Check the description for more Information.
The cover photo is a VF-1 builder that mounted an R1 Engine and the thing is a MONSTER, thank you Allen for sharing your build with us; and thank you to all of the builders sharing their builds and knowledge. A lot of frames going together and I have a natural tendency to look for trends and ways to improve processes. This video is to make assembling your VF-1 or any of the VF's easier and more enjoyable. The Facebook Group for plan holders only is really bringing good ideas and techniques to light. All of the builds are so awesome and this adventure is crazy cool, a huge thank you to everyone. I love that Dave and I could set aside some time to get THREE frames together all just to give away. This is very exciting. See you on the next one.

Thanks for doing what you do sir . I watched endless videos you posted while spending 2 years building mine ( I have a video of mine on my channel) . Just go for it people, yes your going to screw up . But learning is living…..

@GuyonaMoose Месяц назад

Sir this kart looks incredible. I've been searching for a kart project for myself and my kids. This beast is absolutely perfect for me and my family. I will be purchasing the plans once I'm back home in a few weeks. You are doing God's work here with this project. It's absolutely incredible and your attention to detail is impeccable. Love your work. I'm curious how many fellow Canadians have joined this project.

@KJRaycing 24 дня назад

This is one of the best compliments, thank you so much sir. I hope you enjoy the process of building and I hope your crosskart comes out amazing. Thank you.

Yeah, I know that’s like I may get an hour or two in the garage a week I fix cars for a living six days a week. I have your plans when you first put them on the Internet and I still haven’t had a chance to build it and you’re right, once you get started, you don’t wanna stop, but that initial start is the hardest!

@brettbrandon1731 Месяц назад

Thank you for all the hard work and for sharing your knowledge. You have definitely inspired to me to try building one myself. I recently bought the extra parts list and will be purchasing the plans for the VF-1 soon. I have a small shop where I work on atv's and sxs's and started building mini bikes, now I'm inspired to build something bigger. Thank you again!

My wife bought a set of plan’s from you oh about a year ago. She still hasn’t figured out how to print them. I’m even more computer illiterate, so I’m yet to strike an arc let alone to get any material. This maybe right up my alley. I think this an awesome thing on your part. I hope and pray that you make some friends happy. Thank you for your service. I’m ret USN enlisted. Loved almost every minute of it. Thanks again!

@blythdunlap8408 5 месяцев назад

Excellent video! I found out about you by way of the cars and cameras channel. I sub'd your channel. I've been wanting something like this for a long time. I guess I need to learn how to weld properly and learn how to bend pipe... The rest of it I can do... When budget allows... I suppose.... thanks to you.. I'll be shopping for a bender. I have full intentions of buying a set of plans and getting after it... within the next year... hopefully. Like I said.. great video! Keep up with the hard work and good luck to you!

@KJRaycing 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much. The learning curve for this stuff is not very steep at all. I always say the hardest part is to start 👍. I wish you the best.

Have you thought about making a pedal assembly kinda like you did with the rear end have the pieces cut out by that company and just weld them together

Thank you for your service,(I’m ret USN EN1 ) hurt my back but trying to have some fun. I love building things.

@oliverrosenkrantz2670 3 месяца назад

Hey bud so in love with these. And I am an apprentice fabricator and thinking of doing one of these. I am from Europe and use the metric system. Do you know if I will have any problems using metric tubing as that will have different dimensions than imperial. Could I just use the metric tubing diameter that comes closest to the ones you use and then follow your plans? Or would I need to calibrate the measurements somehow?

I want to make an electric version of this mated to a manual transmission. Any tips or suggestions?

@brianknowles7701 4 месяца назад

Love the enthusiasm! I sooo desperately want one of these.. I dont know how to weld, don't have a welder yet. I DID just get a 30x50 shop built so I can learn to weld and learn to build one of these. I would LOVE to get plans and a bender... I think for my first attempt though, I may want a kit... And a jig... do you sell the jig kits or are they in the plans too? I'm in Arkansas but willing to drive to pick anything up to save on shipping... Anyway, I'm rambling... Love the channel. LOVE the builds! Gonna share this ALL over Facebook for sure!

@KJRaycing 4 месяца назад

Thank you! That is the whole idea and you are definitely in the right track. The jig is definitely in the plans and is pretty simple to build. Everyone who has started a frame has finished one so you definitely should be excited. And check out this video I made for the guys wanting to get started… ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Kgd1CJHmT6g.htmlsi=1DvE513HgSxGdex9

@rexg76 6 месяцев назад

The hardest part for mine will be add hand controls, but I think I can do it. But has anyone tried fitting a gold wing engine in one?

@bonovoxel7527 6 месяцев назад

Can I ask what are the standing features why you chose a GW engine, apart of the reverse? (Or is bc it's an engine you already have spare?) Askin seriously, I want to have the reverse on mine but thought I only ned the gearbox. What am I ignoring about the gw engine?

@bonovoxel7527 6 месяцев назад

Shift controls by hand afaik are the same system than a lever, at least if you use a servo actuator on the engine side (auto clutch, auto sync, auto shift, in milliseconds. Cool.)

@rexg76 5 месяцев назад

sorry for the late response , but gw motors make a bunch of torque and because it has reverse

What stile and tube siz do you iuz

@Demasys 2 месяца назад

I have a question if you don't mind. Is your welder 110 or 220 and are you welding at that? From the video it looks to be a 110 cord going to the welder. I'm thinking about tacking the main frame with a 110 welder and having a professional do the full weld. The other small stuff I can weld myself. The main frame is essential, I would like strong clean welds. i'm going big motor and street legal. I bought the laser cnc bend kit, super excited to be part of the KJ Racking Team.

@KJRaycing 2 месяца назад

It is 110, frame tubing for small buggies has a wall thin enough to make 110 mig welding very easy.

I want start this in ontario Canada can you help me

@FAA-DPE 2 месяца назад

From an experienced metal worker to someone who's never measured, cut, bent, welded, a cage before, and are considering this. You have a semi truck load of in your face reality check coming your way 😂 Im not saying dont do it. After ali, we only really learn through mistakes. Just prepare and budget for a lot of wasted pipe. My advice? Find a good mentor or go to work as a helper in a fabrication shop or shipyard, etc. Trust me, you will learn.

@KJRaycing 2 месяца назад

From just a dude in a garage to an experienced metal worker… it is tube, not pipe. Pipe is for plumbing. Oh and also everything else you typed is wrong as well, plenty of first time fabricators are getting these frames together just fine. Go $h!t in someone else’s lawn.

Can we buy digital currency (USDT)from you?

@bonovoxel7527 6 месяцев назад

"Can we pay you in USDT?" I think was the question you meant. I think he should consider it. There are countries where access to dollar is inhibited, even access to cash is, not to mention places where even buying stuff from abroad is let's say, regulated. If you need to buy USDT as written, you better use an exchange.
