There are varying reasons behind a person’s motivation to off-road, race or cruise around in a go cart, but all types of riders eventually become interested in the top quality models and new features that are added because of the higher performance ride that is guaranteed. Prices for go cart models vary from the cheapest you can think of to unimaginable prices for full size, decked out carts. Within the range of go cart prices is a variety of designs fit for an equally large range of experience levels.
Kids new to go cart riding are a large target in the industry, which is why there are so many models suitable for young children, sometimes younger than 10, as well as models made for older kids. Yerf Dog and Ken-Bar both carry a large line of kids go carts. These manufacturers have specialized for years in designing and creating go carts that best fit their customer’s need and their children’s go cart models are no exception.
Because kids are a large part of Yerf Dog and Ken-Bar’s customer base they have several models for children of all ages and sizes. Adjustable seats are one of the most helpful features because they make a go cart comfortable for a wider range of
people. Seat belts and other safety precautions are promoted highly along with the advertisements for kids go cart models from these manufacturers. In many of the places you buy Ken-Bar go carts a safety helmet is included with the go cart purchase, which helps promote kid’s safety.
Ken-Bar has a line of semi-pro go cart designs of all different sizes. The semi-pro carts are high quality and long lasting, but the higher horsepower engines may not be proper for a young child’s first cart. However, Ken-Bar’s semi-pro go carts are great for beginning or experienced adults and older, experienced kids.
Most of the designs have a six horsepower engine, like Ken-Bar’s Streaker and Race Hawk designs. These semi-pro go carts have jig welded frames to provide better driving and steering accuracy. Each of Ken-Bar’s semi-pro go carts has slightly
different sizes to accommodate all riders. The largest of the semi-pros allows nearly 40 inches of maximum leg room with adjustable seats, making it suitable for almost any driver.
Yerf Dog is a United States go cart manufacturer and one of the most popular and used in the nation. The majority of Yerf Dog’s go cart designs are intended for off-road use because they are not valid for use on roads with normal vehicles. Yerf Dog does have a line of larger, full size go carts that can be licensed for regular street use, but only in states where laws are permitting.
The 3203 model go cart from Yerf Dog is one of their top quality, full size carts that has been awarded best off-road performance. This go cart has a 6.5 horsepower engine, seats two kids or adults comfortably and has a maximum speed of 35 mph.

in this Yerf Dog model because of it ease to travel nearly anywhere. With the rack it can be a used as a utility vehicle, for camping or on the beach.
