hey peoples just need some info on sticker sets for the new 2008 water cooled orion Apollo 250cc. What sticker kit if any would fit the tank shrouds? Even if they don't exactly fit on they can be trimmed and i was wondering which would be the closest fit. here is a picture of it.

my dads lookng at getting one of these cause our kx needs a rebuild sorry this is of topic man do these bikes goo good mate fast,whats the shocks like,quality
 
I would hope your rm beat it in third, because your rm was no doubt 5 to 6 times as expensive.
 
Motoxxx - i don't know quality wise as i have not purchased it yet, i have been looking at them for the past 2 days and studying the photos and they seem to check out, quality looks good for a Chinese and its water cooled which will be good for the summer.

Sidney - of course a rm250 would beat this bike in 3rd, for gods sake its a 2 stroke and its a jap bike. A 125 2 stroke would beat this bike, when will u learn Sidney, don't you read forums and understand the difference between power and torque of a 2 stroke compared to a 4 stroke.
 
well for $1500 that is one hell of a cheap water cooled 250cc even if i does need some work to get it up to scratch. These aren't race bikes and no one expects much from them but its cheap fun and is definitely a better option over the G4 hummer, no offense to those that own one.

Can we please get back to topic!

What sticker kit if any will fit it / any kits that can be cut to fit?
 
I would steer clear of them, i have the 07 model, the front forks look identical to mine and they are shockingly soft (this is the one thing everybody complains about). There is literally 1.5 inch travel left when i sit on it. I am only 85kg. It is like riding a push bike, trust me it is not fun to ride off a trail/path.

Power is reasonable, has nothing down low, only a mid end surge. Will spin wheel through first few gears, which is fun as i like just fanging it sideways out of corners. Mine is aircooled, the new engine may be better.

They dont look well built, to me he whole front end looks squashed in close and the handle bars are very low. Will not be a pleasant ride.
