I have 2 total 125cc dirt bikes, very similar to what you have; Ive found they need alot of warm up time when you run 87 octane, but step up to 91 and put in some magic marvel mystery oil and you should with that new carb (vm 26 mikuni knock off) be into much more responsive riding! Yes fresh 91 gas and the carb will get things in order!
Thanks so much John. I’m excited for the bike. I’m debating making another video on it with the upgraded carb, but it seemed like almost nobody watched this video.
Thank you Artie. I really wish I would have been able to get the adjustment screw to budge on the stock carb, but I know the aftermarket one will have full adjustment and get this bike dialed in. I hope you have a great weekend.
Thats a nice little bike Alex. It looks like a Mikuni style carb. The Mikuni carbs are fully adjustable and very reliable. That one sounds to have some idle circuit issues. Is that the factory air cleaner? You will have some fun with that on the trails! Yes i think this is some great content as well.👍🇺🇸 Roger
I agree. I’m pretty sure it’s an idle circuit issue. At half to full throttle it runs great. I have another Makuni carb on the way that is adjustable and a better filter. This is the one that comes on the bike and is terrible. Let’s all kinds of dirt through it. I’m super excited to get some parts on the bike and have some fun.
Nice bike bud the Chinese carbs are not very good but Amazon has some cheap ones that work great on that bike have fun on it I have a 250 I have a blast on
I’m looking forward to getting it running really well and having some fun on it. It’s crazy the seller rode it a couple times and then just left it to sit for over a year.
Just bought this same exact bike trying to fix it up but the kick start seems to be stuck and i put it into gear still nothing. Brand new spark plug as well doubt that can be an issue
Quick question, i got the same bike i bought off this guy. Finally got it running but when it idles the exhaust starts to glow red hot… any advice or tips on how to fix this? Im not sure how to tune the carb since i was told that was the issue. The carb is an aftermarket amazon carb but its brand new so im not sure why its doing thid
i have the apollo 125cc bought it a couple days ago whenever i start the bike it starts to vibrate the whole bike like crazy no idea why need some help.
Tighten every bolt. Maybe an engine mount is loose. Mine had lots of loose bolts cuz the Chinese builders don't have the same quality control as the Japanese builders

Never run 87 on any motorcycle
You should try recreational gas without etanol I used on my 750 bikes and run real good.
Thank u
That is a cool bike 🏍 Alex hopefully that carb can be dialed in some more look forward to the next video 🔧🤘

@@freedommowers420 well I enjoyed it . If u decide to make another video I look forward to watching 👀 #support
That's a nice bike Alex. It should be acr with a new carb. Good job getting it running!

very nice purchase, would love to get something like that.

This is going to help me a lot, I have the EXACT same bike, Same color and everything
Great video! I’ve been wanting one of these for a little while, so this is a very helpful video! Definitely post more on it!

Fully watching my buddy ✌️
Thank you very much! The kind words mean a lot.
I think you got a good deal there bud. Cheers
Thank you. Yea I’m excited to have a bike to enjoy. Seems to have almost no hours on it. Just was neglected.
where do you buy your parts from?
There was probably still trash in the tank & lines.
Cool bike
What carb should I buy to replace this
Where can I find a brake pedal for one of these
Did the new carb fix the problems, my Apollo 125 is having the same problems
I ended up having to rejet the new carb one size up on both the main and idle.
Mine wouldn't start for weeks.. Because; the clutch has to be out to kick. FML
Are you able to put crf clutch levers and pegs on a Apollo ?
I’m honestly not sure.
Do you know what size the stock chain is? I think its a 428 but I don't know how many links, thanks!
I’m honestly not sure what size it is on this bike.
Will Honda oem parts fit on these Chinese pit bikes? Such as exhausts, forks , shocks, handle bars? And plastics?
Do you know if Honda clutch levers and pegs will fit on Apollo ?
The plastic will fit form a crf
Live to ride ride to live 😎👍
That’s right!!! I’m ready to ride. Looking forward to getting it dialed in and having some fun.
@@freedommowers420 just be careful with this machine ALEX👍😎
