X-PRO Rover 50 Go Kart with Pull Start 6" Wheels!(Green)

The media could not be loaded.  Here we go... Came packaged well with no major damage. All parts accounted for. Several major scratches and flake offs on powder coat, but I can live with that. Nylon in the nuts is garbage. Use lock tite on everything. Chain was tighter than a snare drum. Went to adjust to relieve the tension and it is already at the maximum adjustment so I can't loosen it. Rear axle was not straight and had to be adjusted to its maximum adjustment as well just to get it close to tracking straight. Motor did not come drilled and tapped with drain plug for oil. You will 100 percent need a funnel with tube to fill it. About an hour to adjust tow/camber to get it close. Steering is extremely sensitive. You have to max out the bump stop for steering and you'll get about a 20 foot turning radius. Shoulder harness is mounted too low and there is no chest strap that holds it together from sliding down the arms of my kid. A lot of factory bolts were loose and had to be tightened. Spline on axle that meets wheel hub has more slop than I'd like. About 2.5 inches of ground clearance from the bottom of the sprocket to the ground with absolutely no protection. You will have to fabricate a guard for sure unless you have an endless supply of sprockets and chains. Might as well build one around the brake caliper and rotor while you're at it. I would not off road with this until you do that. Flat lawn or driveway would be fine. The main spring for rear is so darn tight it's like riding a rigid chopper on a cobblestone street. Has adjustment, but of course it's maxed out. At this price I expected to have to adjust some stuff, but you really can't because it's all already at max. Motor did turn over within 1 or 2 pulls after pulling for priming. Every subsequent start up has been 1 pull and start. At the end of the day, you need to be ready to put a couple hours of troubleshooting and adjustment into this to get it close to right. I will be fabbing plates and welding on this thing to make it right for sure. Once all of that is done it should be a pretty decent little rig. If you are not handy and used to working on stuff like this youre gonna be pretty frustrated. May sound overly critical but this was my experience and just want you all to know what you're getting into. I got it within 6 days of ordering so kudos on shipping speed. Shipping price seemed high for what it is, but it's bulky and weighed about 160. You'd be hard pressed to find someone to ship it for much less. Kid loves it. Wife is having a heart attack watching him drive. 3 stars is what I give it. Would have been 4 if I could actually adjust anything. Even with all the extra work to get it close to right. The motor not being drilled and tapped for an oil drain plug was equally upsetting. One guys experience and opinion. Take it or leave it.

It’s a very nice looking go kart and was easy to assemble. I had a slight issue that customer service was on great with. They were very prompt with contacting and communicating with me.
