TKM isn’t my speciality so I may be wrong on this, but isn’t it just the engine that is being described as a Junior because it is 100cc, the chassis is a standard Venom Sidewinder that can be used for Junior and Senior TKM? I’m sure there are not cadet sized chassis available for TKM.

Obviously the seat might not fit, pedals and steering wheel must be adjusted too, but this is true for all second hand karts if the buyer is a different size than the seller. Paul Carr Racing made the Venom chassis before going over to Tony Kart Viper, so you can get spares, set up and new seat position if you contact them.

The best advice everyone on this forum should give you is DO NOT buy the first kart you see, go to at least a couple of races, look and ask plenty of questions, you will probably find a lot of good deals at the track at this time of year. That’s not to say that the Ebay kart isn’t good value (I don’t specialise in TKM), just that you should check out your local tracks first.

Your local tracks are Three Sisters and Hooton Park, hope this is of help.
