March 16, 201412 yr Author comment_679555 Gixxer karts coming along well, final welding and reinforcing should be done by friday and the its time to make it pretty, pics soon! Report
March 18, 201412 yr Author comment_679657 So i went off to do some work on the Gixxer Kart today. Started with removing the abomination dad called welding and got a family friend to give me a hand ;) Anyway heres some pics! Leaves plenty of room to run the exhausts, and room for a heatshield so we don't melt our backs while driving :P Pretty much have to setup the rear axle, take the engine out, final weld it and its paintjob time. Then mounting cables etc and the front engine mount, should hopefully be finished soon! I would like to however acquire a much smaller rear sprocket for higher speeds, because thats what we want in a homemade GixxerKart ;) Btw why the pictures are sideway i don't know :/ Cleveland :) Report
March 21, 201412 yr comment_679771 INSANE mate..! lengthened the wheelbase which is a smart thing, lol I'm sure youd already planned to shield it, but i reckon that chair wont last long with the heat produced Report
March 23, 201412 yr Author comment_679925 Lengthening the wheelbase is a smart idea hopefully! Its coming together nicely.. heatshield is being put in place too. However it probably wontrbe running fot long periods of time so it shouldn't get too hot we hope :P Edited March 23, 201412 yr by Feral4K Report

June 5, 201412 yr Author comment_683789 Bit of an update: did a fair bit of gusset work today all in 5x50mm steel mainly just to tie it all together. Engine goes back in tomorrow for final fitment of everything like radiator wiring fuel system piping etc , going a bit slower than we expected ( cause now its getting a little overengineered) but do it once and do it properly! just don't know where were gonna drive it????? and after strengthening... pretty much the same thing done on all the barwork, trust me well break before it does lol! more to come soon!.......
