I owned this same bike and it was nothing but a headache.

Back ground noise ruined the video.

Yep that was my first big motorcycle and it was a big motorcycle when you was a kid and you were going from a 90cc and it did pull like a freight train and it was awesome to cruise down the highway 6 gears Foward and then when you got in 5th a light came on the dash to let you know cuz it had a rotary shift you had to be careful

Hello guys, a question for the likeable guy with long hair, how tall are you? Just to be able to classify the circumstances. I think you're not too big for the Speedmaster. I myself am 188cm, hence the question. Are you taller? Best regards from Hamburg / Germany

I can't imagine anyone not liking bikes

Just curious how much did it sell for?

Wow that's a nice Suburban I owned a 2001 as well.

Iv got the same bike I'm restoring now there so awesome it was my buddy's bike we rode when we were kids love old two strokes 😮😂❤

beautiful Bike 🔥🔥🔥

Needs the exhausts each side. It ruins the look.

In 1990, my wife, to this day, fell in love with me on this exact bike. I sold it to buy her a ring. I have zero regrets. On our anniversary in 2017, she surprised me with a new Red, White & Blue Africa Twin that I didn't deserve.

yup ! i had one too , never let me down

Synonym for patina on chrome- rust lol.

The motor's completely rebuilt! BS!

My brother had one in 1977.

My first bike was a 1981 GS550L.

They should have never quit making the rm 2 strokes

I keep my black one like a treasure and pray every march it´s going to reawake as did all the years before. Afraid of the day the carburator needs a general overhaul. It´s still a beast. Got a bike with injection engine as well but it will never be the fun of a naturally aspirated engine on dope. I hate falling into motorbrake on changing gear. May be standard in 2025 but not my way of driving relaxed.

That is so 70s and great.Way back Harley raced and set land speed records with small displacement bikes for the flats.

Never seen senior struggle to wheelie on anything ....prolly the narrow power spread or senior is rusty...

Do y'all think $1,500 for a clean one owner 1983 garage kept 9,000 miles with all maintenance records is a good deal?

Had one as a senior in high school

How much you want

No helmet test ride?

Miałem, sprzedałem, płaczę

The second most beautiful MZ in my opinion, surpassed only by its predecessor, the MZ ETS 250.

Great bike great motor and those were popular here,all the 550s were great the kawasaki the seca was great earlier the honda,a gpz 550 is a great bike,whatever happened to them.Mew that model would have been around two thousand maybe a little less.

L is for Laverne, to old TV show !!

An 94 RM 250 pipe fit my 98

This is the most under appreciated motorcyle ever built ,,i bought a new 98 in 98 ,,they need a pipe really bad ,,suzy sold this bike street legal in other countries with a baffle inside the stock pipe so it needs to go first thing ,,they can crawl like a 4 stroke or blast like a 2 stroke ,,i loved mine

I had one of those in the early 90’s got it used. Fantastic bike.

I had the 86 125... loved them old HRP grips. If you find a good seat core keep that old cover... it ain't perfect but it's the correct cover. hell of a nice time peace

Man how do you find all these great looking bikes? I wish I lived close enough to come visit, would be really rad to come see some of these✌️

I love these old Huskies and the KTM's from the 80's. Actualy most of the two strokes from that time, I graduated from high school in '87 the greatest time for dirt bikes✌️

I'll tell you Ken. I seen that bike today and I thought it was brand new That's a really nice Fixer-Upper you had a lot of nice fixer-uppers there amazing museum sir. Amazing Best on the East Coast

Another great video!!! Tkx team Kaplan!

Nice here’s my mint 2004 street legal I sold Great bikes!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXqbYqqBgNdpb7ssi=5n5EBHFTx-tzQubZ

ALL ORIGINAL! Wow! Rather immaculate. You know, I used to have an '80 GS450L.

L designated Low Slinger GS Models 🏁

Was fortunate enough to pick one up locally a few months back. Only an hour and half drive away. Completely restored including all new paint and kept original scheme. Lord knows I didn't need another V4 but at the end of the day was too nice a bike and too good of a deal to pass up. I'd never ridden one before and was very impressed at how fun this "mini-ceptor" is. Plenty of horsepower and a BLAST to ride! And I absolutely love the little ducktail in back - supposed to have a HONDA decal on it. Thanks for all you do, Kenny and staff. I'm still enjoying that White '86 RC26 I got from you a year ago, too! Ride safe and Merry Christmas! ~Bazza in Florida

I had a GS550 when I was 15 and no license 😂😂😂

my friend had the 1980 450L

Nice 😊😊😊😊😊

How rare is this particular bike ?

Cleaned up pretty decent!

Four wheels move the body. Two wheels move the soul Kaplan cycles has great vintage Harley-Davidson fixer- uppers😮😮
