I like and watch most of the other minibike/go cart channels, but the engineering, attention to detail and design of most of your builds is top-notch and quite impressive. You sir are a true craftsman. 👍🏻
That gearing is spot on, and that CVT sounds like its working perfectly. High acceleration, pretty good top speed, and the engine rpm sounds correct. Probably the best implementation I've seen/heard on all the channels I watch.
Wow, 50 to 55....I could tell she was haulin'. It's a great looking chassis, man....nice and robust! Happy to hear you'll offer them, as well as suspension version. I'm gonna need a bigger garage.......
That's a cool kart....lots of people in comments telling you how to build a go kart....I think this is a free country you can build your go karts any way you want....I like it very cool👍
Great top end. Should put some road tyres on it and the smaller diameter will help with getting it up top end? If you start finding that the final drive sprocket is getting "too large" you can add additional reduction drive 😉
My angelic and long suffering wife wants to nominate Mrs. Redbird as mother of the year considering the size of at least one of her kids! She says she can relate!
Love this, definitely interested in one with the short travel suspension. Please don't change the way you say oil. Be true to your part of the country. That coming from a Californian.
This thing really rips! On the 440cc build video, I was dumb and asked if the Vegas 460 carb would work, what I meant to ask was would the Vegas 460 connecting rod work on these 440? Would be nice to bump up for more torque since VegasCarts no longer sells the 460 engines anymore.
For the suspension version, I suggest lengthening the wheelbase to keep the pedals rearward of the front wheels. You don’t want the first part of your vehicle hitting the wall to be your feet This also means you can/should widen it a tad, which will be a benefit for you making the suspension geometry easier to get right. Also-also look into control-blade rear suspension, you don’t need much room and it eats bumps for breakfast, even with borked shocks (it’s travel keeps the wheel in the right camber further through the travel than pretty much any other style)
I have a mega moto pro with an almost stock tillotson 212, I say almost stock engine, it's got a stage 1 kit. It still new and had maybe 2 hours on it and amsoil brake in oil in it, I bought a magnet dip stick for it from home depot. I also just bought a duromax generator, the 9000 is, that to will be getting amsoil break in oil and a magnet dip stick. Take good care of an engine and it will take good care of you.
No Offense about your size but I wanna say that thing is impressive it’s not crazy fast but it’s not struggling to take off and build speed id like to know how fast it reached on the street, And Fantastic job brother your builds are literally like buying a new unit ❤ it ! 🤙
@5:31 Wife "don't you put your back out" ........ Red "don't you tell me what to do"............ later that night Red's sleeping on the couch as punishment for his sass............ 🤣🤣🤣
Cool go cart build but I must be getting old cause I don’t think I would enjoy how rough that thing rides. I would need something a little more cushy…lol
I really enjoy you video’s and have learned so much, I am crazy about gravy bones, and want to build one like it do you have drawings and dimensions that you sell. I am also looking forward to suspension upgrade
I like it I just love go-karts to boot but 1 thing you should try to do is lower the moter down not as high in the rear because it should be centered better..I like the short frame design too..but it does run good
Hello there Mr Red Beard I'm jumping head first into the mini bike and I have a question what carb would you used on the Perdator 301 for power. I also leave 30min from GoPowerSports
Used 2 of these engines on swaps on my golf carts one stock one with Billet rod flywheel camshaft valve springs Mikuni carburetor both are holding up well been on them for around 3 plus years
Do you think it's possible to mount that engine on a Coleman CT200U-EX? I was wondering if it would fit inside the frame, which it looks like it should.
Love seeing your videos posted. Yal lshould check into stony lonesome ohv here in north alabama for a meetup ride event. Its a huge park and has a track setup too.
Redbeard your mini the Fuckin' coolest ever thanks so much for sharing the knowledge😊😊 you've learned you truly are an inspiration to all of us thanks again we appreciate you and the family for also taking part in helping out my now 4 year old daughter just can't get enough of your videos and same here so please keep them coming thanks 🙏buddy!!!
Have you ever though about putting suspension on your seat? Like on a big truck or tractor. I dont know how safe it would be but im sure its less work and money then full suspension.
Just came across your channel. Loving it! Curious...Is that a grade school pic of Jerry Springer hanging on your wall @ 2:31 in the video? If yes, may I ask why?
Looks like the adjuster sprocket might come awfully close to the other side of chain once it stretches I would have left little extra room but u prob have it just right so who am I I’m sure it doesn’t adjust past where it hits hopefully it won’t stretch that much my minibike rt 200 stretched had retighten it three dif times just be cheap chain tho I’d say got the bike from Walmart .. great video tho this is awesome
Absolutely. I’m the AMSOIL dealer that supports Greg’s channel. Go to. Clovislubricants.shop AMSOIL.com receive up to 25% off. If you have questions, you will find my phone number
A Bridgeport. Get a lathe and build anything in the world close tolerance if yer good. Sell them. I am your size. Too old though. Found out 15 years ago on a used 500 Honda dirt bike. Retired and ought to build them
If it’s that stiff with you on it maybe drop a pound of air out of the tires or half a pound I’d hate to see how it treats lonny 😂he weights what 90 pounds wet 😂😂
Murray KY I'll be there hell yes still 6 hrs away but I'll be there man I can't wait be my first riding event meet I'm Soo excited lol imma bring my no suspension I want back problems noones ever said lol can't wait

