no IT WOULD BE FASTER DUMBY for 1 bc the ktm IS A 65cc and the apollo is a 125cc the onky reason the ktm won is bc 2 strokes have more acceleration than 4 strokes do but 4 strokes have a higher top speed if the apollo had a built and tuned up mikuni on it IT WOULD LEAVE THT KTM IN THE DUST.

I was thinking if anything the lower crank bearing was going which would cause slap in the piston rod.

@@brodyriekofsky844 That's actually great observation and I'm glad you brought that up just in case anybody else heard or noticed the same thing and is wondering why I was doing that. So what you observed was something called power shifting. Power shifting is where you do not let go of the throttle while shifting. During power shifting you'll quickly shift as fast as you can by pulling in the clutch and shifting the gear while at the same time never releasing the throttle. What it does is it, for a split second, allows the engine to free rev in between the gears so that when it does shift to the next gear it hits the next gear hard and gives it a slight boost as its engaging the next gear. Yes it will cause extra wear and tear on the clutch but If you're racing to the extreme level then it will give you an advantage compared to not power shifting.

This bike is a 2007 which I bought used. The typically asking price for these bikes is about $1,400 to $1,700 But this one was advertised to have a blown motor and was listed for $650. Anytime you buy a bike with a blown motor it's a huge gamble. You could come out on top if it's a simple fix or you could come out on bottom if you have to do a complete engine rebuild. In my case I came out on top as all it needed was a new spark plug and the fuel needed to be turned on.

Actually underdressed my man. I recently flipped one of them back and hit my knees pretty hard on the lime rock. My pants and jerseys did well and didn't tear whereas if I had regular clothes on they would have torn and I would have ruined a nice pair of jeans. Also the reason I say I'm under dressed is I'm going to be getting knee pads and elbow pads because my knee took a pretty good impact and never really thought about the pads until now. You can never have enough gear 👍

So you even up the riders weights . What’s the bikes weight on each that may be a determining factor . I’m sure that Harbor freight bike isn’t at the ktm’s weight . Plus if that 125 has been rung out like this all the time do a valve adjustment to give the 125 it’s full potential of power .
@FREEDOMSYNDICATEOFFICIAL
4 жыл бұрын
You have some valid points. As far as the weight of the bikes I'm not sure the difference there but this was more so of an example if someone were to line these two bikes up what to expect with different rider weights. Also the Apollo's valves are within spec as I do all my maintenance. Now it could have certainly benefited from a carb upgrade and exhaust.

It came partially assembled. You can order it fully assembled but it's extra $200. Therefore I was willing to assemble it myself being that I knew I could do it. I was required to assemble the handlebars front tire and rear tire. I have a video on the assembly if you're curious.

Ktm is 20kg lighter and it has about 6hp more. It cost about 5 times more lol. Not 5 times better though... I would take 5 apollos over 1 ktm any day of the year. And the best thing is most of the parts are propably made in china anyways.
