Anyone use a nibbi carburetor on a apollo db36 250cc delux

madwolfcody · 04-12-2019, 10:50 PM

I've been looking at carburetors and I was wondering if anyone has used the nibbi carburetors on Amazon

Not much info
Also unless you know how to really tune it won’t do much more for you etc

I think Nibbi has many carb models. They should be Chinese carbs of better finish.

I am also looking into installing one of these in my Apollo RX250. Has anyone installed one in their bike yet? I currently have the Mikuni VM26 installed. The bike runs good, but was wondering if I would notice any improvements with the Nibbi? Here is the model I am looking at.

Here are the Adapters I found.

I am waiting for a Nibbi PE30 to arrive for my Hawk. Nibbi has a very good reputation.

being a true 30mm smooth bore without a choke plate, it is capable of flowing more air than the PZ30/VM26 venturi bore carbs, so it is going to be able to flow more air, and create less turbulence. So the potential for more power is there.

OOOH! Please let us know. I am all for making more power.

Dan, which adapter did you go with?

Megadan · 06-07-2019, 07:03 PM

I have an adapter for the cqr250 i got from taobao, but it probably wont work with the db36 because of the frame. The regular angled adapters might work better for those.

Douglass · 06-07-2019, 07:49 PM

I'll wait for you to give some feed back about the carb and fitment. I will most likely buy it, but since you already purchased one I'll wait your impressions first.

Megadan · 06-07-2019, 08:00 PM

Well, with my ported head it might skew things a bit. I already know I am outflowing the pz30 at high rpm.

I have been trying for a few days now to fit the 30mm Nibbi carb on the db36 Deluxe...it does not seem to be fitting at all, definitely does not fit the stock boot for the air filter box and is too big to fit with the stock intake manifold. I purchased a nibbi intake but it does not angle in the right direction to properly fit this carb, if anyone has done this successfully what did you do? I have already removed the filter box and plan on putting a regular filter since the box is so big. If there was a flexible manifold pipe/hose I think I might be able to make it fit. Has anyone done this yet?

I was just going to order all the adapters that megadan has ordered. There is a few of them. Look thru all his posts he has them listed. They are not that expensive and it beats trying to guess which one. Order all at once saves alot of time shipping wise. Now nippi does have a few different ones on amazon I looked at them this weekend. Good luck.

Most of the ones I have used were for a Hawk and may not work on the Apollo due to how different the frames are. People with this bike would be the best source for info on parts.

I just recently installed the Nibbi 30mm flat slide carb on the Apollo Rfz Db-36 250. It was a complete pain in the ass, none of the adapters were the one I needed. So I had to custom fab and/ or modify adaptors. It barely fits, have to remove the airbox and tank and everything to get it in there, but let me tell you. ITS A WHOLE DIFFERENT ANIMAL!! completely surprized and somewhat impressed with the machine now. I usually ride a built 98 RM250 that's just plain NASTY but this carb actually made this thing move! ITS STILL HEAVY, AWKWARD, AND A 4 ATROKE. but all in all I'd say yes to anyone looking to almost double their output on the apollo 250