They Fab Mini Bike and go-kart stuff on a Baja 1000 chassis maker level🤘
yeah he likes to go out and bash, so he over-builds everything so they can beat the tar out of it. ends up with a lot of seriously good hardware.
@@ghomerhust hey are y'all been getting scam replys on here lol saying message me here you won lol that's not Greg

You have the best Gokart channel on TH-cam.I always love watching your videos.
Can you send me the link again
Awesome built Red Beard ! That thing really moves and cool hand break it works well , I would of made it a little shorter though. BRAVO!
Those are some gorgeous tires on that machine.
my suggestion is 1970 ford grabber blue for the xxl kart. it will look sick with the blue engine.
Holy Moly that is awesome! Throw in some bacon and eggs fried in Amsoil and it's a wrap!
Very cool. I'd buy one , especially with full suspension.
Would look killer bright yeller
Very well thought out build. Can't wait to see you build a bit longer and wider chassis with suspension. Love your videos
Enjoyed the Ride along .
Pretty cool little go getter.
This is a very cool cart! I would be interested if you decided to build frames and or kits to build! Great father son potential!
Love it! I can only imagine what it will be like with full suspension that will be awesome
My angelic and long suffering wife wants to nominate Mrs. Redbird as mother of the year considering the size of at least one of her kids! She says she can relate!
Being a bigger guy myself I love this cart and will love to see one with a little suspension. I would like to build on with the suspension.
15:00 that butterfly 🦋 said Sheeeesh!!!!!
That’s the ultimate cart right there man.
I love the gravy bones go kart for sure suspension would help
With really good suspension that would be the only go cart I would ever buying.
Turkey bay gonna be rough for that rig. But with suspension build up I think it will be a blast.
Love this, definitely interested in one with the short travel suspension. Please don't change the way you say oil. Be true to your part of the country. That coming from a Californian.
8:50 you put a lot of faith in those jack stands! 😅

Great cart, excellent build!

