Raket engines

The first Raket engine was introduced in 1972. Extensive re-

search for a reliable, simple to use, yet fun to drive go-kart engine 

at an acceptable price, had convinced Radne Motor to start the 

manufacture of such an engine. Power chain saw engines are the 

toughest two stroke engines that are built, and Radne Motor de-

cided to build the go-kart engine on well-tested vital parts. Hence, 

cylinder and piston, crankshaft, carburettor and ignition system 

were purchased. Radne Motor manufactured other parts that are 

typical for a go-kart engine, like the aluminium crankcase. Finally, 

the engine was assembled and tested by Radne Motor before it 

was shipped. All Raket engines have been built around this con-

cept, which has proven to be very successful.

Today the Raket line of engines consist of:

Raket 60

 for the very young drivers. This engine has rope start, 

centrifugal clutch and forced air cooling. It can be equipped with 

catalytic emission control and a rev. limiter.

Raket 85

 is the most popular and most produced Raket engine. It 

is used in many countries for the youngest drivers. Often the same 

engine is used with some type of power restrictor for the youngest, 

and later, with the restrictor removed, for the more professional 

drivers. The Raket 85 engine has a whole series of extras and 

conversion kits, so it can be used also for indoor driving and for 

rental kart use.

Raket 120

 is used mainly for Ultra Light Aircraft, so called Para-

gliders. This engine is extremely powerful for its low weight. 

But Raket 120 has found many more uses, both for go-kart and 

where the low weight in combination with high power and good 

reliability is appreciated.

Spare parts and service for the Raket engines are available from 

Radne Motor or from our distributors. We recommend that you 

consult our catalogue. A new catalogue is produced every year, 

in which you find the latest parts and also hints for the best use of 

your Raket engine.
