Registry: 1921 CycleKart German

Don - congratulation on your unorthodox and magnificent CycleKart! Zoran

Its not the best looking but its FAST!!!

... you know how it is fast - but, I tell you that it is the Best Looking! Zoran

The people didnt even give me but one vote when it came to judging on Sat afternoon,that told me alot.I really dont care,it was just plain fun to be there and talking to all the different Kart owners,seeing all the different builds.When someone needed help the guys would help out when they had a free moment.Had a couple with motor problems,tire problems,just misc stuff going on.My kart is far from being done,I had to rush the last 36 hours to be just able to be there in Tieton.I was up all night puting the last few boards on,puting it all back together and a quick drive around the yard before loading it up.I had a chain problem on the second lap,then again during the relay race.I got it fixed later then to be pushing it back from the orchard couple miles out of town from a burnt up belt(too tall of gearing),it was closing in on 90 degrees already.Didnt have extra parts so I headed home.Thanks for the kind words Zoran,its not my best work but it drives!!!

That is a nice looking Kart with character , it was cool to see it in Dennis You Tube videos from Tieton. Hope to see more of your build, get back at it and have fun with your Kart.

Im still working out some bugs and it still hasnt been unloaded from my trailer since I had gone.I hope to have it out soon before the snow hits so I can finish up with some of the detail work,I have a new belt,a new basket for the rear,some seat supplies,and a few other items.The windshield frame has yet to be made,I want to refit the hood,make some headlight buckets,change the steering some,put the hubcaps on ,get it painted before I take it out again

... that is never-ending project, triumph of imagination and craftmanship! Don, keep dreaming and building - rolling, too! Regards, Zoran.

Here it is almost thanksgiving and its still in the trailer.Damn,I need to find some free time!!! Seems like just when I get a minute something else happens!!!Before you know it Christmas will have come and gone

Well its Dec 5th and still havnt found time to winterize my trailer,put up Christmas lights,I did somehow find time to decorate the tree and put the plastic snow man in the yard!!!

Here it is Jan 13th 2016,still in my trailer,when am I ever going to get some free time???Now im dealing with divorce crap,she owes me around 8k in repayment of bills she didn't pay.Im here at work waiting for parts to show up!!!

Finally got the divorce crap out of the way,$7300 was the final bottom line,then gave $1550 to my lawyer.Quad is paid off too!!!!Hope to dig it out this weekend to do some repairs from last years racing

Don, everything is good that finished good! ... even divorce, if it is necessary... as suportive, understanding and tolerant wife is one of the main condition for every DIY project - you are now free? Good luck in following life, keep building and driving! Zoran

i like it it is diferent i would be happy if i could build one as goood ronald r phillips

Its May 26th 2019,I havnt done anything with my kart due to my finance issues.I flew over to Sandusky Ohio to see my folks and younger brother last month which also set me back quite a bit.I also have another project that is keeping me from clearing out my shop to work,it takes up most of the area.My new trailer you saw me with had some water leaks that cost $5K to fix,just couldnt ignore that one which left me broke for a while.Stay safe guys,dont ignore safety when your building,practice your welding skills before going onto your build.I spent lots of time fixing stuff for others on this last Tieton trip,it might be telling you something.Hope to see you all again soon

Its Sept 8 2019,still no progress on my Kart,garage is full of stuff to be sold and its raining.Been loving the posts people have made over the summer,needless to say I had a rough summer with all the things happening family related.I cant seem to find free time but here and there with all the home chores.My house still needs a roof,my storage shed is leaking and falling apart,I did manage to get my travel trailer water leak dealt with($5100.00 worth),I think the yard has suffered the most this year with all the grass popping up in the flower beds.I want to get back to it very soon

Really nice design!

Am starting on building two CK's. One vintage racer style and one CCBB just because I love it. Yours is an inspiration. The ladies in my family will love it.
