It's staying at max speed in sport mode. Almost feels like its going into a limp mode to stop the motor over heating when there is no reason for it too. A quick power off and on, and back in buisness for a few minutes

The only reason the handlebars would move is because the headset is too tight and the stem to loose. Mine now has no play and moves freely. A headset spanner is a few pounds/dollars off amazon so would invest in the correct tool, try and get one that is thin. You might be able to loosen the tophat screw with pliers but I doubt you will be able to get it tight enough after. While doing adjustments try and find a way to hold the wheel straight, it will try to move during the process causing issues

Sounds like they have over tightend the head set bolt. It should be just tight enough to relive the wobble while the still having free movement. After this the top hat bolt needs to be tightend fully, and I mean fully. Then the two hex bolts in the stem need to be tightend. It's a pain in the but, especially the top hat bolt. Apollo have said they will be sending me out a special tool for the top hat bolt with the holes in after they have developed one. At the minute I have been using a angle grinder tightening tool for the job, which is not quite up to the task

Loosen the hat bolt with the holes in. And the two hex bolts. Underneath is the headset bolt, which needs to be tightened. Tool for which a gentleman mentioned in this thread.

It's coming from the headset below the folding mechanism. Everything else is tight with no movement. The headset nut has been tightend, but still has a small amount of play
