Yeah, what mfg ever lied about that? Odd the SSR XF250 is listed as #327 so to only way to know is to know.

I'm thinking of using my heat gun to remove the red stickers. I only bought the "red" one because it's the only color choice that came with the red frame. Otherwise, they are all the same black bike with different color stickers. I am not sure if the stickers make the bike look more cheap.

What do you guys think? Should I ditch the stickers and go with an all black look?

The swingarm sticker for sure is over the top.

That's a tuff one, but it's a great looking bike. I think it will look good either way.

if it was me id remove all stickers besides the tank stickers... the ones on the tank complement the frame nice might leave the front fender sticker too but get rid off the headlight swing arm side plates and rear fender stickers first and see how that looks. curious to hear how it rides off road with 17 17 rims and those tires got me curious too im sure they are decent on road but off road id like to know

glad you got out on it i got out on my tt250 today had a blast

timcosby · 04-16-2019, 11:34 PM

the hawk stickers just peeled off. no heat gun required.

Sochin · 04-16-2019, 11:35 PM

WOW, that's fer sure is a good looking scoot. Looks like very high quality.

Ski_rush · 04-16-2019, 11:45 PM

I did a crude mock-up on my phone. Now...I’m thinking keep them.

Bruces · 04-17-2019, 02:52 AM

I kind of like the stickers as they are .

HK_Godess · 04-17-2019, 04:18 AM

You should keep the stickers I would only remove the ones by the fork guards and the swingarm

The Apollo looks like the best deal,better swing arm and upside down forks,better rear shock and a reliable zongshen true 249cc engine possibly?

I agree, if only they would sell the 21/18 wheel version of this bike here as well. It does exist, and I think a lot more people would be interested (I know I would be).

As far as the decals go, I personally think they need to go, but I have a bias against graphics. I do agree at least with the idea of removing them from the swing arm and fork guards to minimize them.
