I really like your channel, you guys look like you have a lot of fun. I am 59 now, but when I was in my 20's I had a rail buggy I built out of a rail frame kit and bought an old VW for the engine and front steering and it was a blast. So recently I bought an older HammerHead go-kart that only had about twenty hours run time on it, but had sat for 5 years. I wanted something for a little fun and for my grandkids. I only paid $100.00 for it and thought I would make it my summer project. All the steering seals and tires are dry rotted and back axle is frozen, but I will take it apart and clean everything well and replace what needs replacing. Watching your channel is what got me excited, so thank you. Stay safe and keep having fun.

Lovin this build RB! Always excited to see your work.

Loving these video's lately, keep it up!

That thing is sick, man when those upgrades go on God help you. Total blast man

Have been waiting finally!!! Thanks for your work

Amazing how karts can make us grown men smile so big! When riding i have to remind myself to stop smiling so much to keep the dirt/bugs out of my mouth ;) Keep it up brother!

my husband & I loved this video of the NEW 670cc Predator engine. We just recently acquired a MINI MONSTER TRUCK GO KART w/212cc Predator engine & it's speed is ok, but I think we're gonna try your CHANGING THE SPRING for the governor to see if we can get it to go a lil faster. The 670cc engine is BAD TO THE BONE & not a bad price either. Thanks for sharing

congratulations . your channel is growing supper fast .

Hey Greg, My son & I installed that manual clutch yesterday, all thats left to complete the job is routing and connecting the cable. We had to torch 1/2 half of a 1" round tube away to allow enough room for clearance for the chain. Other than that, after watching YOUR insulation video of the clutch, it was a smooth install. We ent to the site for the clutch and it was down for, I guess maintenance , but I told my son " I would rather follow RBG'S install instructions anyway . Anyway a huge ATTA BOY & Thumbs up to Greg & RBG'S channel for the go kart hobbyists needs.

Thanks man im glad it could be of help. Let me know what you think of it after riding.

On the governing arm there are different spots to connect the bigger spring on the governing arm and the farther back you put it the more the governor holds out , you can do this on a stock 212 and make it go to 5000 rpm stock

I'm just getting into small engine stuff this summer. you have really taught me a lot. before i had the minibikes that i do, i didn't even know what piston rings were. with a lot of dedication and a slew of red beard videos I'm now looking for the right engine to put a big bore kit on to fit my minibike. looking at 200cc honda 4 speeds but its difficult with a 1970s frame. I've learned everything from gear ratios to the difference between a tav and a transmission (started researching how they work too). a lot of it has to do with you. I still consider myself an amateur, but this comment was just to thank you for putting what you know out there.

These karts look like a really nice rig to start off with. You can always upgrade it as you learn to work on small engines.

I looks like the whole frame is bending due to the style of rear suspension you use. It looks like a lot of fun. excellent job.

Hi Red Beard, my name is Ben and i live on the east coast of Australia in N.S.W an hour north of Sydney. i just wanted to say thankyou for your great video on this Go Kart build im really enjoying it. i feel your frustration with the governor problem i too hate anything (Standard)!!!! so its a passion of mine to tweak all things that cross my path. I've only just recently discovered you but im glad i have!, because i too have a Go Kart, a Drifter kart, and need ideas how to get the most out of her. keep up the fantastic work brother and im really excited to watch all of your videos. i love your workshop too mate. 🤠👍give my best to Mrs red beard and your kids too. take care mate.

Ive done my share of hf generator vids cuz i wana get one but was curious bout the motors. The 212cc is beast at $100. I dont have a kart to hook it to but im glad yall do. Just curious you ever thought or have done making one of these into an offroad buggy?

What are the two hoses for that are connected to air filter housing and the second is connected to the top of the carb? What or where do they connect to?

@4:04 "Mrs Red Beard" lol

i think puting a manual clutch and a 3speed trans with reverse would make that that just scream on and off road

I’ve been brainstorming ideas on a pulling tractor build. I’d like to take the transaxle out and do a solid axle with a sprocket but would like to know if that clutch set up is good under stress or not.

I like it, i think with some bigger tires it would change it enough you wouldn't have to change the gearing. The 670 is awesome i just don't like the price of it. Can't wait to see it done.

adjust the tension spring on the drive pulley it has three settings. it is normal built in the center hole. the first hole is mainly accleration second is for a little off road and still flat ground. and third hole is completely off road.

Its gona b a monster

on the muffler... cap the forward facing end and perforate the rear facing end with 1/2 inch holes

Love it

i like from belgium nice video +1
