Making the Apollo 250rx street legal

I do not know your abilities ,but assuming you are not an electrical guy there are kits available to add those features to atv' to make them street legal .If you are electrically handy ( why would you ask the question if you were ?) ,you will need some wire ,a signal switch ,turn signal assemblies ,a fuse holder and fuse ,and a flasher unit or a turn signal relay .You can purchase a universal tailight assembly ,or buy a fender with one built in like a competition enduro bike .You probably don't have a brake light switch so normally you would need one for both the front and rear wheels as well .The mirror is also available as a universal unit including the mount .You have not asked about a headlight ,once again there is a universal kit available ,I have been happy with the polisport plastics kits for the money but there are certainly other options available to you .
If you really like getting dirty ,you might try a motorcycle salvage yard ,and if that is not available your local Craigslist for used parts .
Another thing not mentioned is a horn .

The wiring isn't gonna be the problem, my main concern is to get stuff that will work for my bike and honestly I'm trying to stay around 50$ on parts total. I know what I'm doing. If I'm not mistaken the Apollo is prewired for the tail light

From what I've seen on our Apollo's from having them apart and together so many times, I haven't seen any wiring for head or tail lights on them. You would have to purchase a wiring harness for that. Easiest way to do that is what Bruce's mentioned about a universal tail light and wire it yourself. The taillights can be had on ebay for $10. You can use the one switch on the front brake for a brake light and have to get another switch for the foot. Turn signals would be a whole other thing. You would have to get the switch and the lights. Best way to wire all them is to get a fused distribution block so you only have one wire coming from the battery then have it split to all your lighting from the block. Best of luck with getting it road legal, I was considering it but didn't want the hassle of getting it titled and doing all the lights. Here in West Virginia we can ride on the shoulder or as close as we can get to the side of the road if there isn't a shoulder for 10 miles on a lined road, except interstate highways. Most roads where I live are un lined or dirt and we can ride ATV, sidexside and dirtbikes all day on them without making the bikes street legal.
