Kart Identification

[Bruce Work]

I have a Birel kart withthe numbers on the bearing hanger M632 and 520591. What can be told from this and what year is the kart?

[Garry Lobaugh]

M632 is a 32 mm tube kart. The first of these arrivedin 1995. The other number is a serial number. There is no other way to tell the age of the kart other than the history provided by the sellers. That is the best I can do. This was replaced by the following:

CR832- 1998
CR932-1999
CR32X 2000
CR32 V & Z2002
CR32 SR and 2003
then this year's model CR32 SP
Since it says M only that should imply 12 degree spindles for a 2 cycle application. If it has the letter C infront of the M then it is a shifter style chassis with 10 degree spindles. Hope this helps. Garry
