X-PRO Templar X 250cc 6 Speed Dirt Bike with Zongshen Engine Pit Bike Gas Dirt Bikes Adult Pitbike, Big 21"/18" Wheels! (Red)

Only have about 50 miles on it so far, so this may not be a through review but I’ll do my best. It arrives mostly put together, anyone with a garage and mechanical skills shouldn’t have much of a problem. LOCKTITE EVERYTHING! The frame ( which looks to be a license built KTM circa 2014), swingarm and suspension are all of dare I say Japanese level quality. The engine although no powerhouse seems to be a well built 6 speed interpretation of a CRF 230 motor. Tires are beefy but not suited well for road use, I had them balanced and they’re acceptable. Suspension is quite good for a cheap bike, the adjustment actually makes noticeable differences and while I don’t think I’d take it on a motocross track it does quite well in the mountain trails I’ve had it on so far. Watch out for fuel line routing, mine was kinked and routed touching the engine in a few places. Once I figured that out it fired right up! BEFORE YOU FULLY ASSEMBLE- Adjust the valves (0.002 intake and exhaust) take out the carb and open it up, install a larger 42 idle jet and go way up on the main. I went to a 125 and it’s still not enough, the air screw is still turned almost all the way in, I’ll be going up to a 135 tomorrow. Even the small jet increase made a noticeable difference in power and throttle response and this is all way easier to do with the tank off and exhaust off too. Overall I’m extremely happy with this and I don’t understand how they can sell a bike this fantastic for this cheap. Don’t expect a screaming 250r, I’d put it most closely to a a klr 230 or crf 230 with far better suspension. Also be aware it is pretty tall, anyone under 5’6” won’t be flat footing.

I watched many YouTube videos before the arrival of my bike, just to get an idea of what to expect. Prior to this purchase I looked at the popular bikes, so when this purchase showed, I am pleasantly supprised.I'm a mechanic by trade, so setup was simple. There is no setup manual. There is a video with no sound. It's helpful. I watched many private setup videos, and noted complaints some had with their low cost bikes. I think the makers of the Templar addressed many of those issues with this bike.I didn't find one bolt loose. I am impressed with the initial quality and performance. Though I have only rode a couple of miles, the engine is smooth and peppy, sounds great to.Really the only issue I have encountered was the front fender was to long on the back side and contacted the exhaust pipe. A little trim job and you would never know.Everything others complained about on the 5 speed bikes has been corrected with this 6 speed Templar.Time will tell, but I am quite pleased so far. If you are considering a bike like this, 6 speeds and a counterbalanced engine are a must. Haven't even tried adjusting the adjustable suspension, feels pretty good now.After a few rides I must say I'm impressed. Very good acceleration! Much better than reports on YouTube. Engine running smooth and there is power at 40mph to climb grades in 6th gear. The only issue I have is the owners manual does not list this bike specifically. Not a huge problem..I'm glad I didn't spend 3x the money for a Honda, my use is not that demanding. I will update in a few months if able.Alright, 6 months later, ran into an issue with the idle, and a lot of rapid backfire. I inspected the carb and it wasn't serviceable without some work, so I ordered a 30mm carb, which didn't help at all. I contacted XPRO and they promptly sent me a new carb, with screws, so it's adjustable.The carb helped some, but idle was still high. I started messing with jets and found the right combination.Came with 120 main and 40 idle jets.Changed to 125 main and 55 idle jet and idle went from 3k to 1500. Power is AWSOME, getting a little over 50 mph. Couldn't ask for more.Take a chance, my issues my make it easy for you!Happy camper!!!

Not what I expected. It’s actually better. Manufacture could do better on plastic. The only thing I have is the carburetor runs to lean and can’t be adjusted. But I knew that already. Max pro pays attention to reviews. They sent me a new adjustable carburetor. Thank you MaxPro!

Willl is not like crazy fast but for that price is pretty nice I love my bike

I bought 2 years ago have o er 4000 miles on bike and not babies at all I smash on this thing and it lives it you won't be disappointed

Buy it! They’re great for cruising around on and built well. X pro customer support is awesome. You won’t win any moto x with it though but very fun! Watch a lot of reviews on google search they really show you what you’re going to buy.

Everything went well. The bike is a very good bike however my only complaint is it's to slow for highway speeds without sprocket change. I had to replace carburetor as it would not idle however this mod was planned from the start.I bought this bike with intentions on upgrading sprockets, carburetor and exhaust.The only real complaint I have is the bike doesn't have a kickstart. I guess I can jump it off if I had to but no backup kickstart sucks.Great bike for value though.Thanks,JT Thompson
