The RK1 Engine is a 4-stroke engine specially developed for karting. The concept originated from
the market demand for a simple and affordable way to step into the world of karting.
Karts equipped with the RK1 engine can run on almost any existing kart track, due to the low noise
level and friendly smooth character of the engine. RK1 engines are suitable for almost any existing 4-stroke
kart chassis and on many modern CIK homologated 2-Stroke chassis.
RK1 engines are equally suitable for recreational purposes or official race competitions.
Reliability
RK1 engines are not in a testing phase, but consumer ready and have already
proven themselves over a number of years to be extremely reliable.
Technical
RK1 is, unlike many other existing 4-stroke engines, very quiet (89 dBA) and has the unique
property of perfect speed / power bandwidth. Both properties are a must for todays modern kart
experience. RK1 engines are elecrically started and have an electric generator, that while driving, will contnue to charge the battery.
