Weird people out there. Why would you want to use vaseline when you can use bearing grease that under heat will melt and flush down with oil? Do you know the chemical reaction of vaseline when it's mixed with oil and exposed to heat? Noo!!
I've restored a few of these old bikes 4 Honda's and 1 Yamaha. Looking for another one but people are asking stupid prices now. I get it there rare but they're not that rare that people are asking $1500 for 1 with a seized engine and completely clapped out.
Hi, I just found your channel and subscribed because you have really interesting content, and like your fabrication skills. I want to encourage you to do some more videos.
Nice work. You torque converter is installed backwards, yes it is, the springy side is opposing on the symmetric torque converters. Just flip the front around, possibly some shimming but its worth it.
Is there a way to keep them running in the winter, we have no garage. And the throttle gable gets stuck. Cant start maybe cause it needs thinner oil. Idk what else. Any tips would help. We use it for towing the kids sled.
I keep my go karts outside under a tent all winter. I usually use 5w30 in winter and 10w30 in the summer. The throttle cable issue is common. Usually water makes it’s way in the cable and freezes and or corrodes the cable. Replace your throttle cable with a new one. They are all over eBay for 10-15$. Also get yourself a trickle charger to keep your battery fully charged during the cold months. A can of starting spay goes a long way to. Give the air filter a little spritz before initial startup. Good luck and have fun!
Haven’t done the winter race in a beat. Go karts are dwindling. Lost the Nina buggy to a garage fire. Interests shifted to riding 3 wheelers. Still love them buggy’s though. The coolster was finished and needs some tweaking. fb.watch/mOUeD1w96Q/?mibextid=KZAQMH
Hello this video is so helpfull thank you, im just starting a restore project on the same atc, could you let me know where you ordered your seatcover from? Thanks!
I can't unscrew the bottom bolt! in all the videos, people just unscrew with a hex key and that's it! I have it scrolled together with the rod into which it is screwed! I don't understand how it can be disassembled! what is the problem?
I had a pop up disclaimer for the oil. Did it not pop up? Was supposed to say “Use motorcycle oil for wet clutch and don’t screw the oil dipstick in when checking oil level.”
Thank You for the vid , I have been mulling over getting an ATC for winter trail maint . Had thought about a Big Red , but remembering the 250 SX , I like some of the features to the SX . I hope to find one . THANX . !
@@nate32185 So your running a 3.5:1 final ratio and hows the bottom end power like torque wise? I have a 1 seater woods buggy that weighs around 600LBS and am trying to find a good torquey gear ratio for strictly woods/hill climb riding using the same Ninja 250 engine. Does it do good at hill climbs? I am thinking running a 9:1 ratio but want to hear your thoughts on your set up as a reference first.
