Why the input shaft?

Would be a whole lot easier to just watch your speed ..baring that
have your Yamaha dealer slow it down for you....

In Florida if your caught on the public street in a golf cart going over 20 mph in a non street legal cart the fine is operating a non registered vehicle resulting in almost 1,000 dollar fines, court costs, and garage bill to verify the cart is in compliance in court. I live in the villages too. Enforcement by the police and sheriff's here are non aggressive at best and only have jurisdiction on public roads, not our series of private cart paths. I'd estimate over 75 percent of the villagers have golf carts that can go well past 20. A really stupid thing to do because the braking and handling of a golf cart is not designed for more than 12 mph.

Input shaft has these 3 weights & collar that are the heart of your governor. The collar wears down, and the 3 weights escape their intended position. After that happens, the 3 weights can no longer act on the throttle cable to regulate speed.

My governor still works, you can feel it engage. So hopefully I am not dismantling yet for an input shaft, also if there was no governor it would dramatically over speed in neutral, so maybe it's in the throttle cables, I will look there next.

Yep Florida doesn't call it speeding after 20 MPH unless your register the golf cart limiting you to 35 MPH. I was told by a Yamaha tech golf carts are only designed for golf course use, not highway. The only problem with speeding golf carts here in the villages is the multi model cart paths. Some people treat golf carts like toys here.

Slow down there Barney.

thats a large gap there isnt it. from golf course to highway. of course they arent designed to go on the highway but to say the braking systems arent designed for more than 12mph when you can buy them from the dealer that go faster than that. Have you even seen the braking system on a newer cart or any cart for that matter?

You married to Karen?

LOL. I'm not trying to be a Barney and I'm not married to a Karen. Both my golf carts will go up to 25 mph but I don't drive them on a public street that fast. I'm just relaying the information given to me by a Yamaha service tech when I had a rear shock absorbers replaced. He did say carts ordered from dealers like the villages are better braking and suspension packages but you are still asking a lot in an emergency maneuver. I never stated it couldn't be done.

Still if you are in an accident and your cart is governed above 20 mph, be ready for trouble and to get sued if someone is hurt.
