a friend has a cart frame and we were playin around with the idea of throwin a motor in there and either some shocks and stuff for cheap to make it off-road'ish or leave it as is and lower it for a road'ish type cart. anyone have any suggestions for a cheap, CHEAP motor? just something to beat up pretty much, haha :WayCool:
 
Just by chance if you happen to buy a newer cr80 or yz 85 for the motor i may be interested in the rolling chassis. Or if you find one let me know and maybe we can buy it together.

you can have the motor and all that makes it run - i just need the rolling chassis.

Bryant, I've got a couple kicking around, what are you looking for, like a dirtbike motor? I think I have an older Honda 250 4-stroke kicking around somewhere.
 
we have a yamaha 550 seca 4 cyl bike motor with transmission less cdi
and we have a un identified honda atv motor 4 stroke with tranny.
 
Since I was a teenager I thought about how cool it would be to have a go-cart with a sled motor and CVT. It would have to be funny car length to handle the torque. Imagine a 440 Fan on a go-cart with wide rear tires. It would have great acceleration. Even a Water cooled motor with a donor car radiator in front to distribute the weight a bit.
