Put some kind of muffler on it. Twostrokes benefit from the backpressure it creates. Also, try not to engine brake too much. The piston and cylinder only get lubrication on power strokes. When you engine brake the carb only feeds the engine with enough gas/oil to idle.
as a metal fabricator / welder by trade and avid kart enthusiast ... I would like to compliment you on that chassis design , looks real GOOD . I'm using a kawasaki 250 ninja motor on mine
Joe Jones , what 250 did you use ? , what "issues" did you have ? have not had mine out for real testing yet . shop has been REAL busy & lack a good place to test-n-tune .
@@joejones2847 How in the world did you complicate things as bad as you did on something that's so easy to work on with merely the basics of understanding?
Well, that looks every bit as terrifying as I expected it to be. You have built one of the most bad ass street karts off a garage floor I've ever seen. Going to need to find some place big for real testing.
I'm telling ya for your age your work is quality. I'm a former 20 plus year industrial welder/industrial mechanic. I got sick and had to stop. So it's a lot coming from me.
A few comments, 1. First of all, your video style is one of the best I have seen, I really like the show external view followed up by helmet cam. 👍 2. The NEIGHBORS WILL NOT UNDERSTAND 😂. You are experiencing what is called “fabricators delusion”. We have all been there, yours is a text book case... “since I have spent months on this, it’s ok to test without a muffler”. It is normally treated by “home health care”. Showing up in police cars 😂😂 3. Check your external shift linkage for binding, disconnect external linkage and try shifting gears manually. 4. Shifting problem may be divine intervention, there may be a guardian angel keeping it from shifting to higher gears. 😇😇. Get it out on a short dirt track, 30mph is pretty fast when you are completely sideways throwing a rooster tail. 5. Keep up the good work, I will be following for updates. If you add music to the videos, I will delete you and come and fix the shifter myself 😡😡😂😂😂. Any engine is all the music I need! Be blessed, keep up the great work!
You're insane dude. A lot of people your age dont know how to do half the stuff you do on a regular basis. I loved watching you create this beast and I cant wait for more amazing videos. Keep up the hard work.
Hell yeah!! She is alive an ripping!! Really good job young man. A little repairs here n there n she will be evil as hell!! Love when you said my neighbors are probably mad, then BRAAAAAAAPPPPP!!!
First off, nive work!!! I subscribed as soon as I saw you welding that nice frame several weeks ago. For the leaking float bowl, the carb might be overflowing a little. The fuel tank might be a little high, causing too much fuel pressure, but there are other things you can check first. Remove the float and give it a shake & listen. Make sure it does not have liquid inside it. If you hear anything inside, replace it. Check the float inlet needle, it should have a rubber cone shaped tip. Make sure there is not a circular "ring" worn into the rubber. If so, replace the inlet needle. Finally, you can clean & polish the brass inlet "seat" by using some q-tips and some mother's aluminum polish. I chuck q-tips into a drill and spin-polish the seats. Make sure the brass seat is clean, with no corrosion or pitting. You can make it look like gold but dont over do it, lol. Finally you can check and adjust your float height, may need to lower your float by bending the tab...this effectively causes the fuel level to be a little lower in the bowl. Doing all this will help keep your carb from overflowing. Good luck !
Well done from an old guy that wanted to build one back in 1978 with a yz250 that I bent the frame on ! You got me thinking and maybe I’ll build one for the grand kids with a bit less hp ? Keep it going!
Looks good. Mine has a Suzuki 185. I used 8 in. Utility tires on front and atv tires on back. Used a freon canister for fuel. Not built for track but it is a lot of fun.
Get either some black or braided hoses for the cooling, flip the radiators around and run the crossover hoses up and around the roll bar loop. Then run the other 2 hoses down the roll bars, this should clean up the look quite a bit! Mount the ignition box to the back of the seat. Maybe get a fuel tank that fits under the steering column but then you would need some type of fuel pump. Bend the input of a dirt bike muffler and run it sideways. If you want to get crazy, build some linkage off of the kick starter and run it up front so you can kick it while seated.
You need to put a muffler on that. You'll find you'll gain extra power just putting a muffler on it. Also the carby needs tuning. Carby leaking means gaskets need replacing or float inlet pin is stuck.
One thing you're going to have to do does Birdcage bearings in the rear you're going to have to get a needle greasing tip that you put on grease gun in grease those bearings or else they will seized up. Those are the same style bearings that were on a cage Kart that I built. Other than that good build bud
if you really can't go past second gear you probably screwed something up putting the engine back together :d... Btw, Sounds awesome! (I just love 2 strokes haha). And please, Let the piston and cylinder get run in first before you go crazy haha! Nice job tho!
A two stroke doesn’t really have a break in period. It’s not like a sport bike they’re high revving is the only way to ride one. Since the oil is in the gas if it’s running it’s oiling
Nice job young man. One of my favorite go kart vids. Years ago I built a crazy kart from a snowmobile engine I got given to me. It came mostly disassembled. I put it together and it ran so I built a frame, added suspension, and I kept the stock clutches/ belt drive. Your karts acceleration reminds me of that machine. It ran a 11.7 second 1/4 mile at 120 mph. Motor was a built 570 Yamaha.
Hell ya bro, this video got me thinking about putting a 2 stroke on my gas powered grandpa chair. Maybe I should make some videos of it. Anyways good work bro, get that gear issue worked out, can't wait.
Last year it was the 50 mph cart. This year its the 50hp cart!!! Great videos and builds!
haha thank you thats true!!

