Yes the original disk is there and in fair shape and I think the bracket on the frame may be original but someone has modified it for the scrub brakes. I don’t think it will be to difficult to mount a caliper again. Hopefully I can find some more detailed pictures of some karts that are original.

Thanks Markus that gives something to go on , now I can hopefully find some more information on it. I would like to see some original examples to go by. I am sure the scrub brakes were added and the motor plate doesn’t look to be original . Thanks again.

I found this Go Kart on marketplace today it looked like a Rupp but after getting it home I am not totally sure . Hope you guys can help me figure out what I have. Thanks in advance.

I have a Alsport trike for sale with a JLO Rockwell 2stroke engine that spins over freely has good compression and had good spark the last time I checked it. It also has the heavier steel diff. and larger axles with brakes on each side of the diff. and one on the jackshaft. If interested I am...

I saw that you replied to my post about a rear wheel for my Sportstyl Kamp Kat , sorry I just figured I might have to go with some aftermarket wheels. If you still have a wheel for sale I would be interested. Thanks Jimmy Schnepel

I recently found a Sportstly Kamp Kat , unfortunately someone has replaced the rear wheel . If anyone has a 6" Sportstyl wheel that they would be willing to part with I would be very interested in purchasing it . Thanks

Thanks to all that replied to my post , I searched and searched and couldn't find anything on it that looked like mine. I will check the date code on the engine, I really didn't think it was original to the bike but after reading this it very well may be the engine that came on it. Also I saw...

I picked this Sportstyl mini bike up this week and I haven't been able to find one exactly like on the internet, I am sure someone on here knows all about it. So I would like to know the model and whats year it might be.

I found my Comet belt & torque converter chart , your set up is close to the Comet TC-88 which uses a 5/8 top width belt. They list a 33-1/4" length belt and with a 7" driven unit you should be at about 8-3/4" from the center of the crankshaft to the center of the jackshaft according to their chart.

I would look on Comets website you should be able to determine a belt length and adjust your motor accordingly

Thanks for the information , I was wondering about that Tecumseh it seemed to big for the trike.

I like yours better , that is a nice looking trike. What size engine do you have on it ?

A guy I was talking to at an automotive swap meet told me about this trike he had behind the garage ,he told me to take a look at it and if I liked it to get it. the heck out of there . So I did what any of you would have done. I brought it home and took a few pictures to share with OldMiniBikes.

I need a 5.70/5.00x8 Lawn and Garden tire for the front of my Pacesetter Trail Buck , its a Goodyear tire but I would take whatever I could get .

Looks good it will be a big help to everyone.
