Get the Apollo 250 Deluxe! I happened to get it before they raised the price up, but if you wait the holidays, black friday, etc. they have sale's. It's a 2019 model made 07/19. Was fresh off boat in first real batch sent to the USA. Came no damages . When you buy one of these street legal bikes, make sure you request your MCO or fill the website's MCO form out. Theres usually a link on their website's starting MCO Request from. I learned hard way... Get rid of handle bars and do yourself a favor and get yourself a set of Pro Taper 7/8 handlebars (cr high bend). I got the platinum color on my black bike plastics. Goes together very nicely... I got pair of serpentine mirrors off
ebay for literally 12.00 USD. Get yourself a rear shock cover from Aliexpress.com. By the way Aliexpress app or site has a lot of part's for these CB 250 Zongshen engines. Apollo db 36 deluxe comes with a CB250engine. CB's have Overhead cam. The Hawks have the CG 250 engine. They are really 223cc. Everything from front sprocket covers and even exact stock replacement cover. They got whole air cooled engine gasket sets, pistons Kits etc.. I changed out my carb to a different PZ 30 carb and did away with choke at control and cable. I actually have a few you tube videos on YouTube. One is a walk around on my 2019 Apollo deluxe. I also have an apollo dbx 18 125. I did a lot to that. Like buy an extra set of stock tires and replaced them with irc heavy duty tubes and Michelin city grip street tires, basically made the dbx 18 street legal from scratch.
but if your interested I have a video and description of what I did to both. Just search YouTube for "all in one apollo db 36 250 walk around" the other video is " all in one changes I've made to apollo rfz 18" And few more if your able to find them. They both been great running bikes. I highly maintain and keep my things clean. I wired up headlights, taillights with pressure banjo bolts and all for working brake light on the rfz 18. Good learning bikes for people to start on also. The deluxe is one of the better looking 250 chinese bikes, in my opinion. Especially when you change them handle bars & those mirrors. I put a 16 tooth on front of deluxe and in motion of trying to find a 35 tooth 520 rear sprocket. Having hell of time finding one. Just gonna have one custom made from rebelsprockets.com. only aluminum they make. I would not use the potentionly leaky battery they give you with bike. Please do yourself another big favor and go on
ebay and buy the Zipp sealed 12 volt 5.7 amp battery . For 19.99. Or you can get 2 of mighty max 12volt 5 amp for 23.99
ebay. Preferably The Zipp battery.. trust... I did a lot of research on this type of stuff so. This picture was before I cleaned off spring, screen and magnet. I put a little bigger than a dime sized neodymium cheerios shaped magnet snuggly inside screen and it turned the screen and actual spring into slightly magnetic that attracted a surprised amount of metal shavings. It collected so much shavings, big time. I'll upload another photo of what it left on sheet. This was only 105 miles since previous oil change. 252-357 miles. I changed 3 other times before this. Maybe slight overkill Slight. Make sure ya check out the Apollo's. You'll be wanting one. Hopefully all goes well for ya folks. Have a good one ....
