    Gamma goat only goes Thirty Miles an hour..

    I can not say definatly I know. The Governor actually has adjustment screws..One outside made the engine rev higher but no additinal speed..The second you had to take off a small cover and two bolts, just increased the idle rpm and nothing else...There is a third screw that I havn't the time to...

    Wrong tube in a Goat tire and no Skirt...

    To be fair I saw it was tubless in the discription but since my Gammagoat actually had tubes in them I thought it was some wierd nomenclature trick where they were telling you if you ordered them you had to order the tubes seperatly.. My greatest mystery was solved today when the resident old...

    Wrong tube in a Goat tire and no Skirt...

    Gama Goat -yes or no???

    I just drove my Goat forty miles to an Military Family day in Cape Cod. Was quite a site rumbling over the Bourne Bridge and oddly no one gave me any crap in the rotarys. After more than a year of working on it, doing brakes ect I feel like I have a real skill and since I can work on it at my...

    Gamma Goat wheel hub Maintaince

    I used a fancy bleeder yesterday and after my Gammagoat told me to kiss its Fanny I went old school and bled them all with a buddy. I thought I had them adjusted well enough but the test ride showed one doing a ton of work and two others doing nothing. Is there a special tool besides a...

    Gamma Goat wheel hub Maintaince

    I started the noble goal of a wheel a day....The old Coot who really restored the Goat said he took of some Hubs and they looked fine a year ago. Oddly when I gt My Goat the three brake inspection ports that take the three quater inch drive were missing on the right side... The Hubs on the...

    Gama Goat -yes or no???

    In the past twelve months I have probably put 200 miles on my Goat. Mostly it is rumbling around on side roads in Mass or in a event ect. It even pulls the Kraut howitzer we have at the American Legion in parades. The Pro's are nobody can walk past it, It is unique and pretty fun to drive...

    Gamma Goat wheel hub Maintaince

    Just starting taking the Wheel hubs / brake drums off my goat and learned quite a bit today. I figure to take one wheel off a day and really inspect / lube it.

    What ever floats your Goat...

    Half the fun of owning a vehicle like this is getting it out there with your buddy's and trying to make it do things like swimming it, thirty years after it's made....."real" goat experience is keeping it running which is unique and actually rumbling around with it (town ect)... Floating it is...

    What ever floats your Goat...

    I would have never floated it without a cable attached hence ofcourse they had to attach it after the crap hit the fan..My first thoughts were we had just backed it out a wee bit and give it an overall check but the water was a bit deeper than expected so suddenly (if that makes sence) and when...
