Your channel is awesome, I've learned so much about karts through these videos, keep it up!
Karting4life your very welcome. Thanks for the positive feedback
I’ve learned so much from this channel. Really great resource for someone who is new to karting
Hi Nick, your very welcome, thanks for the positive vibes .
Prepping the kart for the season and once again your video does the job. Bought a Tony Kart basically because you do so many videos. Theyre all great and more valuable than anything ive seen. I think I need a shirt lol.
Hey Mike, thanks for tuning in and you are very welcome
Thanks for the video , 2 weeks ago I had to adjust my son's pedals.. Now I know how to adjust that heal stop lol
Eastendhunter9 no worries my friend 👍
Bro nice job i love it , so usefull
Hey Gabriel, you are very welcome. Where are you racing?
You could also mention the other brake adjustment on the pedal arm itself. It changes the pedal height (where it hits the bottom of your foot), and I think it also changes the forward/back distance as well. For me, having the brake hit the ball of my foot is very important. Maximizing brake feel is critical and is why drivers often ware very thin soled shoes.
Hi Chip, great advice, thanks for adding it to the comments.
In your own best style, perfect)
😊
Thanks your videos help me a lot i search so long for a video like this thank you best kart instruction videos thumbs upppp
Shoulda known you'd have this on here you Legend....that's the last job to be done before we hit the track...
Could you guys do a how-to rebuild of an Iame x30 engine? That would be awesome.
Riley Friedman I’m working on it. Have you checked our Patreon page? Some of the more in-depth videos how to’s are going to be up on there.
Power Republic ok awesome, I’ll be sure to check it out, thanks!
Do you put the brake pedal the same 50mm away from the rest? I found that the brake is better to be further then the throttle becasue of the shorter travel compared to throttle.
normally as a rule of thumb we put them both the same, 50mm off the heel stops.
Is it possible to flip the gold pedal mounts for shorter driver?
Yes but you have to buy the special adapters from OTK that face backwards
Anyway you can move those pedals even more forward ?
If youre long legged driver, then TK tweakings isnt enuff....

you could try and fit something like this, as far as I know OTK don't make a extension kit for the 401R and 801R karts
I got a qustioen, if you buy the rotax max evo exuast does it also come with the brackets and springs, or do you need to buy those sepretly?
Hi Kapser, you need to order the bracket, socket, springs, rubbers seperaely with the EVO exhaust. Unless you buy it in the engine package, then it all comes included.
@@PowerRepublic Oki doki, thank u so much for the reply :) great channel btw
@@PowerRepublic How many of each do i need to buy then?
Kasper Hansen you'll need 4 springs, 1 bracket, 2 bracket rubbers, 2 anti vibration rubbers and exhaust socket and the exhaust socket ring gasket. Thanks for the positive feedback!
How easy is retro fitting front brakes to a kart? Also, is it possible to have the right foot braking?
yeah they bolt straight on if you buy the same brand on chassis brake system. they used to have a hand operated front brake system for KF a few years ago on the tony kart and that was a nice piece of engineering. right foot is always for accelerator. if you want to brake with the right foot you would have to put a hand throttle controller.
@@PowerRepublic I think I've seen a hand operated system, thanks for confirming it will work. As for the accelerator, I'd wondered about a hand throttle, but figured left foot accelerator would be easier. I also had an idea about using the right foot for rear brakes and left for fronts using a hand throttle. That way the kart would be likely to understeer and have more accurate braking using my right. (I drive a manual car, and dump my clutch and right foot brake in an emergency by instinct. On a kart that translates to me going backwards very rapidly hence my curiosity about the mods)
@@christianbuczko1481 great ideas. the only hand controls I have seen is for disabled people, but they have both throttle and brake hand controls normally for the guys that are paraplegic. pretty easy to rig up a hand throttle control. have you seen how they make the KZ clutch work??
@@PowerRepublic not as yet, I will try to find some vids on that. Thanks for the info btw.
what is the maximum sizebto fit in the kart??? Nice video!
Thanks for the positive vibes! you can fit in a senior kart up to about 6'3" -6'4" but it is a little cramped. Failing that, some companies make a front crash bar pedal extension kit that is a great addition for the tall drivers
Something like this one I searched for in google came up, it's for a CRG but you get the idea.

@listen to my mixtape its fire I not 100% sure on that, I think OTK had a reverse pedal mount kit a few years ago for the shorter drivers.
can u do one for an arrow kart?
sure can my friend
How do I know what's the max throttle positition for the pedal? We moved back the seat, but there is still to much bend on the legs so I have to move the pedals next time 😅
Jesper Ek the maximum will be when you hit the front crash bar. We fit drivers up to about 6’2’ into the standard kart. After that we have to look for a front extension kit.
@@PowerRepublic thank you, but I meant that distance from when the throttle pedal is untouched until the stopper stops it. It looks like the movement is somewhere around 2 cm, but is there some special distance to measure for? Sorry if my english is not the best ;)
@@jesperek6402 i don't normally measure that my friend. This is my normal procedure
- Set the pedal at the most forwards distance for your comfort in the kart with the throttle shut and attach the throttle cable & cable clamp.
- Do up the cable clamp and then wind the stopper screw out of the way so you can get full throttle.
-Then you can wind the stopper screw back to the pedal at full throttle.
Hope that helps
@@PowerRepublic yep I get the picture now 👍 thank you for answer and making videos where you do the mechanics the way we normally do it on the track and not that perfect factory way. Yesterday I was gonna move back my sons seat and thought it's not gonna be thay hard, but I learn the hard way 😅 it ended with buying a new seat cause the other one turned out to be one size to big, but last year we thought it was good.. next time I gonna fight with the pedals 💪cheers
Jesper Ek your very welcome. We try to make everything as easy as it can be.
Nice trick.... better than dropping the pan... Arghh
yeah we have all done that 😂
I think you should invest in a new microphone.
