Now create a method named charge that sets the new barCount field to the maximum amount of bars available for each GoKar

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here...

GoKart.java 
class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
  private String color;
  private int barCount;
  }

  public void charge() {
    barCount = MAX_BARS;
  }

  public GoKart(String color) {
    this.color = color;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }


}

Hi there! You have a syntax error. Immediately below your private barCount; you have a stray closed curly brace. It believes that to now be the end of the class definition. Remove the closed curly brace, and your code passes! :sparkles:
