Hi all, just purchased a 2015 AZX 250 Apollo dirt bike. I mostly trial ride and took it out for a 2 hour maiden voyage. A few things that I did right away before riding, started, idled and cooled off 3 times for break in. Took EPA stuff off right away. It has the PK30 carb on it and seems to be running correctly.
Like that Upstate NY rider, I am looking for a little more grunt and unfortunately I found this thread after I ordered a 41 tooth rear sprocket instead of a 12T front. Here

I would have rather done the front. I read through his thread but it was not clear to me whom he ordered that from. I am not ready to change the carb out yet to a mikini as I feel my limitations are suspension related.
From the box it seems to be set on the lowest adjustment in the rear, I have to raise it up to see how the suspension responds, but I have already ordered a rear air shock

Moving to the front, I just bought some mineral fork oil to add. I am 6' and 200 pounds, so anything over 3 feet off the ground equals me smashing the suspension dangerously. I think I would also like to change the bars to these moose racing Burleson cut type. The arm fatigue after just a few hours riding was amazing, this bike suspension wise worked me over. I also have a 2000 KTM 250 2 stroke that I ride (left it in denver and get there once every 1.5 months) and that is plush in comparison.

has anyone added these? I think I will need some type of adapter assuming this is not a direct bolt on. Other add on's would be a joker billet aluminium throttle and that should just about round it out. Going drill out the rivets on the muffler and unpack it...oh yes, has anyone put an air cone filter on this yet? Any recommendations?
Any feedback on better front forks? Any cross over suspension that works with the OEM brake calipers?
Will add a photo later, but I think anyone would know this bike, black with the 36 logo on it.
My name is Max by the way and I live in Atlanta, GA now. I also ride in Denver regularly and out in the Northwest in the cascade mountain range in Washington state and Oregon. Riding plans are possible Moab trip in April and a definite mining town, back country ride in Steamboat CO area in mid June. Glad to make new friends here, so thank you for your time, consideration to my questions and reply.
Warmest regards.
