      Hi John.  As a condition of sale could you demonstrate the motor and run through the gears?  Is there anything it needs to race other than manifold, silencer? Is it completely Stock Honda legal? Can I get some more pics?  Thanks.

      Hi Dan, I have never run the motor as I ran out of funds before I could finish the build.  I assure you that every peice is new however (except trans which is still in great shape).  I took the trans out of an older CR125, ordered new engine parts, and built the engine from scratch.  Gas has never been put into the tank, carb or engine.

      I can get receipts from Shark Shifter and Fastech Racing that show everything that I bought new.

      It shifts through all 6 gears, I just never got a chance to run the motor.  I have pictures of the build and if it would make you feel more comfortable I can tear the motor down to component parts to verify that they are new and unused, except the trans of course.

      If you can text me at 847-477-2131 I can send you pictures of the engine assembly as I documented the entire build as I was going along.

      The kart is in amazing shape with new parts all over.  I really wish I could have finished the build but unfortunately I was not able to do so.  I will be moving out of state and I will not be able to take it with me.  If you are in the area you are more than welcome to stop by to take a look at it.  I also am including a second cart stand and some misc. engine tools for the CR125 that I used for the build, I just forgot to list those in the sale thread.

      thank you you for looking.

      I forgot to mention that yes, the engine has been built as Stock Honda.  All parts are stock and unmodded.  I was planning to race as such.  The only things missing are the exhaust pipe and silencer.  The radiator and all hoses are there, Mychron 4 2t and sensors are there as well.  Brakes are solid as I rebuilt the master and added all new brake fluid.  I can’t think of anything else it needs to run besides the exhaust, oil and gas.

      The kart was sitting in a garage when I picked it up so I cleaned everything I could to make it like new.   The frame has been freshly powder coated.  The only thing I can’t guarantee is how straight the frame is, when I had it coated the shop I took it to just roughly looked it over.  The previous owner told me it was never crashed and after carefully looking over the frame I had no reason to doubt him.  The frame wasn’t flat spotted anywhere or bent or crushed so we assumed it was straight enough as I was only to race it casually.  The powder coating on the frame is almost flawless.
