There are quite a few happy owners of GK-06's on here. Most people seem to be pretty happy with them. However, if I were you I would purchase from a different dealer. Gokartsusa.com has a horrible reputation. Basically once they get your money, then they are done with you. No after sale support or warranty support. If you don't have a local dealer I'd suggest awesomebuggy.com if you really want the GK-06.

They may have some parts......but some of the prices are ridiculously sky-high.

Their GK-06 parts must be made of gold.

$296 for a carb?
$168 for a stock 250 clutch?
And how bout $148 for a CVT belt? (I sell em for $3Cool.

Not any better on the GY6 150cc prices.

Holy crap. I just checked out their parts online and....Holy crap. $297 for that little radiator? $53 for an air filter?

Yeah, I'd say stay away from that dealer.

Just bought a GK-13B from Awesomebuggy.com, only took them 6 actual days to proccess paperwork AND deliever my buggy to my door step from nearly 1600 miles away with every kind of courtesy phone call made to walk me through the statis of the delivery. I will always use Awesombuggy. Type of payment was debit/check card over phone. I call my bank and told them the amount that was going to be pulled and they cleared it. Best part.... No tax if you don't live in AZ and NO shipping costs. What you see on the sight for price is what you pay. If you buy 2 buggies at the same time, you can wheel in a deal and save $50 off each buggy. Noone else I talked to wanted to cut a deal.

My kids have had a GK-06 for two years now and drive the crap out of it (med, jumps, sand). They got stuck in some deep sand and smoked a clutch, other than that they have have no problems.

My GK-39 is similar and has not let me down.

Damn those prices are high.
