yamaha karts first time i have ever seen them, was in new england , back in 1976 or 77, a company called venture sold these, straight shaft engine, there was a kid with a good running mac 49 that would smoke them then later came the five in reed class, 92 engine with a thick head gasket,yamaha had to run a rest. of some sort , and ran against the 92 with the thicker head gasket still beat em.the newer engines,that yamaha made, where much better, but not vintage,the good stuff,very durable engine,early style yamaha karts, the carb was facing the back of engine,as far as i know,still a good class in some areas,p.s. i have one, that i run on a modern chassis.they are a neat looking chassis i know a man in N.H.WHO still has his, wont sell it but it is mint shape.
