If you're dumb enough to have your tail pipe facing up, and park out in the rain...

How else to keep water out of the pipes when he washed it?

Oh wait, washing it...what was I thinking. Never mind.

Was that bike on your farm back in the day? Maybe the guy should have pasted on some fake hay sticking out in places, chicken poop all over the top of it, give it more of the ole barn find kinda look?

The guy claims to have not built this and even admits to being scared yet he wants a pretty penny for it. Makes you wonder why he would have bought it himself the first time around.

100hp Golf Cart! Suzuki GSXR powered EZ-Go - $4500 (Sardinia, OH)













OK, what we have here is your standard 100 horsepower golf cart! This 1986 EZ-Go Marathon has a 2002 Suzuki GSXR600 engine and dash installed. The specifications on the bike says it makes 115hp... The install into the cart is actually pretty tidy - I bought it like this and don't know who did the actual work but they did a good job installing the motor, radiator and dash. It is liquid cooled and fuel injected. Runs great. See pictures for details of the install.

Here is a video of me driving the cart - the sound is what gets it: https://youtu.be/LBOLW5PtIGY

Now, the driving experience... this thing is loud, it sounds like an inline 4 cylinder sportbike without much of a muffler, because that's what it is. It really gets loud when you rev it up but if you just poke around, its not too offensive. It definitely turns heads because when people hear the noise they expect to see a motorcycle pull up, and then when they see its a golf cart, well let's just say its surprising. It is a 6 speed with a clutch (foot clutch like a normal manual car). There is a gearshift knob that you push to the right to downshift, and to the left to upshift. It does not have a reverse, so plan accordingly. The brakes aren't great - might need new pads, I haven't looked into it. I usually just downshift to slow down. This thing is not the most stable vehicle in the world and it will go a lot faster than you will have the nerve to drive it. On the street it gets pretty nervous above about 30mph. I'm pretty stupid and this thing scares the crap out of me. I'm selling it before I kill myself in it. I thought it would be fun for my kids but after driving it myself, no way am I letting them drive it.

I suggest this is only driven by very intoxicated people because in a crash, the drunk is always the one who lives through it... The stock gauge cluster from the Suzuki is mounted in the dash and the speedometer works though it reads high due to the gearing of the cart being different than what the bike originally had. The cluster also tells you the coolant temp and has a neutral indicator and the usual other info that is on the motorcycle gauge cluster.

The cart is lifted and has 16" wheels off a Honda car. The headlights and taillights work. I don't have a title for it but I will give you a bill of sale.

You do not want to put a kid behind the wheel unless you don't like the kid, because he WILL crash it.

I'd much prefer you come drive it before you buy it but I realize that only works for local buyers. It is fun to drive and like I said, gets a TON of attention (I mean how many 100hp golf carts do you see rolling around the campground?) but its pretty high strung and definitely not for the faint of heart. It does all work, but again, its not all that stable and I just tool around on it at fairly low speeds. New shocks may make it more stable, I just don't know.

Its not perfect cosmetically - has some dings and scratches and could use some detailing. The seat cushions are brand new. This thing is a novelty item and I wouldn't consider it practical transportation, not by a long shot. When I bought it the seller told me not to romp on it in 1st or 2nd or it will slip in the motor mounts, so I take it easy until its rolling along.

Bummer, golf is boring… Hey lets do wheelies and jumps over the sand pits and greens!
Rip the fairway to shreds!

[oregonjake]

Um, okay. I realize people get bored sometimes, and have tools and parts lying around, but for gods sake, why didn't somebody stop this before it grew? A GSXR powered golf cart than can only do 30 before becoming a death trap. Really? What a waste of a good motor.

Although, a bit of weight in the front end, steering stabilizer, wider tires...

At what speed would the canopy tear itself off, I wonder.

Maybe this is more what the builder had in mind...before the drugs kicked in.

That heap is junk, no front springs?
There's a lot of excellent bike engined kit cars, and race cars available.

[dorkburger]

Looks like it has air ride.

Does every bike have to look like it's from a Batman movie?

Any kind of "Bobber" or "Cafe" made from any kind super sport bike = I'm too broke to buy new plastics but I want you to pay as much for a fully faired sport bike... Also good chance it has a rebuilt title.

I think it looks cool but I wouldn't consider more then $2800 for it...

How did that bike find it's way, way up in the hills?
“Well, throwing out feelers. Price is firm. I owned this bike for 3 years and have not seen another running gt750 listed, so with that said, it's rare. AND COLLECTABLE”
Ok, now I get it: “will trade for vtx 1300 or 1800, a running shovelhead or big twin project, or a really nice running cruzier.”
