04-25-2010, 01:46 PMHi I'm new here and wanted to show this bike thats now being sold in Sweden. The cost is around 1300 Euros. I bought one today, and will test the machine tommorow. There isn't much info out on the net for this bike, but I think the quality has improved the last year or so. ( nice forum guys)

Waiting impatiently for the report!
It's hard to see much from the picture. Looks like a nice frame!

Looks like an Apollo, if I am not mistaken...

04-26-2010, 02:08 AMIts marketed under the name Orion, and in some countries Apollo. But both use the AGB signature for model type ( at least what I'v read) and they use Zongshen's engine. ( water cooled) To date there are about 4 different names for the same machine, it just happens to be which country you live in. Same frame and engine type.
I have a nice sand pit near here with plenty of trails and jumps. I'll run around there after work and shake things out a bit. ( see what comes loose first...lol)

04-26-2010, 04:13 PMOK I took it easy as the engine isn't broke in yet. It starves at mid range RPM, and I'm not sure of the choke position on the carb, ( a black horisontal lever that you press down or up) but when I run with the lever in the down position it runs fine... but high RPM at idle.... and I think this is full choke....
The carb looks like a 30MM Mikuni ( not sure) but no indication as to choke position on the lever. And no hand book for referance...
I assum most of the Chinese 250s run the same carb, so maybe someone here knows a little on this subject.

On the XTR250 it's up to choke, down to open!

04-27-2010, 07:36 AMThanks Felix for the confermation. I screwed around last night and came to that conclution. I ran some hours in the gravel pit, and the only thing I could find that might not hold up is the fuel lines. They are vary hard plastic, and crack easy. As for shocks, waaaay to hard, ( at least the back) its set at mid point adjustment, so I'll drop it a bit. The bike runs good, probably tops out at 65 with the ratio it has. Handling is a bit squirley due to short wheel base, but should dampen down somewhat when I adjust the shocks. All in all it feels good, and time will tell as to durability.

04-28-2010, 01:51 PMRan it for 2 hours today over hard ground and sand. The bolts that hold the brake to the front shock backed out a bit with vibration, but otherwise it ran great. Put in the air several times to see the balance, and it will nose over nicely after a jump. The chain should be looked at after a few miles, as it will loosen up some. There is no information as to break in time for the engine, but I figure 2 hundred miles or so should grind things in OK

They import that bike in Finland too, 1295€ here. It certainly looks interesting, good luck with the bike and have fun!
