EZ GO with polaris indy 500 engine
Hi guys I am new here just had some questions. Some time ago a friend of mines wife passed away and he needed some money. I bought his EZ GO that had a Polaris Indy 500 2 cylinder 2 stroke snowmobile engine swap done. It has an atv front end with coil over shocks front and rear. When I got it the engine was not running so I rebuilt the engine and just fired it up today. This thing is fun. The only real problem I see is whoever done the front end did not do the steering correctly so it doesn't steer that well but other than that it seems to have been done pretty well. I know pics would help but I just figured I would see if anyone here had any interest in it first. I just don't have the time to put into this thing to finish it up but it is all there and drivable it just needs some refining done, other than the steering its ready to go. If anyone has interest in this let me know and I will post some pics. Thanks.

Re: EZ GO with polaris indy 500 engine
Pics and location?
And maybe a move to the "For Sale" section? |

Re: EZ GO with polaris indy 500 engine
Curtis...... It's no big deal that you started off on the wrong foot....it happens sometimes. More appropriately we should have said "Welcome to BGW!". Stay a while and get to know the folks here and once you have poked around a bit and posted the minimum posts, head over to the for sale thread and post your machine there. Anyway, good luck with your project.

Re: EZ GO with polaris indy 500 engine
It sounds really nice, I can't wait to see some pics of it.
Sorry to hear about your shop, glad you're in the rebuild phase though. |

Re: EZ GO with polaris indy 500 engine
There is a for sale section but certain functions on the forum aren't usable until you have a certain number of posts. Sorry to hear about your shop. I'm an avid shooter (job requirement) so it's good to know a class 3 guy. Now this particular thread is definitely appropriate is you are thinking if fixing the the cart yourself and maybe you should hold on to it until you're back on your feet with the shop. There is also a couple of sections for custom carts that you should have access to. There are a ton of knowledgeable folks here who will gladly help you with the project.

Re: EZ GO with polaris indy 500 engine
Lets just breathe lol....... You have a 1989 Marathon body and frame. Run your serial here:
http://www.shopezgo.com/customer-ser...ialNumber.html Other than that, I dont have any experience with the Polaris engine setup. The steering issue is gonna require a little more info and some diagnosis to figure out but not beyond the realm of possibility to get straight. There are a couple of guys who are close to "subject matter experts" in this year model. One of which is "1989 Marathon" Hes done a ton of custom stuff with that year cart and would be a good resource for you to pick his brain. |
