Default How long of a ride can my G1 go on

This is a question I have had for sometime. My G1 has been rebuilt and I just did new crank seals, motor mounts and new diff seals. It runs like a champ. I have always wondered how long of a trail ride it can handle. It have the gov but it is adjusted so my cart does about 18mph. Any input would be great. in the past I just run around campground trails. This next time I go out I will be going out with some friends and they all have 4 strokes. we would be doing possibly 20+ miles. will I be ok or not? thanks

20 miles is a relatively short ride.

Shouldn't have a problem doing 20 miles at least a couple times.

Do I need to worry about getting too hot?

No, just wear a light t-shirt and shorts, and you should be fine.

I'm just messing with you. Keep the engine fins clean, and the engine shrouds in place and you'll be fine.

I used to run mine up to 6+ hours in one trip. Its a G9 but I'd take a similar G1 and not think about it.
