects are a reflection of your skills. Very few can do what you have done with the limited resources available. This project will be a good one.
It doesn't matter to me how your projects are driven, I enjoy watching you build awesome projects. You do great. And the outtakes are hilarious 🤣🤣. You're doing great 👍
Looks like the intro is the hardest part of this project. It should all be downhill from here. Looking forward to the progress of this "chain drive" machine!

Never expected you to put the engine in front.. I like how you don’t just take the easy way out and do different stuff. Love the channel

10:30 The tire falling in sync with the music was a nice touch.
Your intro was worth the admission price to loan. The stop motion editing is my favorite touch. Great content.
Small projects are such a breeze, back to the roots. Your skills and planing have improved so much since the grave ninja.
I can’t wait to see how the front geometry works, my brain is hurting trying to figure out how this is going to handle. Keep doing your thing!
Probably the hardest working dude on KZread.
You basically built a" I " beam/ " A " arm combo! Move the shocks further out on the " A " arms, then the shocks towers need a cross bar over the engine! Moving the engine forward to allow steering.

Came here to make this comment. Positioning the shocks more vertically will allow space for the expansion chamber, moving the engine forward 👍
Im stoked youre making this. I was just talking to my roommate (we fantasize about building shifter carts) he wants a 1000cc, but i want a 2 stroke, lightweight, full suspension shifter cart. Think its sick youre doing the motor in the front too. Exactly what Id want to do. Still my favorite youtube channel by far!
Another great video Chris, I think the two seat 4x4 is a masterpiece of engineering personally.
I’ve been watching you for 5 years now. It’s crazy how much better your builds have become. Thanks for the videos!
In you out takes, you can see how much effort you put into your videos above and beyond the actual building and time investment into projects
your videos are the best on youtube. I get exited every sunday

@@ratherBweldingChrishey bud. I've been wanting to tell you to check out the front suspension on the 24 can-am maverick r. It could solve a lot of the limited space while trying to get castor/camber without bump steer issues. I'd love to see your take on the geometry in a build. If you used something like the can-am suspension on this it could free up some space to mount the brakes so they're not taking up precious real estate.
Omg I laughed so much at the outtakes at the end of the video! I can relate so much. When I edit my videos on my channel, my wife insists on watching all my outtakes. she can’t believe how many attempts I have at saying things… I always just go for it and work it out as I go…. Never have a script. I love your channel buddy! Amazing skills with the suspension design. It’s exactly what I want to do to the ford ranger I built.
your builds are genius... keep doing what you do!!
I think that chain drive is actually better because it has less drag than a drive shaft, it weighs less and allows you to build some nice suspensions in less space on a small vehicle. Don't mind what people say, just keep doing your stuff and having fun, at the end of the day they are watching you for this. 😉

Chris, I know the comments can be hard to ignore at times, but don't feel the need to justify yourself to anyone who has an issue. Build a whole damn rig out of chains, who cares. You do you!
This thing is going to rip! The smaller builds with bike engines are my favorite

Haha that’s exactly how I’d be lol. And different strokes for different folks. If people don’t like it they can build their own. Looking forward to this build.
This will be a interesting build can’t wait to see what you end up with
A front engine design. Interesting. All I've seen by other builders, are sidewinders and 4 bangers across the back of the seat. (As far as Hi Perf. builds) We know you will make it work. Is 4 wheel too much? Ya, a lot more parts. Also too short and not necessary. Oh well, we can dream, right? 🤔🤗😆😉
This is gonna be sick.
Its been so cool watching you build this baja... ive literally gone online since watching yours and I'm now doing a deal with a real one, Totally inspired by your build. Awesome to follow your projects. Keep up the good work bud. Have a great day. 🤟🥳🇦🇺 Ad from OZ...
Looking forward to this new build Chris.
I like the tires on the wide rims!
This is a sweet build! Lots of pro-modified race cars have the engine and the driveline behind the center of the front axle for weight distribution. I would try to get the engine behind the center line as much as possible without being uncomfortable. After watching further i see the engine is back more. This is becoming a high interest to me! Maybe try rotating the expansion chamber 180° and see if itll work better that way.
I like the blooper reels at the end 😂
I’m looking forward to seeing the finished project! Very cool! ❤
Outtakes we’re AWESOME!
Totally Loved the Rant!

Beautiful work as always :)
She’s gna be loud , she’s gna be awesome 😎 👌🏻🤘🏼🤘🏼
Really like watching your builds mate keep them coming.
Damn, those gears near the groin area is scary!
This is my dream build right here. Let's go!
Hercules drills are awesome. I went from DeWalt to Milwaukee to the Hercules brushless and I absolutely love them but I've never tried the Bauer.
I think on alot of other people's channels they talk to much and alot of it is nonsense. So don't beat yourself up. I watch cause your a very talented welder/fabricator.
Love the bloopers man
Dudes got skills one man show come in guys keep it positive 😊
I love the bloopers, so relatable
Big fan of the tatra(ish) stile front suspension, excited for the is build!
Dude I love your work and how meticulous you are throughout your builds, keep on killing it bro 2 smoke is the way to go....BRRRAAAAAAP BRAAAP!!!!
The Yard Dart from Cars & Cameras was a remarkable off-road kart. It will be a project that balances handling and traction to a high degree. Chris' project may inspire Cars & Cameras to upgrade the Yard Dart. You'll need to be careful when driving at high speeds, as it can be quite scary!
So far any weak points are not too bad and you have walked away from them. You build safe stuff and all these are one offs anyway. No worries. I'll be here for it regardless.
Love your channel and videos but it will be nice to see you actually full finishing one with paint and everything

Now you're speaking my language! Two stroke! This thing is gonna rip!
That engine came out of the small project death trap
I like the idea for the new project and can`t wait to see more on it but you are going to have to make the front of the frame wider and the A arms shorter/smaller or a different type of front arm all together to fit the engine up front im not telling you what to do but you would have more room for you feet and pedals and such if you did. see you in part two 😀
These builds are so sick 🤘🏻
Just wanted to say I appreciated it when you commented on drill. Nice to what tools are going to hold up or do what they say they will.
I just want to thank you for all you amazing build, and for sharing them with us. I love that you are not afraid of going big. i was a big "watcher" of some of them other guys. But it just got so boring watching them using the same engine(or same version) just about all the time. And to be honest, those brigs and Stratton(clones) engines are so slow and powerless compared to just about anything else. So keep up the great work. ANd long live the 2 stroke.
Awesome! I'm currently brainstorming a front engine build for my Rocketa buggy using drivetrain from a krf 750. (Both street legal and insured already 😉) should start in January 👍🏻
front mid engine and suspension on a shifter kart is such a good setup
Thanks for including the bloopers, 😅😅😅. Your awsome dude!!!
Love the bloopers that was wicked funny
I get alittle choked up when i see the old fire bricks. the street quad will live on in legend.😥

@14:20 Just so you know, you definitely want the shroud on your band saw motor's cooling fan. I suppose if you are not running it continuously it will be OK. Keep an eye on the temp if you have to do a lot of cutting. 😁🤩
Working hard first video in great job
Should have did the shocks in the front & rear horizontal, that way you wouldn’t have to go up so high with the frame & it looks cool & different. You don’t need crazy suspension, you just want enough for when you’re ripping tracks like cars & cameras track on grass & terrain like that.
i made front hubs out of two of those lawn mower deck spindles then little stand offs for bicycle rotors and brakes. i lucked out, the 4 holes on the deck spindles were the same pattern as the wheels, you have to build them backwards looking on account of you need the material to attach the tie rod and link, which, by the way i was able to bolt on. was the least of my problems