Cool go cart build but I must be getting old cause I don’t think I would enjoy how rough that thing rides. I would need something a little more cushy…lol
at 5.45 . I never heard " Gee Mr. Your real strong! " First time I noticed that. Sorry I always thought of you's when I would hear that.
I really enjoy you video’s and have learned so much, I am crazy about gravy bones, and want to build one like it do you have drawings and dimensions that you sell. I am also looking forward to suspension upgrade
I use AmsOil marine gear lube synthetic in all my boat lower unit and gear cases!!!! It’s actually a little cheaper than mercury quicksilver
I like it I just love go-karts to boot but 1 thing you should try to do is lower the moter down not as high in the rear because it should be centered better..I like the short frame design too..but it does run good
Another banger! Man I love this freakin kart 😎🤘🏼
Great kart, only thing i would do would have put some rubber on the gas tank mount.
Hello there Mr Red Beard I'm jumping head first into the mini bike and I have a question what carb would you used on the Perdator 301 for power. I also leave 30min from GoPowerSports
You need to let MRS. REDBEARD take it for a rip, and get her opinion of the build!
👍👍❤️
As always cool video great content don't stop big guy
I enjoy watching your videos Red Beard. I want to build a v twin maybe for a small airplane or a small car, Honda or something like that
Such a cool build! Any idea what it weighs as it sits Greg?
Sweet ride
I need a gravy bones frame... then I can build it up like you. :)
Gravy kart rides like gravy on the asphalt
Nice. That cool
I would recommend putting some kind of seat belt on your go kart for safety purposes
only if it had a rollcage, otherwise, being shot off the thing is preferable in a flip to it basically crushing you.
How much for the chassis kit, parts list and instructions?
Suspension. Electric start. Add a transaxle with reverse somehow and it would be awesome.
Used 2 of these engines on swaps on my golf carts one stock one with Billet rod flywheel camshaft valve springs Mikuni carburetor both are holding up well been on them for around 3 plus years
do you think running lower air Presher, it might bounce a little less ??
I knew it was going to come out great this could be a legendary c a r t I put GPS speedometer on it
Do you think it's possible to mount that engine on a Coleman CT200U-EX? I was wondering if it would fit inside the frame, which it looks like it should.
Love seeing your videos posted. Yal lshould check into stony lonesome ohv here in north alabama for a meetup ride event. Its a huge park and has a track setup too.
I think we are gonna have to nominate Mrs Redbeard to do a safety check before you do any future test ride, “I tightened everything” doesn’t cut it 😂😂
These gravey bones are ready to order a kit. Yeh brother
Do u think with more power it would drift on asphalt?
What's misses red beards favourite recipe with amsoil ?
Maby we should have miss red beards cooking chanel.??? 😂😂😂🇦🇺🇦🇺🤣👍
Very nice! Would love to give that thing a spin.
Redbeard your mini the Fuckin' coolest ever thanks so much for sharing the knowledge😊😊 you've learned you truly are an inspiration to all of us thanks again we appreciate you and the family for also taking part in helping out my now 4 year old daughter just can't get enough of your videos and same here so please keep them coming thanks 🙏buddy!!!
Go kart looks great. Do you think you will put suspension on it?
Well........do you need to steer if your not moving??
There was a way to do independent axles and put a break on each axle that would be really cool
It would be pretty sweet to put a little 500 cc street bike engine on it that sucker would fly!😂
Hey could you help me i dont know how you get your gokarts to climb hills my belt will jus keep slippin and i wont me going anywhere if i tried that
What size sprocket are you running on the rear axle? I have a 420 predator on my buggy and it is super slow.
Man I want to fly my paramotor out of that field in front of your garage! Maybe you could help me rebuild the Bing 84 carbs on it! Lol
Have you ever though about putting suspension on your seat? Like on a big truck or tractor. I dont know how safe it would be but im sure its less work and money then full suspension.

i have a kawasaki 125cc would you recommend that emzoil oil brand for it. ive been using royal purple
Absolutely. I’m the AMSOIL dealer that supports Greg’s channel. Go to. Clovislubricants.shop AMSOIL.com receive up to 25% off. If you have questions, you will find my phone number
cvt is biger then the 40 series which one is it? thanks
That’s what I use is Amsoil
What kinda dip u got in lol 😂 looks like u got one in
A Bridgeport. Get a lathe and build anything in the world close tolerance if yer good. Sell them. I am your size. Too old though. Found out 15 years ago on a used 500 Honda dirt bike. Retired and ought to build them
I would buy one of these frames if they’re ever available.
I have a question, with all the mods you do the the duromax 440, how much torque do you think that adds 🤔,
How’s the gearing? Lil tall? Just right? Or
love seeing u rippin shiznitt up redbeard u keepin the DREAM ALive 100% ... ShoooT i put amsoil on my tooth when it hurts works wonders lol
id love to have one of thos
Awesome! Yeah I want one! Do you have 7 year financing? LOL
Naaaaassstyyyyy lol I wanna build a go kart now lol
Your “long lasting tire” link in these videos is a dead link FYI. Would like to know what tires those are
Move your idler gear to the bottom side.
So all the torque of the engine would be on it? Look at the rotation of the sprockets.....
Mix of not souly first person camera would be sick
ok I want that Kart
How can I get ahold of Brad Hill?
bhill1271@yahoo.com
weres this place in ky
Are you gonna produce a chassis for sale??
Why don’t ya try pushrod suspension? It’ll make it compact and extra unique points.
If it’s that stiff with you on it maybe drop a pound of air out of the tires or half a pound I’d hate to see how it treats lonny 😂he weights what 90 pounds wet 😂😂
How do I remove rev limiter on my 212
Murray KY I'll be there hell yes still 6 hrs away but I'll be there man I can't wait be my first riding event meet I'm Soo excited lol imma bring my no suspension I want back problems noones ever said lol can't wait
yeah no suspension (basically a dingo) are a RuFFF ride.. but they RIP!!!
2 stroke 250 motor swap on this cart :)
can i buy this kart from u
Please offer these chassis for sale. I will buy 1 (or 2) of them
