Hi from the Netherlands - Orion Apollo RX 250, with some mods - - Page 2

Well, although I am really happy with the looks and build quality of the Apollo, I have decided to whack the bike up a bit.

Yes... The Zongshen 2 valver has to go and it's going to replaced with this thing:

Yep, I have to give some TLC to this engine, as it needs a new cam chain and some new gaskets here and there...

I always like the view with an engine on my workbench!

But first this never ending story has to be fixed (clutch), but hey... it keeps me of the street hahaha

And then this bike will be stripped to the bone, guess it will be a true upgrade for my little Chinese friend

What engine did you end up putting in it? I don't recognize it from the single picture?

What was the reasoning for wanting to put a new engine in it?

What lithium battery did you buy?
