Hey fellow kart racers, parents, and crew chiefs - keeping your 4-cycle kart safe and reliable is job one, especially in the heat of clone or LO206 battles. Whether you're dodging headers on slides or ensuring clean fuel flow, these picks help you focus on the win line without distractions.

Safety Tip: Always double-check fitment with your chassis and engine setup, and confirm class rules before installing any upgrades.

ARC Big Bertha Clone Chain Guard with Header Shield

This beefy guard from ARC is built for Honda GX200 or clone engines, perfect for those aggressive leans where headers become a hazard. Its taller, longer fin offsets further out, giving bigger drivers extra buffer against singes. Made from 3/16-inch thick aluminum, it laughs off impacts and pairs right up with ARC headers thanks to pre-drilled angled mounts.

  • Protects chain and pipe in one vertical design
  • Clears space for hoses and easy maintenance
  • Favorite of pros for track toughness
