Awesome brother! Thank you so much for the great feedback! I put a lot of effort into these videos so that way it can be a great demonstration for those who care to watch.

I just bought my son a RFZ 125cc manual pit bike. It’s a great starter bike for young kids. But I keep watching videos on UA-cam and everyone is talking about the Chinese bikes. Ain’t Honda and Suzuki from China? I like that these bikes are affordable and we’re not paying for the name brands!
Honda and Suzuki are from Japan and are known to be very, very reliable, due to years of engineering. The Apollo pit bikes are rather new and are still working out the kinks. But for the most part they are great bikes! 👍
Great tutorial bro! Either you studied the manual good before recording or you've put one together before! Lol and somebody was sho nuff blowing you up on messenger! Lollol had me checking my phone lol
😆😆😆 Yeah my phone always seems to blow up when I'm recording, It never fails! 🤦🏼♂️ Definitely never put one together but I had a pretty good idea from working on bikes through the years and after glancing at the manual I pretty much had it down at that point 👍
Awesome I hear lots of bad things about these Chinese knock off but I said owell. I just ordered my wife a trailmaster xrs 300 off road go cart last week I have not recieved it yet, I ordered it for $3200 should get it next week sometime I hope. My wife does not like atv so I figured when we go to the desert this off road buggy would work best for her and being a 2 seater it has room for my 5 year old son. Sorry about long story lol thanks for sharing with us it's great to put a face with the voice lol have great day
That's cool bro! The Chinese machines are definitely not going to hold up compared to the Japanese, Austria, and US/Canadian models but they are definitely better than they were 15 years ago! As far as the partial face reveal... That's for all my loyal subscribers like yourself to finally get a glimpse of the face behind the helmet! 😂
@@brianj123458 as far as breaking in your new 4-stroke, I made a video on this, it was one of my first videos and the title is "How to break in a new Yamaha Raptor" and it goes over the steps I took to break in the new four-stroke which is recommended by Yamaha. After I broke it in I did a compression test and the engine was on the stronger side of the spectrum. Perhaps it was based on the way I broke it in or maybe it was just shear luck 🤷🏼♂️ It's a lot to explain because there are several different phases but I'll do my best to explain in short... For the first ten hours don't go wide open throttle unless it's for 3-4 second burst and do not hold the engine RPMs at a constant speed. Constantly accelerate and decelerate. After ten hours you can go wide open throttle for as long as you wish!! 😂😂🤘 Get a video of it for us bro! And thanks for being such a huge supporter brother!
Thank you! Glad I was able to help! If you don't grease the axles on the front and rear then it just makes it much more difficult to slide the axle bolt out later on when you have to replace an inner tube or sprockets.
Hello, would this bike be good for a 14 year old? I want to get matching bikes, I am 5'5, and he is 5'7, would this bike be a good size for us? How well has the bike held up? Thanks.
Hey I bought this exact same bike when it was brand new in 2017. I havent ran it since 2019 so 3 years I tried running it the other day and it would start and then it should shut down take 20 cranks to get started and then shut back down in 1-2 min. Do you have any clue what the problem maybe?
Hey umm @QUADNATION 929 I’m 11 and 5ft tall and I was wondering if this bike would be too big or small for me? Can u please answer my question if you can
Just buy a Mikuni and be done with it. The factory carbs are all trash. 50 - 60 bucks and you've got the best you can throw on it IMHO. Hope this helps
Hey quadnation hope your staying safe and well in quarantine. I had a question regarding the differences between the Apollo 125cc DB007 and your dirt bike. What differences do they have? Are they the same? Thank you!
I apologize for not seeing this earlier but to answer your question I'm actually really not sure. I've compared the models online before and it just seems that the aesthetics are really the only difference.
Hey man how do you find the rear suspension? I just bought this bike used, I've loosened up the rear shock springs but still find it to be very stiff, I have minimal sag and it doesnt seem to rebound very fast either
@@noahchristensen1630 got it for $600 in great condition. I figured out why my suspension had no sag, the previous owner must've not put any grease on the bottom bolt holding the rear shock in place and the bearings were rusted. A good cleaning and applying grease and it actually feel like a dirt bike now. I just bought a vm22 26mm mikuni clone carb. Heard they wake this bike up pretty well
@@gamerbot101 I done own one I will buy one once people start hiring again and have some money but I have heard that the carburetor you got really does wake them up and stops idle problems so yeah let me know if the carburetor you put on really does make a difference
That is one of my biggest complaints of this bike is the fact that it's a very stiff ride and the shock should be much softer and a seat should be softer as well.
