HOW TO: Fit a Jecko Seat to Your Go Kart - POWER REPUBLIC 

I simply love these videos from POWER REPUBLIC! The "hobby" approach from a professional is appreciated! With these VID's anyone can do some DIY on their karts. I have installed the same JECKO into my DD2 and my son's new seat into his MICRO already. (note: in my Ricciardo DD2 the seat will not be in the middle) Keep on rocking! Greetings from Hungary!

They are the best seat ever. I had mine for 4 months now. I highly recommend these seats.

Another great video mate... Love your work and easy to follow tutorials !

Excellent video. The editing and content keep on getting better and better

SO SO SO HELPFUL THANK YOU !!! LIKED AND SUBED !!!

Great video and perfect timing!!! Mounting our new Iamf H7 seats tomorrow (went Italian but the seat shape is going to be interesting since it's the same as Jecko). Can't wait for the rider feedback when we go back out driving this weekend!!! Thanks once again for providing these great videos and keep up the good work!!! /Robert.

Great Video now how about weights best spots to put weight on the kart and how to affix.

This video helps a lot because i just brought a Go kart with a s100 engine The push start and changing it over to a 125cc But didn't realise the seat frame was for a junior And I am just a little bit to big for It so Without this video I would have Wested money Because I didn't know that we can bend the bars out a bit without breaking it

Good video, but the first video was much better for a first timer like me, and it helped me a lot, cause it showes more how to set the distance on each side to get the right angle on the seat 👍

As always, great video! ;) Maybe you should make video about differences between various models of jecko seats? It would be nice to watch them and it would be very helpful!

Great vid. again!!! Can you explain some more about front and back width maximum for kz drivers? Dry track race with stabis or not? I changed some things with my chassis but still have bad grip, going in curve and going out.

Very helpful as always, my son is in a Aluminos 950 chassis and he’s 150cm tall and is a top runner in Nz, by pushing the seat to the rear help with rotation into corners , and if I have time should I move the seat further back if it’s raining to help with under steer ? Cheers guys 🤜

I fitted my seat about a centimeter below the frame, and thinking of plating it with steel to prevent damage, alonge with skid protectors that are also fitted to my chassies. The part im not happy with is the 2 bolts also hang down that far and point forwards. Its sat on rubber mounts below the seat which raised it an inch, and that still leaves alot hanging out the bottom. I think i need to cut those bolts...

Wow very comprehensive as always thank you! Just trying to fit my jecko D5 in a new CRG road rebel. The seat barely fits so I guess I cannot avoid opening up the sides with a hammer? Any detrimental effects on the chassis if you open up the sides?

A jecko seat on OTK can be match ? How can I place it for the optimal work ?

How have you got on with this seat? I've just picked one up for my 2020 compkart, but am also a bit scared to remove the T11VG..

I am looking at the Jacks seat as I’m older and larger and believe it our not my legs seem to move in the corners. I hope this seat will help?

What about drivers position, comfort, reach. Think I would prefer driver in the seat for feedback.

I've just bought D5, it's fowls very bad with the X30 airb box. Has others had this issue?

Do you have any experience with the kf3 engine? If so what do you think ablut it?

Ciao, Innanzitutto complimenti per i tuoi video. Ti volevo chiedere se per caso sai le misure per l’installazione su telaio crg kz black star. Grazie

Hey again, first time owner, happy to have run my Intrepid Rok 100cc for first time, fantastic! At home, cleaning, admiring, noticed seat points to the right. The difference is 5/8 of an inch difference in gaps from right vs left taken from seat to a fixed point on chassis. I feel disappointed. Is it a big deal? To re drill holes holes so close together is not a good idea in my opinion. Thanks in advance!

how do I get one I been trying to get one for a while

I cannot fit a 38cm seat into a cadet kart my son is too big to fit into a 30cm seat help thanks

geezus this looks more complex than the snipers.

Right Derrick so here's my issues with these jecko seats, the placement is always an issue and then has you turning your brand new expensive seat into swiss cheese. The official seat chart from jecko only references the distance from the back of the seat to the axle perpendicularly... I can see from your video you had that seat at 130mm if you measure it the way jecko say to. A distance of 130mm corresponds to what they say is the "senior" placement but you said in your video you were mounting this seat for a "tall" driver, which means if I'd followed jeckos chart and put this seat there it'd be way to far back for an average height senior driver like me. To me this alone is a huge turn off when considering the jecko.

How do you know where you want to put seat. Do you have driver seated before you fit seat in?

does the flat bottom part of the seat have to be flat? I want to get more incline on mine and that would make the bottom not flat

By the way, a china marker works wonders and no nasty ink on your fingers...

Hi question when to use extra seat trusts

You get better drill holes using a plastic drill instead of a metal drill.

this jecko seat is not very popular in Europe even if it looks pretty
