Thoughts on This Bike? Advice?
Hey everyone. I'm completely new to this. I came this bike:
https://www.powerrideoutlet.com/dirt...dirt-bike.html They call it a Honda clone. First, I've read a lot about the Apollo, but haven't found much on this bike. It could be because it's a re-branded bike that is called something different by other retailers. Does anyone have experience with this bike? Any good? Second, since they call it a Honda clone, it got me thinking about how much of a clone it really is. What is a clone about it? Engine, transmission, suspension, everything? And, if it's a clone, what about parts. Will parts from a Honda fit this bike? Any help much appreciated. |

230cc air cool, over head cam little more power, I think it states 15 or so hp. Nice ride. Quest is do you want Mx or enduro. Might be a zong motor . Nice

I have the Apollo and this one has the same motor that my apollo has. the motor is great but the shocks, and carb are not great and I ended up replacing both. Yeah not sure whats up with the exhaust it should connect to the front of the motor. I would go with the Apollo if it were me... I don't know how I would feel about buying a rebrand of a rebrand bike. I really am happy with the Apollo though...great trail bike/loaner
