If you use a dremel or an angle grinder you can cut flat heads into the bolts holding the bowl on that Apollo you can remove it an just put bolts back in it
You know the thingy that comes out when you unscrew the cap on the top of the carb and flip it upside down? The thing that you put the throttle cable into it. Basically if you install it backwards (not upside down but 180• rotated) it won’t limit the fuel at all… when you start it it revves up like crazy that’s probably the issue. Thanks! Hope it works! Worked for me on my Apollo 125 x19 :)
Hello throttle fam, I have a knock off mukuni vm22 carb I installed it on and after 1 ride it started to bog and not want to start, it was running great until I turned it off and now it won’t start, and if I get it to start the rpms move up and down, it will die immediately when little bit of gas is given, jets are clean float hight is good too, fuel and air screw have been moved around and it will not start,
@@throttlefamily4655 yes I have cleaned the heys out I can seem to figure out why it’s not wanting to start it will turn on with choke on and then rev super high, with choke off bike will idle up and down and then shut off when throttle is applied
Like your videos. None of the typical Yayhoo hillbilly crap many other vloggers are creating. You do smart and relevant commentary about the pit bike work and changes. I would suggest doing a carb video using a true Mikuni VM22 vs the Nibbi.
Appreciate the content bro, y'all are the reason I got the 2020 Apollo rfz 125, but unfortunately I broken the plastic( rear) and Wonder if you have a cheap pair I could buy from you?
How did your get the throttle cap removed from the stock RFZ carb? Mine has a blue pin that send to keep it locked on. Can only twist it like 1/8thv turn. I'm swapping my stocker with the Mikuni knock-off tomorrow. I have a '21 RFZ 125 modded as a supermoto for indoor kart tracking! Thanks!
That is so weird ours doesn’t have a pin on it I just twist it and it comes off. That is Awsome super moto is so much fun. The mikuni is Awsome just make sure you clean out the jets on them as soon as you get it because sometimes they have shavings in them from the factory
@@throttlefamily4655 So I cleaned jets w/(wire brush) bristle, checked floats, air screw @ 1-3/4 turn out. Bike would only run w/choke on. I could only adjust idle w/choke on. Bike bogged at 1/4 throttle. Opened the carb & moved the needle to #2 slot (it was in the #4 originally). This time fuel POURED OUT steady stream out of the bowl when I turned the petcock ON. Must've taken it apart 12 times & checked floats. Still can't get it to stop. Trash the new carb & try another? Use it as a paperweight for my office desk? Maybe another brand?
@@throttlefamily4655 I just bought the NIBBI 26 this week. We've ahead & bought the 28 pack of mains & pilots just in case! You were right about the manifold - didn't work. Ordered the NIBBI bolt-on mani. Then the air breather didn't fit .. so I bought the aluminum extension pipe. Gonna fit it all up tomorrow. 🤞🏼
Oh yeah... The VM22 K.O. drain screw was threaded in at an angle (from the factory) that's why the fuel was pouring out. It was bypassing the screw! I sent that back & got my $32 refunded & put it towards the NIBBI.
@@coltonc8367 cool. I’m definitely getting one sometime in May. Need a inexpensive bike to get comfortable riding. Any constant issues u know about? I hear the carb is pretty bad from other commenters on other vids, but that’s it
I just put a brand new one of these carbs on and its sputtering and backfiring like crazy at full throttle, I gotta check the spark plug but have you had this problem?
If I’m not mistaken which I probably am but the stator will keep it from running if it’s bad. Sounds like it may need a little tweak on the carb. That’s my opinion.
It has to carb, too much fuel not enough could be the other way around,check stator last before checking the stater, check CDI spark plug, ignition coil
I had the same issue with the same carb from amazon end up taking it off had no idea how to fix, it would rev super high on first with no power and 2nd gear it would pop from to much fuel being injected im guessing
I want an got a BSE pit bike couple weeks ago after watching this channel thank you for the inspiration! It runs sick from stock it has japan carb not sure what brand ... sounds shitty once you have carb problems not looking forward to this :(
I have had lots of bikes in the past and never had carburetor problems like Alissa SSR I’ve never had any problems with hers even when we put her new carburetor on it ran perfectly
Also congratulations on your new pit bike I just got two carburetors that weren’t that good if I were to buy an authentic mikuni I would probably never have carb problems
@@throttlefamily4655 you would, however, have issues getting fuel from tank-to-inlet as a genuine Mikuni is a 5/16, the fuel line from the petcock is 3/16. An inline adapter eats up alot of space in such a minimalist area.
Just got the same carb, but I threw it on and the bike revved out when I kicked it over. Seems like the throttle cable is too short? Anyone else have the same issue or know how long the cable should be?

Sometimes the shifter lever on mine will randomly get stuck in gear. Won't travel up or down at all. Tapping the shaft with a hammer several towards the case a few times will pop it loose, but do you have any ideas what would cause that? 2018 Apollo RFZ 125

It's almost summer so it's ridding time.😅

Would you recommend the mikuni carb
Finally a vid...more riding.plz!!!.
Have u put thought or have replaced the chinese chain on ur yet?
Yes we have pro taper chains
Idk if it’s considered a pit bike, but I was thinking of getting the SSR189 before the summer starts. You have any idea how those hold up?
I haven’t herd to much about them I would imagine they are pretty good as well but idk how reliable they are
The 189s are pretty badass. Rippers for sure

Yes your main jet is either too big or too small for your elevation
They are easy to swap out
Shweet! Thanks man
I live in Pennsylvania, is there any chart or something to know which direction I need to go with jet sizing?
Aye I got the same Mikuni carb wen I go full throttle it Boggs can it be something to be with the stator ???

It sounds like you were getting air in between the carburetor and the motor definitely sounds like an air leak problem
can you make a video on how to replace the brake pads?
Hey i have a genuine Mikuni VM26-606 do u kno how i should adjust the jets for a 2021 ssr 125cc semi i cant figure it out

Have you ripped the 250 yet ?! Sick bike !
No I have not I bought it and immediately tore it down to the frame
Thanks it is definitely turning out to be something completely different from anyone else’s build.
could you fit 14 and 17 inch tires on the ssr 125
what plastics fit on thises?
