well i finally convinced my dad to let me buy a shifter kart. so i found what i think to be a pretty good deal on craigslist for a kart. 700 bucks for it. its a "DINO" chassisfront and rear breaks, 1979 rm125 motor. full shifter linkage and clutch. but no side pods or front plastic bumper. i am goin to replace all the bolts/nuts with new ones becuase these seem a little rusty.
i have a new power plant for it... a 1991 cr125! dont like the bulky cooling fans from the rm125 and my arm always hits it!
so i brought it to the shop started to disassemble the whole kart. i wanted to wash off the dirt.
started stripping the parts
making a new floor panel because there was a crack in the old one
i sprayed it with some primer to keep it from rusting over the next few weeks.
sanded, primed and sprayed the tie rods, and shifter linkage red
then i polished the rear hubs a little. should i paint them red? or leave them shiny??
sanded, primed and painted the frame gloss blackk!
starting the reassembly process
well thats all for now until tomorrow. later guyz!
