Finding The Right Go Kart KitsGo Kart Kits make a great project if you are buying one to build a go kart to your own specs. If you are buying a go-kart kit to save money then you are probably better off buying a complete ready to run go kart as buying the new kit and the engine, clutch etc and paying shipping on all of them will work out about the same price if you know where to shop
The first decision you must make is your go kart kit going to be prewelded or unwelded, most go-kart kits vary in price considerably, prewelded usually costing you an extra 30% or so on top of the unwelded go cart kit price.
Unwelded Go-Kart Kits
If you want an unwelded go cart kit then you will need a mig welder
or access to one and the experience to operate one, if you are
asking a buddy to weld it for you then take into account the amount
of hours you will need him for the job.
Welded Go Kart Kits
If this is a project with your kids then perhaps you should buy a
complete welded kart kit as putting it all together is still a great
project for you all, with lots of interesting things to learn and do.
If you are buying full go karts kits then ensure that the seller
has all of the parts you need to complete the project.
The Best Value Go Cart KitAs far as go-kart kits go the best value kit we could find was at Northern Tool, it cost all up including the engine, clutch etc, about $900 dollars.Northern Tool have all of the extras you need as well, we also purchased our briggs and straton engine and comet go-cart clutch from them as well, they have an extensive go kart parts catalog and by buying all together you save about $80 on shipping.

Cost Breakdown Of Go-Kart Kits
As you can see below go-kart kits can run into quite a time consuming and expensive project and when you compare the price and time needed to complete a go kart from start to finish you will actually find if you shop around (Which we have done for you :) you can buy a new onroad go kart for less than actually building it from a go karts kit.
*Yard Kart Unwelded Frame Kit + parts + engine + shipping $800
If this all seems too daunting then perhaps you should just buy a

An even easier way to build your own go kart is to buy go kart kits. Go Kart Kits can be ordered online and they include every material you need to complete your own go kart, even the engine. Young kids are capable of completing a project themselves by following the guide included with go kart kits. The kits will be more expensive than using scrap materials, but you will probably have a sharper looking end product, although the quality or look of a go cart is not why all people build their own. Go kart kits are great for those who want to save time by not having to search for the building materials, but some people still prefer getting all done themselves, completely from scratch. The choice is yours.
