I bought this kart as a project for me and my daughter. I bought it at a yard sale. It had a 5 hp BS engine and some kind of funny gear system. The sprocket goes from the engine to a small upper axle then over to the drive wheel. I have looked online trying to find a match and have not had any luck. I have started taking it apart, and have bought a new engine. The plan it to clean it, paint it, new seat, new tires and let my daughter have fun. Any thoughts or ideas would be great. Thanks.

Sorry I asked for pics in your welcome post- could be a Streaker.How old is your daughter? Is it one wheel drive?Your funny gear system is a typical jackshaft reduction drive.

Thanks for the reply. My daughter is 4 and i am planning on using gearing and an engine governor to keep it slow for now. She is doing great with the power-wheels jeep she has now. I assure you safety is first. Thanks for the jackshaft reduction. This is all new to me. I have been restoring a jeep and I wanted to have a project that would be less expensive.

Is there anyway to find a year and model so buying parts would be easier? From what I have found so far, it seems like parts are general and you buy based on bolt pattern, axle diameter, horsepower ect...

And the axle is live? Both wheel pull.

that kind of looks like a yerf-dog 3202 model.

I thought so too but after looking at the one in my bone yard it's not the same frame.
A small thing I noticed was the pedals are typical early Manco or Northern tool, the frame configuration, steering wheel and wheels looks like a Streaker, roll cage and seat looks like a Yerfdog.
Your kart isn't really going to need specific parts that I can see.Universal stuff will work just fine.

Ok thanks for the information. I am sure I will have more questions as I go.
