Kart For Sale

I have for sale a Honda Junior Kart (Not a Cadet). These karts use the Honda Gx160 4-stroke engine. I believe children aged between eleven to sixteen are eligible for the class but racing aside they are great karts for teenage children.


I purchased this one on a whim, I knew it had been well looked after and had only been a plaything for the child of a Porsche race team owner, in his ownership it was very well looked after and never had much use, his son wasn’t interested in racing so he decided to sell. I had no intension of racing either but mistakenly thought it would keep me entertained whilst also being good for my son when he gets a little older. In practice it is a little small for me and would be too big for him for a couple of years.


So now I’m selling and buying a pro-kart, if my son shows any interest I’ll get him a Cadet when he is ready. This kart will suit children aged from about 7 or 8 to an adult up to about 5’8” or 10” I’m just shy of 6’and weigh 90kg I can drive it but it’s all just a little tight.


It is a good clean kart, starts and runs well, as I said before it has been well looked after. I don’t know its age but usage must have always been light, it is fitted with good quality seat, steering wheel and a hydraulic break it also has a centre tank fitted. Tyres are good and it recently had the oil and spark-plug changed. I’ve just ordered a new clutch because I noticed it was on it's way out last time I used it, I will be fitting this prior to sale.

The Kart is stored at my place of work in Nottingham, viewing is no problem, and even a trial is OK either in my work carpark or else the local kart track (about 10 miles and £20 to use it there) It comes with a limited amount of spare including sprockets, heel cups, peddal extensions and a cover and is fitted with good tyres. Once the clutch comes and is fitted I will be listing this on ebay but thought I would offer it through here first.


Looking for about £400
