Is it true cart motors run at 1 speed? I was just curious how the pipe you pictured with the motor worked? It was very short!

Not 100% sure every cart I've ever ridden which isn't that many and spread over the years was press the gas and go. This motor only had 4th and 5th gear so it was able to shift. I never actually saw it perform but I'm assuming the pipe is the way it is to create a powerband in such a high gear. The carts weigh nothing and have no load besides driver so that's why it can be accomplished.

That thing may have been set up like that for one of those dirt oval track kart's with a wing kind of like a micro sprint. Only needed to shift once on the starts-restarts or maybe they would shift down one up one 2 x a lap. They push start them with utility quads. Hard to say, there are so many different style of race classes around the country.

edit=I have no clue for sure but I picture it being built for something like this.

OK, thats what I was talking about, they only use 4rth and 5th. The OP posted a really nice pic of the motor and chrome shearer pipe before he purchased the motor only.

Yup I'm pretty sure that's the one, he said he had to push start it to get her going. Either way I gotta rip this thing down to put all the gears in. The studs holding the cylinder down are something I've never seen before. The rear 2 studs have an Allen head in the middle and the stud nuts are 12 point. I'm assuming the Allen head is to torque the extremely longer studs for the cylinder into the cases?

Ok that's what I thought but got confused when you said the motor only, cuz I got that cart pipe as well that I need to get rid of now. If anyone is interested? Lol

Search outlaw kart forum or something like that. You might be able to get something for it. They race those in nor cal chico, red bluff, etc. Years ago they raced something like that in stockton as well.

Well got her all torn down and she looks solid. Crazy case work to get this cylinder to mount up. I can tell it wasnt put to gether that long ago bc everything came apart quite easy. Wasnt expecting the 100 metal balls that fell everywhere with that lock up on there lol. As far as the tranny, looks solid. Luckily i have an extra shift drum bc it was cut and welded to only accept 4th and 5th gear and the gears themselfs look cut not to sure if i can use them? Will post pictures tomorrow when im back in the shop.

Assembling the slingshot is usually done on the bench when you can set your cases on a couple blocks sideways. After the motor is installed on the bike you turn the bike on its side to disassemble the clutch. The front handlebar on a step stool works good.
