New Kentucky Guy.....

Hi guys, I am just a good ole' boy from eastern Kentucky interested in buying a 250 Apollo to go dirt riding with my pals. I joined this forum to find out how these bikes are as far as reliability, fit and finish, and ease of maintenance. I am pretty mechanically inclined and do most of the work on my other bikes so turning a few wrenches is no problem. Not looking for a real trailblazer reliability is better than speed for me. Any tips or problems for this bike I would be interested in hearing. Thanks for having me and I hope to learn a lot from all of you........

These bikes are tough.

Like any motorcycle, it will do you right, as long as you keep an eye on it.