Have you built it yet? You're going to need socket wrenches and Allen wrenches for the most part. As far as the exact size of the sockets I believe I mentioned it in the video but if not for the most part you're going to be needing 10 mm and 12 mm and the larger nuts on the hubs will be 14 to 17 mm. I hope this helps.
Question... I have an x18 coming in for my nephew and I was wondering what size the biggest nut and bolt is on the bike assembly and whether it is metric or standard
I'm so sorry that I didn't respond until now I miss this earlier but I'm sure you've already figured it out either way I think the largest was a 22 mm.
Thank you I appreciate that! I don't know if there are really any differences to be quite honest other than I believe the 007 comes in wheel sizes 14 and 17 where the X18 is an 18in wheel but other than that I'm not sure if there's any other differences. Sorry I couldn't help further.
Actually I was Wrong, they both have 17 and 14 inch tires.. so I have no idea what the differences is between them. On PowerSportsMax.com the x18 is more expensive. So who knows 🤷🏼♂️
Funny you have a Honda CRF in the background cause I have been browsing around for a man toy this past week in the price range of up to $ 1500 around and have been seeing some Honda CRF 100's for sale for around$1200-1300 Used of course. But I am a full grown adult male weighing around 190 - 195 pounds and not sure how well the CRF 100 would ride with me on it. Now I see this Chinese bike in a 125 brand new for less than a used CRF 100 and I'm wondering which I should get ?? The smaller used Honda for the better quality or the new Apollo 125 even though they probably have to be maintained a lot more often and who knows what other issues they might have ? Help me decide please lol. Just looking for something cool to putt around my 40 acres of property here in NC.
Haha I understand. So believe it or not the CRF 100 will be more powerful and faster than the Apollo 125. Also the Honda will hold up longer long term. If you search Facebook marketplace for a few weeks you should be able to find a CRF100 in that price range or even less. If you're able to find a CRF-150 for a decent price I would definitely jump on that because that bike will have a large power difference over the 100. Keep in touch and let me know what you end up with.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL Update, since I posted this I also came across a 97' Honda XR 200R asking price $1600 or best offer. I got my eyes on that now too lol.

@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL you have to dump out the oil that comes in the engine during shipping right away. The stuff that is inside the engine during shipping is pretty much "vegetable" oil, and it could cause problems in the future. There are so many videos online of people who own Chinese bikes and say that they're terrible bikes, but I'm absolutely sure that the one thing all those reviews have in common is that they forgot to dump out the oil immediately and put some fresh 10W-40 in the engine before break-in. Every single online dealership recommends that.
It's recommended that you use a multi-purpose grease because it remains on the axle for much longer than a solution like WD-40 which once it is exposed to heat it'll start vaporizing and eventually it'll be down to just metal and metal again. So I would advise against using anything other than the grease.

QUADNATION 929 I’m putting together mine and I’m having an issue getting the front end in the air to put the front tire on. Bike slipped off the stand and could have been bad. I’m completely new to this. Any help here? Should I secure the rear shock with the bolt first?
QUADNATION 929 never mind I got it sorted making it easier to secure the rear shock and then tilting it back partly resting on the back tire. These Apollo bikes don’t rest right on a standard stand. The kick stand gets in the way the small pin piece if you know what I mean.
@@trittany2882 yes I know exactly what you mean, the pin and the rear brake lever. I moved the stand around a few times and then found a balance point and a spot where it wasn't putting pressure on the pin.
I purchased it in 2019 at www.powersportsmax.com however they no longer offer the Apollo model and since then the Apollo has become much more popular and is now approximately $1200.
You do know that there sealed bearings in front no grease. Plus grease will collect dirt and wear it out prematurely! Just to let you know for future reference.

It's tough to say because anytime I'm filming a project I'm always much slower but if I wasn't filming I would have to say I could have completed it within 2 hours.
Weird there is no shields on the front hub for the spacers.
How do I get all my cables to go through those forks they are all off to the side
How do you expect it to stay together during shipping just put a wrench under there and unscrew it
It was a pain though lol
My buddy just got one he’s a new rider had to show him how to start it and ride the thing lol 😂
That's awesome for you to show him!
Cool I can't wait
🤘🤘🤘
Does it require a mixture?
No it is a 4-stroke engine so it takes straight gas only.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL thanks, also would you say a 125cc would be a good enough bike for my 5 ft son?
Where was the axle located? I can't find mine.
Your supposed to use the same bolt that was used to attach it to the metal crate
I honestly can't remember I'll have to view this video again to find out lol...
Get lock tight and get a bottle of spray UV and rust protecting gloss
Would this be good for a 15 year old ?
Yes, but get the x18. It comes taller with bigger wheels.
