Is this really worth it? http://appleton.craigslist.org/rvs/3580752722.html
Or my real question is could I make money on it after having some fun wih it?

That's about as cheap as it gets for any running kart. I wouldn't low ball the guy down to $500. If you have $700 buy it, if not, don't.

Do you have any special rituals when the helmet is concerned like many have? - "I wipe it so that I can see better." - Kimi

cheap for sure, running maybe for now, but who knows how long.. and that is when you don't get too much back, cuz if that motor blows up and you add tires, bearing, fluids, axle hubs down the road you never will see it.

can't beat the price, have fun.

Karts are not investments, especially this one...

Buy it, run the snot out of it, and off-load it for whatever you can get out of it when you're done.

don't do it, spend a little more and get something that will be competitive. That thing looks like a money pit.

Used karts are cheap. Running and repairing them isn't. IMO your always better off to pay a little more up front for something good because in the end it will be cheaper and you'll have better equiptment. On the other hand if you just want to try it out and see if you like it and if you feel it will keep running for a while then why not? You'd be getting a running shifter for the cost of 3 sets of tires.
