I just bought a SSR 125 for my son and I to just whip around and have a little fun, started looking on YouTube for reviews, things about the bike and bumped into y’all vids and I love them all 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 awesome vids fun and informative and I learn a lot so thanks guys I am subscribed now and I’m looking forward to future videos

I’ve owned 3 ssr and 1 Apollo rfz the Apollo is more comfortable and balanced especially for bigger riders (I’m 6, 3 260lbs) but the ssr is faster for some reason idk why but even my first ssr with bad rings burning oil like a 2 stroke was faster then the rfz

Also anyone who is scared of buying these Chinese bikes because of bad reviews doesn’t need to worry, they are very reliable and cheap to repair I beat the crap out of these bikes and have let several people learn manual on them and they never break just regular maintenance and loctite on bolts my first ssr was a 110 that sat under a tree for 4 years with no carb on it. It was seized and cylinder was full of pinestraw rust and mud dauber nest and after freeing it up with vinegar and marvel mystery oil even that clapped out bike ran great

Awesome upload...very nicely done! I just bought a used SSR125...didn't know until I got it home how hard it had been treated by the previous owner. It's a 2021 model but the back wheel was basically destroyed...bent axle bolt etc. Got a new wheel ordered. I'm so ready to get this bike back out to ride...so much fun :) Keep the uploads coming!

Location? Beautiful country.
I think this video covers 90% of what most buyers want to know.
Very well done.

I have an ssr125 with no gears and I just wheelies it about 30 minutes ago, the chain has fallen off twice in the middle of riding, one VERY big pro is the tank will last for like two full days of riding.

Nice video bro I’m trying to grind the pitty vids ❤️

I got an Apolo ADR-125 (basically the venom motorsports version of the rfz-125 and they branded it as a "venom Thunder") It's not a bad bike. More value per $ than the Japanese or North American bikes imo. I think for the riding I do the Apolo is the better choice because it's higher off the ground and I go through a lot of water and muck on the abandoned roads I ride.

I put an Apollo 125 into my sons SSR110. Now, his bike seems noticeably more powerfull than his brothers SSR 125. So glad we ditched the KTMs. These little china bikes have been 10 times more faithful.

Great comparo👍
Can you guys do more 14/17” bigger wheel comparisons in future. I have had my Coolster M-125 (14/17” Big wheel) for over 2yrs now with no issues other than the shitty 420 chain that has been upgraded for a heav duty RK 420. Carb and engine “powa” and reliability have been great.

Cool video.
My ‘personal’ problem is I really want a 14/17” wheel pit bike. Tracks are fine with small wheels, but actual trail riding through the woods swallows up those little 12/14” tires.
Is Thumpstar still in business?
Did you guys ever ride one of them?

[traviskridler]

I know this video is old but the apollo needs the carb jetted bad thats why it has no power… u can hear it breaking up

[macrino]

Good morning all! Seems like the ssr has more gitty up than the apollo from my perspective, sounds like the apollo needs a better carb or something? SSR wins in a competition for performance but the bigger tires on the Apollo make it easier to ride, Ive experienced some sketchy situations due to the small wheels but never the less fun as heck. Great videos guys!!
Ps love the hat bro! 🇺🇸

ssr's handling is better because its smaller (lower center of gravity) and is better for shorter drivers.

[AYCDmyhair]

So if you had to purchase one right now what would be the best pitbikes of this family rather the ssr 125 or apollo x18 or x19 what would it be?

[MerkMonarchX]

what is this front fork spacer everyone seems to talk about but cant find anywhere online??

[beneisses]

I just got an ssr 125 yesterday it’s great

[tylerfields]
