100cc TKM (Direct Drive) kart now £150
colt_mivec - 17/5/08 at 10:19 PM



I have my 100cc TKM (Direct Drive) kart for sale due to lack of use

Fitted new Plug and Throttle cable today for a lap of the full industrial estate.

The frame is stone chipped and the plastics are a bit dull but ive only ever used it for car parks/Ind. Estates and its never been raced.

Its good for 70mph but believe me you need some bottle for that when your a**e is 25mm from the floor

Offers around £275

I used to race TKM until 3 months ago when I decided to sell it to build the Locost. I have had 4 karts in total over the years I was racing and found the best way to sell them if you have the time is to take them to peices and sell them as parts on Ebay as the chassis is basically worthless but things like a set of bodywork is worth something to someone but they won't buy a complete kart for the bodywork. If you take the whole thing to peices and sell parts you will get better money or put it on www.karting.co.uk it free to advertise on there. Was great fun though and I do miss it all though don't miss the bills to repair it after taking a closer look at the local scenerey!!

Its definately an experience. We had a new road on a housing estate before they opened it and it went round circles there quicker than anything

Am i right in thinking a kart holds the lap record at Cadwell


eccsmk - 18/5/08 at 02:32 PM

i think the radicals do
when we took the 125 rotax to cadwell we were clocked at 125 mph but the mountain was a real PITA as we were geared fo top speed


colt_mivec - 18/5/08 at 02:35 PM

I was sure the kart held it for a lot of years but i might be wrong.

Someone must want some fun,Ive enjoyed it but would rather be out on my supermoto as the weathers to nice