plep every stroke on a 2t is a power stroke....
@@yeetskeetledeet8184the downstroke is the power stroke. It doesn't produce any power on the upstroke, does it?
plep sarcasm pal, was making a joke implying that 2t’s are always making power 😂
@@yeetskeetledeet8184 Kinda hard to convey over text but, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dude that’s awesome great job on the build 👍
Thanks alot brother! Ill have to let you rip it!
Vasily Custom Builds we should do a race, my YZ85 shifter VS your shifter.
@@ratherBweldingChris yes, race
That would be sick! I think I will be able to finish it mid april
Cant wait to see that! My two favorite channels doing a collab.
5:59 Lets get this thing inside and ill talk some news a- brapbrabrabraBRAAAAAAAP!
Jose ricotaconachoquesadillamandillajones
🤣😂
lol
Funny!
I clicked as soon as I got the notification. Good work that thing looks like it's fun af. I cant wait to start working on mine.
Get a lectron carb for it!!😉it works so much better than a stock carb and you don’t have to jet it
I subscribed like two months ago just for this vid. Keep up the good work.
Same man
Same, too! :-)
Same

you deserve way more subs this quality is too high to match that sub count should equal over 500k
Liked before watching the video.
Great job bro!!!!
One of the best karts I’ve seen on TH-cam that’s crazy
Can't wait to see it with all the panels you made and the wing, Love it love it love it...
I'm telling ya for your age your work is quality. I'm a former 20 plus year industrial welder/industrial mechanic. I got sick and had to stop. So it's a lot coming from me.

haha that was funny thank you sir!
i think you are the type of guy that enjoy more the prosses of building it , than to actually ride it hehe :) nice work
This is the ultimate garage build you win
I love how big it is. And I wish people would make them like this.
2 STROKE POWER
I think the radiator hose system look fuqin sick!!
foreeal? haha
yes totally!! dont know why you complain dude...
He should bring it to the doctor then
Vasily Custom Builds you know I mentioned the radiator hoses above but you could do them with some hard line copper or stainless would look badass
Sebastian Lootus because he’s a perfectionist and the lines aren’t straight or symmetrical so it looks half ass to him.
Love it Vasily..great build..couldn't have came out any better!
Lol ‘bout time! Things awesome
You have cooler ideas that you execute better than most similar channels with even more people and experience and a more equipped shop. Good work.
Nick DiFilippo he should have a future in fab and design.
The beast is out of it’s cage ‼️😱🔥🔥
🤟🏼🤟🏼
I'm sure your neighbors love you and your beautiful yard! =)
You're insane dude. A lot of people your age dont know how to do half the stuff you do on a regular basis. I loved watching you create this beast and I cant wait for more amazing videos. Keep up the hard work.
If you go on pc website, they have jetting specs listed for their pipes. Saves a lot of time.
Great build that thing is awesome I have a new build planned but not this cool or fast keep up the great work
Man this thing is awesome!! Best build yet, and your shifting setup appears to work flawlessly aside from the blocked gears. Keep up the awesome work
Excellent job youngster. Keep up the good work, and that attitude you have... will open doors where there were none.
This is a great build. Good way to use an old kx250 engine 👍
Hell yeah!! She is alive an ripping!! Really good job young man. A little repairs here n there n she will be evil as hell!!
Love when you said my neighbors are probably mad, then BRAAAAAAAPPPPP!!!
Super pumped that you got it running that thing rips.
It’s alive!!! Can’t wait to see you open it up. Great work.
That powerband kick hard 😂😂 good job

ok this is very helpful thank you!
Awesome Job Man!!! You are Going Places Bud, this inspires me to try to make one for my kid!! Thank you for the video.

