Calling From Canada

Had a dirt bike as a kid and loved it!

I am looking at a Tao Tao 125 dirt bike for my son, and an Apollo 250 for myself.

Looking for any advice or suggestions... even which is the best sub-forum to post in/follow.

I am in Ottawa, Ontario.

Thanks,
Ross

hello!

the pure dirt forum will give you tons of info on the Apollo bikes.

I have the Apollo 250 and it is a pretty awesome machine just be prepared to do some work to fine tune it. I added a mikuni carb and turbo core II exhaust and made a big difference.
