Apollo 250 Hummer

[SYMTEC23]

you will need to change the gearing and have 500 buks spare to fix some minor problems

Im new to this forum so can you inform us of the problems you refer to as I am thinking of buying one as a cheap ride. All you will find for a grand in jap stuff is already flogged out and nakkered anyway.

look for something like a late 80's early 90's klr 250 or something they should be aigght for what u want

support group

I dont moderate it anymore, but I created a support group for the hummer. I sold mine and then turned the moderating over to another guy. Here's the link for the group.

P.S. check your swingarm bushings and shock linkage bushings on a regular maintenance schedule!

[cass38a]

Of these I would get them in this order, first the Pitpro, second the DHZ then the AGB 29. But I dont like the idea of a ebay bike, check out the MSO range IMO.

 

[Divy]

yeah i agree with cass thats the order id go

but that bike in the last link has a 5 speed box has any one ridin it before a 5 speed would be sick if it was strong

 

[DUTCH]

thankx guys - So are some of the parts better/as good on the pit pro compared with the DHZ bike? or just better for the price difference? Seriously thinking about spending alittle (alot more) more for the MSO elite bike (nice)

can you guys check this out (for the kids to ride) its a Widowmaker Outlaw (pit pro) 125cc 4 stroke power plant,Adjustable Upside Down forks, 12" rear and 14" front wheels, Heavy duty twin spar frame,4 Speed all up gearbox - is it worth $1000 http://www.threeamigos.com.au/Outlaw.htm

and this Denonator plus (looks like a Atomik)125cc 4 stroke power plant
Adjustable Upside Down forks,12" rear and 14" front wheels,Heavy duty twin spar frame,Carbon Fibre graphics,Adjustable rear shock,Now with Electric Start! For $1000 http://www.threeamigos.com.au/Detonator+.htm worth the money compared to ebay?

 

[NinetySix]

i own a pitpro and i would take the DHZ over the pitpro... forget the hummers or any chinese bike that is 150cc or bigger

comes down to your budget really, if you wanna spend about 500-600, id go for a pitpro RR 125.... for about 800 i would get the DHZ 140, to get something thats a lot better you gotta spend around 2k on a MSO, mojo or terramoto

 

[DUTCH]

thanks ninetysix - divy - cass38a- all seems like good advise for us newbies, wanting to get the best for whatever our dollar.............hope this helps others in choosing there bikes - another question - the Denonator plus/ Widowmaker Outlaw from threeamigos are they on par with the ebay bikes that are for less $$ eg orion agb-29 and atomik (if not the same bike for less)

Good call cassa. If your budget is arounf the 1K mark then I would be checking out the MSO X7R or the MSO Pro if you can afford a little bit more. They beat all those other bikes hands down and you won't find better customer service anywhere IMO.

 

[NinetySix]

the mso x7r certainly does cost a lot more than a pitpro

 

[DUTCH]

yer three amigos i've good and bad about them? where did you get your bike from thumpy - I'm just across the spencer gulf from you.......Whyalla........


Hmm the more i look at MSO especially the elite l like.......so at this stage for me its the MSO elite (can i get road tyres for this beast as well) and for the kids the ebay pitbike !!!! hmmmm just need a few extra dollar my poor bank account........but alot of fun to come

 

[cass38a]

We all seem to agree on these bikes, all we need now is somebody to come in and carve us all up for not recomending a CRF50 Ha Ha Ha.

If you can strech your budget definetly go MSO and get the best you can afford, once you start to ride you WILL to go harder and handle better, upgrading shocks costs big $$$ over buying them and upgrading later. You do get what you pay for so the more you spend the better you will go.

 

[pascal125]

yeh, i agree with that order, i also agree with not getting direct from ebay, take a look & find their factory, while ur there u can a way better look & will probably find they are less, mi bike was like $750 on ebay & i went to the factory & got it for $620 & then saved $150 on postage, u need to see if it is ur size aswell, if when u hop on it u can just feel it is struggling like when u sit on one of the imported 50cc bikes then it tells u something

 

[DUTCH]

thanks guys...........

umm i'm a tallish guy 33yo (and crusty) weight around 94kg - how will my size/type go on a MSO elite bike - or am i too fat for it? will it bog down? i know there is a prob with the kids getting a orion agb-29 or a pitpro bike from ebay but for me how will this go?

How do the Orion 140 pitbike go?

[DUTCH]

THanx guys for the info/help...............

just wondering how a MSO elite would go - i'm 33yo (and crusty) about 96kg - will i bog it down ?

still considering the pitpro off ebay for the kids and maybe this (alittle more expensive- not sure if its worth it)

[DUTCH]

hmm my last post doesnt seemed to have work - i'll try again?

How will a MSO elite go for a 33yo tallish (and crusty) weight about 96kg will it blog down ?

 

[cass38a]

No probs, I am a 35 year old worn out can't ride for sh t old man, and own a MSO X7r and its heaps good. The elite will be sweet

 

[DUTCH]

wow these must be awsome little bike - how about comfort you fit nicely, and control, must be able to throw these things around abit? also i just like to go for long rides, kick it up here and there, nothing major just a good days ride........will this be any prob for the little beast!!!

 

[DUTCH]

cass38 wot kind of punishment you put you bike through? do any major jumps with your beast?
