Coleman Powersports Off Road Go Kart, Gas Powered, 196cc/6.5hp(KT196-BL), Large, Blue

We have had this Go Kart for about a year, Just to clear a few things up nothing has had to be replaced, Only thing I’ve done to it is proper maintenance on oil and filling it up with diesel 😂 joking obviously gas. This go kart has BALLS, There is a throttle screw that you can adjust I just yoinked it out so it can go it’s fullest speed/rpm, There is another way to make it faster to which I DO NOT recommend basically taking out the governor which I have not done and don’t plan to. My brother is 130 pounds and he was ripping in the snow, I am 6’2 250 pounds and I even rip in the snow! Not recommended but we attached a rope and attached a plastic sled to the back and it pulled me and my brother! The max weight capacity is 400 it says. Me and my brother are close to that and it handled just fine in SNOW, Also I am really impressed on how good it is on ice it actually has pretty good grip you know if you had some ice in your backyard you shouldn’t have to worry to much. Overall very impressed also for delivery I was lucky, The delivery guys where able to bring the big box all the way back to my shed (this is when it was warm out and no snow) I heard many complain about them dropping it off right in the front but I guess it depends on what type of delivery guys you get. I have had one problem in the past that is now fixed, The Torque Converter has come apart on me somehow randomly one day it went into pieces but I was able to find all the parts off the ground and reassemble it with nothing broken. JUST A TIP: Make sure you occasionally check to make sure all your bolts and stuff are tight (especially when you first assemble it) I believe that is what caused my torque converter to come loose. One more thing careful leaving it running the go kart started moving slowly on its own by its self occasionally I’m going to look into that could just be the throttle getting stuck cause of cold weather nothing major though. Hope this review helped but yes it is pretty overpriced but I still bought it. One more thing if you read this far, We have flipped the go kart 😂 kids being kids you know. We had helmets on but where not buckled and the roll cage held up to me and my brother. There was no damage and no injuries so when the go kart comes in make sure you install the roll cage correctly and you will be safer than ever!

Save your money and your time. We have had nothing but problems from day one.First, it somehow came still wet. The blue paint came off on my hands upon delivery…guess they thinned it too much.Clanking and lurching from day one. Throttle stuck a couple times. … motor killed when I stomped brake…THEN the pull start went out completely and I turned it in on warranty. Very slow process. Took forever for authorization and again for the payment to the repair shop. November-April. We finally got it back yesterday, the chain popped right off…. And now I see the cracked frame that is causing the sprocket to tip sideways, dropping the chain. Back to pursuing warranty again. Sigh. Seriously don’t put yourself through this.

The media could not be loaded. I shopped around a lot before buying this thing and I'm glad I did.First of all... you don't need to be a mechanic to assemble/maintenance/ operate one of these but you definitely need to be handy and have a basic knowledge of vehicles.Secondly you'll need a few things like engine oil, Grease and Grease gun, Ethanol Free gas, tire slime and loctite.I've told my kids to basically drive this thing until it breaks. And they have. I've had to replace the tires (mainly before I figured I could patch and throw slime in them), the crankshaft sprocket and the gear chain.I recommend when putting it together to seal every bolt with loctite because the entire frame vibrates when operated. There's also one Grease spot on the back you'll need to promptly lubricate. You can also lubricate the chain with an oil/protectant as well.Cheap parts like the chain and sprocket are the Achilles heel to this cart... but if you feed it Ethanol Free gas and keep her maintenanced you'll enjoy it for years to come.

The go-kart is shipped in a steel angle iron crate. Assembly is fast and easy. The hardest part is disassembling the crate. (Power driver is a must, in my opinion, with a 10 mm socket.) It comes with a tool kit of everything you'll need to put it together and maintain it. Assembly takes about 2 hours, including all the tube padding. I have a problem with the parking brake not working, but I'm pretty sure it's just an adjustment to the spring mechanism, I have to push the locking pin in to get it to work. Assembly is only the rear wheels and the cage, basicly, and all the padding.Only basic skills needed to assembly. Added only about 2 oz. of oil and it was full. (oil cap and dipstick are very hard to get to, on the rear of the motor, behind the seat back.) Started on first pull.My 10 year old granddaughter simply loves it. So far it seams to be a safe, well made kart. ( Don't forget helmets)

First off it arrived a day late after waiting a few weeks ... not that big of a deal . But I unbox it and pull everything out to set it up and there is ABSOLUTELY NO HARDWARE to be found in it , not a bolt , washer nor nut to be found pretty disappointed in that so I went to my local hardware store and picked up what I needed hot home and put it together .... fueled it up and pulled it .... it starts but will not stay running something is rattling in under the carb on the throttle so now I must pull it apart ..... will update review after I finally get it running !.? Update.... have gotten it running like a champ kids love it .... still getting 3 starts because I had to spend $40+ in hardware to get it together ....
