    Don't waste your money. Just use that money and buy a real bike off facebook marketplace. You can get a good 85cc big wheel two stroke. The apollos and tao taos are junk. Too many problems, plus the engine WILL blow. They will be fine for maybe a month or two. Just buy an older 85-125cc dirtbike. Preferably a two stroke since they are easier and cheaper to rebuild. Hope this helps.

    Well damn. Too late. Tell him to stay on top of the oil changes, and to replace air and fuel filters often. Tell him to check and tighten every nut and bolt on the bike. I bought 2 apollos for work. I do stormwater and sewer inspections for a few cities and counties, and my work has me going into quarrys, GAPower utility roads, and washed-out/overgrown easements. Those apollos barely lasted 3 months. No hard riding, just riding from point to point. I purchased a yz250 2 months after the engines blew. I haven't had issues with the yz250, and I ride it very hard.

    That was just part of my daily window shopping :rofl:
    I do want a "camp" bike, but it's nowhere in sight

    CVS Pharmacy closing for lunch is ridiculous. Second time visiting and they are closed. Take lunch in shifts like the rest of us. Geez!!!

    That's the BW :D. It came in 200 and 350cc.....and an 80cc 2 stroke if I'm not mistaken. The Fat Cat was Honda's version. I think it may have only come in 200cc

    From AlabamaWX

    COOL MORNING: Here are some temperatures just before sunrise across Alabama…

    Oneonta 48
    Cullman 50
    Remlap 50
    Heflin 50
    Gadsden 51
    Pell City 52
    Anniston 53
    Decatur 53
    Good Hope 53
    Huntsville 54
    Muscle Shoals 54
    Bessemer 54
    Birmingham 55
    Tuscaloosa 58
    Montgomery 62
    Mobile 67

    A very dry airmass now covers Alabama, and we are forecasting sunny warm days and clear pleasant nights through Friday. The high today will be in the low 80s, followed by mid 80s tomorrow. Heat levels inch up a bit Thursday and Friday with highs in the 84-87 degree range… but humidity levels will remain relatively low.

    THE WEEKEND AND NEXT WEEK: The dry pattern will persist for much of the state. The weekend will be warm and dry with highs in the 80s, and most of next week will remain rain-free as well. For those of you involved with agriculture or contraction that need a good, long dry spell, this is your chance. Highs next week will be in the upper 80s on most days, a little above average for mid-September in Alabama. See the daily Weather Briefing video for maps, graphics, and more details.

    TROPICS: NHC continue to monitor two tropical waves in the Atlantic, both with a low chance of development over the next five days. The lead wave in the Central Atlantic could see a higher chance of development in 5-8 days as it will be near the Leeward Islands and Puerto Rico then; too early to know if it will be an issue for the U.S. coastline, but global models suggest a northward turn before reaching North America.

    [​IMG]

    ON THIS DATE IN 1988: Hurricane Gilbert smashed into the Cayman Islands, and as it headed for the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico it strengthened into a monster hurricane, packing winds of 175 mph. The barometric pressure at the center of Gilbert reached 888 mb, a record for any hurricane in the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, or the Atlantic Ocean until Hurricane Wilma in 2005. Gilbert covered much of the Gulf of Mexico, producing rain as far away as the Florida Keys.

    ON THIS DATE IN 2008: Hurricane Ike made landfall as a Category 2 storm near Galveston. Due to its immense size, Ike caused devastation from the Louisiana coastline all the way to the Kenedy County region near Corpus Christi

    These weather posts are awesome. I’ve got to plant some grass soon before it starts cooling off much more.
