  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 พ.ค. 2024
  • The 900cc Ducati go kart named the "Ducarti" returns! We ruined the motorcycle powered go kart's clutch racing in the sand a few years ago, and the 80hp go kart has been sitting ever since. In today's episode, we revive the Ducati go kart and prepare it for a head to head challenge up against our 670cc 2 stroke snowmobile powered go kart!

    The cop pulling up behind Ike, the way Charles went straight to the ground to get a look at the oil plug, the excitement and anticipation on John's face and the master Russell's guidance makes this one of the most quintessential Cars and Cameras episodes in your history. Thanks for the ride!

Beautiful to see Ike showing of his mechanical mastery on what can be a bunch of tricky machines; I used the 5mm Allen trick plenty of times then slowly you get the feel.. Still the hammering of a gasket has blown me away, general engineering mastery at its most elegant.

    The 670 may have more top end horsepower at the crank but the Ducati engine likely puts it to the ground better than the CVT. Plus it also makes torque, something that 2 stroke never did and never will. "These go to 11..." was Spinaltap not Tool. Write the date on the oil filter with a Sharpie, makes it easy to tell when you last changed the oil. Russell should've told you, you've gotta let a Ducati fully warm up before you try to move. The older ones especially are temperamental as hell. Where Japanese bikes were street bikes dressed as race bikes, Ducatis were race bikes slightly detuned for the street and they really don't like to go anywhere until they are warmed up.

    Gotta clean the power valves on the 670! That’s why it sounds like it’s hitting a rev limit in the drag video! That is what stuck power valves sound like! 100% would take the ducarti over the 670 any day of the week!.. the torque is probably double the 670 and much more usable. A 450 4 stroke off of a bike would be sweet! Newer ones are fuel injected! Perfect for a turbo! I think these high power crazy builds are what will grow your channel! I’d like to see what you guys could do with a 450 motor in a proper chassis.