Keep it going!
If u we’re doing it for kids you could take a 4 stroke motor off a wrecked streetbike cuz it’d be able to take a lot more beating on and last longer
Fue un honor haber estado presente desde que empezó el proyecto

I'm super impressed. TH-cam recommended this video and didn't disappoint. I plan on watching what led you here
That's awesome! I hope it recommends more of my videos out to people I really try hard to make good videos!
i bet your neighbors love you! great job.
Yeeeey finally!
That kart is cool as hell!! Keep on building!!
Sweeeeeeeet! Excellent result and excellent videos! Thanks Vasily!

Yeah, it's kind of counterintuitive the way 2 cycles like a bit of back pressure.
Pipe has plenty backpressure.....silencer is optional but need to tune for it if not using it. Jetting is critical
Nice..Been waiting for this for a while!
Great job Vas!!! Been watching all along - really great series, solid build, machine looks great!! Keep up the great work!
Great job Vasily!
Have fun with it!
All that hard work paid off well done lad look forward to the next video well done
CONGRATULATIONS from france !!!!!! realy good job !!!! it s work so good !!!!!!!
Wwwwwaaaawww that run seems awesome. Sound of 2stroke . . . loveit
Amazing work Vasily! It payed off!
Your videos are super super awesome. By far my favorite channel
Very cool, a little bit of final sorting & fine tuning, & Bob's ya Aunty!! Good job.

All your hard work is paying off today! You stuck at it , man . Well done. Looks like she handles sharp.
Holy crap dude! That's insane!! Bit of fine tuning and you're golden! Well done👍👍👍👍👍
That was well worth the wait, awesome 😎😎😎😎
That thing is INSANE!! Love the build man
That go kart is awesome!
It looks like it is crazy fast but that's how we boys like it good luck little bro.
thank you sir!
That go kart is sick! Well done
good job,lad,keep it up,looks good,from bolton,uk.....
Yes
Whoa! This shifter cart is a beast. Looking forward to seeing you fine tune it to the max!
That thing is seriously sick wow it's cool
Finally!!! Been waiting everyday for this vid!
Finally bud👍👍

Keep killing those builds man!

@@thatmotoguy7505 lmao. He's crazy. You cant just put a new piston and rings in and gas it. Or new ones will be going in in 5 hours. Lol
Haha I ran it through a heat cycle
@@VasilyBuilds not you. Lol the other comment. Lmao. Sweet build tho

How do u make a axle?? And could u give me some tips mines only gonna have a 125 4stroke instead of a 250 2stroke
This thing is great so glad it’s finally done! 👍🏼😁
Hard work starting to pay off, finally. Congrats dude!!
About to start my first 2 stroke kart build can’t wait
Keep up the good work! Proud of you bro!
Next you should do a Banshee or snowmobile motor on a OFF road build!!!!
I have a banshee love them 2 strokes
that would b sick
This kid going to go a long way ..
Great job! Awesome build. Can’t wait to see more driving time!
outstanding build. engine sounds strong. can't wait until next vid to see the little bugs get worked out.
That great , it looks like its handling really good
Been watching since you got the bike! So awesome!!!!
Great job guy, I watch you from Brazil 👏🏻👏🏻
Hell ya bro, this video got me thinking about putting a 2 stroke on my gas powered grandpa chair. Maybe I should make some videos of it. Anyways good work bro, get that gear issue worked out, can't wait.
Would love that and your gramps
What a mean power bandd! Awesome video man. I've always wanted one of these.
Hey Man just saw your channel for the first time and this build is sick, you did a great job with it, Keep it up!
That's one sick cart.
I watched this since day 1 nice bro good work..
things too sick!!!!! good work!
Oh yeah im impressed
Awesome build cant wait to see the top speed on this kart
Very nicely done. You are doing awesome.
Sweet video man looking good😋
Man u did a hell of a good job keep it up. You are a very smart young man with a lot of talent
Thank you
It`s finally done! I`m looking forward to a full speed video! :-D
You have a bright future young man stay 💪
