Have you ever met a kid who doesn’t love GoKarts? It’s possible, but the younger set sure does seem to like them a lot.
In looking at the various exciting models available, one of the first questions will be whether to purchase a double-seater or a single-seater. The double-seaters are more popular as kids love to ride together and, with some larger models, an older rider or adult may be able to “tag along”. But the single-seater also is available and may fit the bill for certain situations.
Safety is always a top priority for parents and grandparents and quality GoKarts have sturdy top bars, secured seat belts and a low center of gravity. If you purchase a GoKart for your youngster, there is the added safety factor of being able to PERSONALLY monitor his or her riding and not being worried about where they are and who is providing what may be inadequate supervision.
It’s a wise decision to purchase a well-built GoKart from a reputable company and avoid cheap and flimsy “toys” from a box store. You will be surprised at how affordable many sturdy models can be – they won’t break the pocketbook.
At www.familygokarts.com we have been delivering family fun for 30 years and can help you make the right decision and provide excellent service before and after the sale. We have the long-term track record and can provide reviews and sales and service history from our many satisfied customers over the years.
Go-Karting can lead to many hours of fun for the entire family and it gets your child outside for good recreational activity and away from cell phones and video games. It also placers your young rider on the road to learning how to operate and maintain a vehicle, something that will prove useful in the years ahead.
In considering the perfect GoKart for your child, we invite you to take a look at some of our most popular double-seater models and two single-seaters. These models have received great reviews from our customers and have proven to be very reliable and relatively maintenance-free:
DOUBLE-SEATERS
*TrailMaster Mini XRX/R Plus — TrailMaster has upgraded their popular Mini XRX/R kids GoKart with the bigger Mini XRX/R Plus. The Plus model includes all the same features as the original XRX, but also boasts a wider frame, wider seat, extra legroom and taller frame, along with bigger front and rear tires! You get the proven 4-stroke, single-cylinder engine matched to an automatic transmission with reverse turning a solid rear live axle for excellent traction on any terrain. This buggy also features LED headlights, an adjustable sports seat, adjustable pedals, 5-point seat harnesses, a horn and more. A speed governor and remote control on/off keep parents in complete control. Comes in several colors.
*Tao GK110 – The GK110 is another great kids GoKart from TaoTao USA. This model includes all the amenities usually found on full-sized buggies, but it’s sized just for kids and includes an adjustable seat with a seat to pedal distance from 27.5 to 31 inches. Tao built in standard features like a low-maintenance, 4-stroke engine and automatic transmission with reverse, full suspension, hydraulic disc brakes, and a rugged tubular steel frame. Big, 16-inch, all-terrain tires are larger than on most youth sized GoKarts, offering a generous 3.5-inch ground clearance for excellent handling on the trail. Plus, it comes with a parental remote control for extra safety, and a speed limiter on the accelerator pedal to make sure the kiddos can only go as fast as you want them to. Choice of several colors.
*TrailMaster Mini XRX Plus – If you’re looking for a kids GoKart, but want something just a little bit bigger than most, take a look at the TrailMaster Mini XRX Plus. The Plus says it all! This is the slightly larger brother to the popular Mini XRX, with a wider frame, wider seat, extra legroom and best of all, a much taller frame and bigger front and rear tires! The Mini XRX Plus also features an adjustable sport bench seat, adjustable pedals, and 5-point safety harnesses to ensure a safe, snug fit for your little ones that still leaves plenty of room to grow! You also get TrailMaster’s proven 163cc, 4-stroke single cylinder engine. Plus, this buggy is equipped with a speed governor and remote shut-off so parents have total control. Comes in several color options.
SINGLE-SEATERS
*Go-Bowen 1000W Electric GoKart – Are you tired of the high prices of Peg Perego and other electric ride-on toys with plastic wheels and flimsy construction that break or stop working after the first year? Then you need to see Go-Bowen’s newest GoKart for kids. This all-electric model is the perfect way to introduce your little ones to the thrill of the ride! Kid-sized fun with the same rugged construction of a full sized GoKart! You get a high-tensile steel frame, pneumatic off-road tires and disc brakes, all powered by a 48V, 1000-watt brushless motor. Brushless motors offer better efficiency, more power, longer battery life, fewer moving parts and last longer than the cheaper brushed motors found on department store battery ride-ons. Besides a standard seat belt, extra safety comes from a speed control limiting system that lets parents choose from 10, 13 and 17 mph settings. The seat fits most children up to approximately 165 lbs. This kids GoKart runs much more smoothly and quieter than department store electric rides, and it goes just as far, with an average run time of around 2 hours between charges. Save money and get your kids a GoKart that will last long enough for them to outgrow it!
*Go-Bowen GK79 – If you’re looking for a classic, single seater GoKart fun machine, look no further than the new 79cc gas cart from Go-Bowen! Already well known for producing top quality electric powered rides for kids, Go-Bowen has now applied their same proven performance and unique styling to this completely gas-powered unit. Features a 79.5cc overhead valve, 4-stroke engine so you never have to mix oil and gas. And the automatic, centrifugal clutch means little ones can ride without worrying about shifting. A chain drive and big, 13-inch pneumatic tires help put the engine’s 2.5 horsepower straight to the ground for maximum performance, while the hydraulic rear disc brake offers fast, smooth stopping power. The tubular steel frame is extra rigid and strong, and includes an upper roll bar and side nerf bars. A full treadplate floor, seat belt, and padded steering wheel round out the safety features to keep kids protected while riding. Available in red or black.
