Apollo AGB-36 250cc new bike order

So I've been looking at full sized bikes for a while now and finally decided to pull the trigger.
After emailing back and forth with Don at APSCUSA to get some quotes for a couple of days, i placed my order for 5 250cc Apollo AGB 36 dirt bikes, 1 for me, 1 for my 16 year old, 1 for my father-in-law, and 2 for brother in laws.
With the 5 bike perches it came to $1271 per bike shipped.
I have been floating around the forum here for a wile now learning about different bikes and really appreciate all the info i have been able to find, so thanks to all for all the great info.
Yesterday i got concerned after reading some of the trouble that some people have had with APSCUSA so i sent an email to Don asking what kind of shipping times i could expect.
I really didn't expect to hear from him until tomorrow, but got an email back in only a couple hours, he said the shipping company should be able to pick the bikes up in 24 to 48 hrs and ship time to me would be 3 to 4 days, and when he was in the office tomorrow he would get better info and let me know, so best case i should have some bikes the week of the 26th.
Well I'll let you know how it all turns out and get some pics up once we get the bikes

Thumbs Up

Don't want to hear it from your adult relations about how rider dad bought crap bikes. It's their responsibility on the care and feeding of these bikes . Hope they know the drill.

Good luck and keep posting, were happy to hear from you!

I hear you black bike.
We have been riding ssr pit bikes for a couple of years so they know the drill.
It helps that my father in law was a honda mechanic years back and we all like working on bikes together.
I got shipping confirmation yesterday, so im hoping to have some bikes by the middle of next week.

Three of us worked on the 5 bikes for around 8hrs between last night and this afternoon-evening and got them all put together and running.

Are they all the same species?. Don't look all the same

Looks like your ready to open your own dealership

The 5 parked out front are all AGB-36 dirt bikes.
3 black
2 red-white
And we mixed up some of the plastic and pulled some of the stickers to individualize the bikes a little.
Just hauled them out to my place to do some riding this afternoon-evening.
Will probably take it easy today and do another oil chang next week.
As far as opening a dealership, we have actually talked aboit it but it hasn't got much past that.
Would need to make some contacts with importers so we could get the best prices.
It would be a fun business if we could figure out how to make it work.

Please don't take half of my comments seriously