Does anyone know the difference between the Apollo RFZ X-15, X-18, and 007?
I'm not sure about the difference between the 007 but the X15 is the small wheel model in the X18 is the big wheel model.
Where did you get the Apollo bike from?
I purchased it online at www.powersportsmax.com
Is it like legit sorry I just need to make sure
Like a legit website?
Did you rent the dirtbike?
Put it up on a car jack if you have it just make sure it don't flip over
Hey what is that stand thing called I might need one
That's a dirt bike stand and you can pressure them from most online motorcycle websites.
Did the tools come with the bike ?
No
Where did u buy it from?
I purchased it online at www.powersportsmax.com
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL damn they don't ship to the U.k
@@Mo-xw2of oh no man! That really sucks!! 😠 Try searching for another dealer that ships to the UK.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL I found a
Fx-125cc pit bike 2020 Version 32 inch seat height for only £596 delivery included so I may go with that instead. What seat hight is the apollo, I'm 6ft and did not want a pit bike too small. FOR ANYONE IN THE UK WHO'S TRYING TO FIND A PIT BIKE FOR UNDER £600 THE ONE I'M TALKING ABOUT IS minioffroad.co.uk/products/fx-125cc-pit-bike-dirt-bike-2020-version?variant=32358727942204¤cy=GBP&gclid=CjwKCAjwqML6BRAHEiwAdquMnacS0-EwMca3JodejBEj3myWD5d48RkTsln_EYALVmuOzcQkBsG_iBoCbdQQAvD_BwE
Where did u buy it is that the adult size
I purchased mine online at www.powersportsmax.com and this one is the small wheel model the big wheel model for adults is X18.
I ordered the same bike but they didn’t send my front axle so does anyone know the size before I order an aftermarket axle
I'm not sure of the actual size but if you go to www.powersportsmax.com I believe they have just about every part for that bike. Sorry I wasn't able to help more.
Cool bike I need to save for that bike
You won't regret it!
They have this break grease too that you can squirt in
Do you really need to grease it or no
The bearings are sealed however I do it just to keep the bolt from seizing inside as greasing it allows it to slide in and out with ease.
Do you have the link so i could get one
I purchased it online at www.powersportsmax.com
Does it have a kickstand?
Yes, a solid one too!
Easy to put together
It was a cake walk! 😁🎂🎂🎂
I’m 5’0 would I be able to ride it comfortable?
Where you can but those direct from the factory without having to go with a reseller
I'm really not sure. Sorry I was unable to help.
Helpful video!
Thanks brother! Glad I was able to help 👍
QUADNATION 929 I’m putting together mine and I’m having an issue getting the front end in the air to put the front tire on. Bike slipped off the stand and could have been bad. I’m completely new to this. Any help here? Should I secure the rear shock with the bolt first?
QUADNATION 929 never mind I got it sorted making it easier to secure the rear shock and then tilting it back partly resting on the back tire. These Apollo bikes don’t rest right on a standard stand. The kick stand gets in the way the small pin piece if you know what I mean.
@@trittany2882 yes I know exactly what you mean, the pin and the rear brake lever. I moved the stand around a few times and then found a balance point and a spot where it wasn't putting pressure on the pin.
@@trittany2882 glad you were able to get it worked out. Have fun riding and be safe! 👍
maybe you know, how many volts does it have? thx
What website can i get one of these on? Please someone tell me
Get on google
www.powersportsmax.com
What type of oil and gas does it take ?
87-93 octane for fuel and 10W-40 for oil.
How do I pop my seat off?
Usually I go that way keychain leap on it that you twist and then pull the seat back.
how long did this take you?
About 6 hours but a lot of that was due to filming. But I could probably get it done in 3 hours max.
Do you mind telling where you got it for 600$ pls
I purchased it in 2019 at www.powersportsmax.com however they no longer offer the Apollo model and since then the Apollo has become much more popular and is now approximately $1200.
@@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL they do still offer Apollo. They have the Apollo RFZ20 Max 125cc. And they sell Apollo parts
What is the yellow tag for on the bike
I believe it was a warning label but I can't even remember at this point lol
We’re did you buy it?
I purchased it online at www.powersportsmax.com
Did you loctite any bolts
I did at a later time. Everything holding up well.
You do know that there sealed bearings in front no grease. Plus grease will collect dirt and wear it out prematurely! Just to let you know for future reference.
Yes that's a very good point but I still grease the bolts so that the bolt slides in and out with ease.
Can I put loctite and grease on the screws?
You'll want to grease your bushings and loctite your bolts.
QUADNATION 929 ok thank you👍🏽
Fender handlebars and front tire and front brake
They even sell front fork oil
