Just thought I will put some pics of my GOKA 650cc buggy for you all to look at................

Well here I am, back after a long cold winter. Still got the buggy and over the winter months saved up enough money to get it taxed and insured again and get some decent road tyres - Kenda speedracers front and rear. What a difference they make . Obviously on road they give a smoother ride but (and I cant understand this) the backfiring on deceleration has gone.

If you want to see it search youtube(uk) for "buggy at roker" or link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=437ThDcr-us

Happy buggying to you all.

It looks like your front fenders turn with the tire, is that correct? Would you post a picture of the fender brackets showing what the brackets are attched to?

No problem-They do turn with the steering. I will post a pic on Sunday cos its dark now and I'm on a 12 hour shift tomorrow.

Nice ride I could fall in love with,but this rig looks like it was built for street running not for off trail running.Am I right or wrong? mancoman

Hi,
Originally got it with the intension for street and will make additions and upgrades focussed on that. Apparently I can now buy slip-diff for just that reason and thats my next replacement.
But it will go offroad no problem as many will testify to.

sunderland let us know how she does off road. mancoman

Hahahahaha sorry didnt mean to laugh out loud. I live in the North East of England which boasts some of the best countryside in the Uk but I'm dammed if I can find anywhere to go offroad legally.
Regards, Andy

sunderland I've got to have my dirt and mud,find a way to get you and your buggy over here and we at bn will show you how to be a pig.Sucks you can't any place to offroad. mancoman

About your backfire, my 650 backfires when the weather gets cold. I was told to adjust the air mixture with the air adjustment screw on the carb. I did this and decreased the frequence of the backfire, but did'ent eliminate the problem.
Goodluck and enjoy the warmer weather.
