[@thelazzarinoexperience2881]

Living life with effort, integrity, grit, and a never quitting mentality to be the best version of yourself. Our gods will has already been decided but completed by the footwork you put in! This is something I replay to my 5 kids and growing teenager is starting to see the results and it looks like it helps for the betterment of there life to be a 100% at everything! Great stuff guys and gals!

[@neilouellette3004]

Owned a Summer Seasonal up there mid 80's-mid 90's when I was in my 20's. Cruised around on my 87 Honda CBR1000F Hurricane & my 87 IROC 5.7. Great memories and good times up there. Including Oxford Plains Speedway Amateur Night on Friday evenings. Great times and people up there Brother!!

One life lesson I have is family first. Always put your family first because they are the only family you got, enjoy every minute with because change can take many forms, and could happen at any moment

Emma may have hurdles in life, but she’ll never encounter a barrier ever again with that great attitude.

[@donaldmaclean4842]

It was the summer of 1989, I was 25 years old. I was rode my 1988 fj1200 from Glace Bay nova Scotia to Ol Orchard beach. My best memories of the entire trip was eating pizza and drinking a couple beers on the boardwalk chanting, USA, USA. Not to mention the girl who worked at I believe it was called the powder horn campground. She gave me a ride in the golf cart to my campsite. Sweet.

I am so proud of J.R. even thought I have never shaken his hand. I said it back at his prom video "that is a kid with character,morals and drive" Nice job boyz🤝❤🇺🇸

[@Mustang-tt3zt]

[@comedyash]

I'm not sure I have many pearls of wisdom to share yet, but I sure am learning alot from you and your family about realising life goals and finding ways to accomplish them. Never stop sharing the real talks, Old Orchard Beach pier looks pretty special especially being perched right at the end overlooking the ocean.

[@bigb800]

From canada, but have vacationed there on/off since the early 80s...love the feel there...always a hot spot.

[@bigpetesr5254]

I'm happy for you Ken, all you and your kids are very successful, and I can tell Jr payed close attention to you Ken as a great person and business man, Oh man that was a great video to kick of my day, It hit home for me because I'm always next to my father also helping the family out, and that's what it's about family first, and I I know for a fact Jr is all business, I hope you guys enjoyed your dinner, Jr got it right on the head surrounding your self around positive friends that talk about nothing but work and business because it really makes you confident at what you do Jr way to go my brother, Don't work for the money let the money work for you.....God bless

[@bigpetesr5254]

I can't wait to come visit and buy my first GasGas bike, and meet your family especially Jr he's so focused on making business grow and so am I, hopefully will get into a little business agreement, I would like to open up a GasGas dirt bike shop in Orange County NY,,. Moroneys had there turn for awhile, and I'm down with naming it Kaplan Cycles... And keep expanding...

[@KaplanCycles]

Sounds like a great 👍 plan!

[@johnhansen7499]

We might have even passed each other back in the 80s. I was a lobsterman for thirty two years and the place we went out of is not too far from there. So, considering that I'm in Northeast Brazil and came here in 95 on a swordfishing boat is wonderful to see you guys enjoying your selves at my old stomping grounds. We've been in Brazil for eight years now. My words of wisdom is, 'don't take your health for granted, because you never know what can happen in the future.' Keep going north, check out Harpswell Maine, you'll love it there!

[@michaelallen9784]

Nice to see you hanging out in my area!! Wish I could've made to Hemmond's to see you guys but had a wedding to attend!! God bless!!

Just love the real talk, motivated for another week

[@jeffhoya542]

Ken funny ass hell at the end LMAO!🤣

[@FlowJunkie65]

Good convo between Sr. and Jr. about who you hang around with and their effects on your life. Actually, Jr. shared an outstanding pearl of wisdom! "Sometimes ya gotta roll the dice!" Absolutely! Sometimes you've gotta take chances in life and just go for it if it's something that you really want! Maybe you win, maybe you lose, but you'll never know which one until you try! Like you did with your computer biz, Sr., and starting the museum and restoration biz. Nothing is ever certain, but you have to go for it otherwise you'll just never know if you could've had what you really wanted or dreamed of.

[@jasoneardley2202]

Nice to see people enjoying themselves after being locked down for a couple year’s love the positive energy the Kaplan crew share’s 🤙🏻 no one’s perfect everyone makes mistakes but as long as you learn from those mistakes makes you stronger congratulations on your real estate venture Jr, I’m turning 50 this year sober 11 year’s just closed a deal on some land in NH for my retirement home it would have never of happened if I continued dumping the shit down my throat!!! believe in God cause he’s there 🇺🇸

At the end of the day never be afraid to follow your heart and be an individual. You are the only one who has to be happy with the way u choose to live your life.

[@sonnyseabury4051]

I've never dipped the microdots, Brother. Lol ..The shit always scared me to death. I like to be as mentally sharp as possible. I'll let other be the laboratory rats and take the liquid blotter, and then I'll just pray for them. Nothing good ever comes about living in the fast lane, when the end result comes. Nobody Rides For Free In Life. A person can't realistically expect to live like a rockstar for years, abusing their bodies on a daily basis, and expect to walk away unscathed, without having some sort of health problems, or psychiatric problems. The level of maturity, success, and insight that Junior has, at the age of 22 is not only impressive and inspirational, it's a rarity these days. He learned from The Best. Ken Sr. Like my Grandmaw always said, If you go to bed with dogs, you're gonna wake up with fleas. God Bless Brother!

[@KaplanCycles]

Love it, your grandma was right!

[@sonnyseabury4051]

[@jasoneardley2202]

Well said I started following the Kaplan crew for about 6 months very inspiring family it’s awesome that sr contributed his wealth into the bike’s and the museum hat’s off to him!! God bless America 🇺🇸

[@jeffreycaban5107]

Great video of one of my all time favorite vacation spots. Been coming up here since I was 7 years old (55 now),and it never gets old. Agreed with you about Big Licks too, Wife and I agreed it was just "Meh". If you wanna try some excellent Ice Cream head 10 minutes over to Scarborough and try out The Dairy Corner. Much better Ice Cream and many choices too. While you're there swing next door to the Blast from the Past 50's style Diner. Excellent food with good portions and more than reasonably priced.

[@nickfay204]

One of my favorite spots Ken! You have wonderful taste in the places you like to visit! I live in Queensbury next to Lake George can’t wait to meet you in junior next year for sure and see the rig. Can’t believe how well Junior is doing at 22 years old and you got a remember who taught him these things you’re a good man and well spoken dad I see nothing but great success in your many years to come as well as juniors. Like you had mentioned rather than getting together and boozing and drugging Get together and focus on how to make your future better and brighter unfortunately when I got to the Y and the road I didn’t go down the best one but at 29 with a fiancé and a 2 1/2 year-old son life has changed for the better. I think you need to start a podcast man it helps myself And many other people who could use the positivity and share your knowledge! I’ve got a 2015 Yamaha Fz-09 that I keep pristine! This was a really good video thanks for sharing🤘🤘🤘

[@sonnyseabury4051]

Very much agreed, Brother. The Kaplans are some of the Best People Around.

[@metalted6128]

Watching you and your son, Is awesome!!! My dad and I had that, also, god rest his soul. My dad , like you sr. Are a great dad!!! Your son be also, some day. Being a good dad is for your children, not you. Thank you for sharing your family!! With us.

Tims pearl of wisdom; you got to give some to get some. Cheers ken and fam god bless!

[@sonnyseabury4051]

Ken Sr, My favorite flavor of ice cream, since I was a little kid is Baskin and Robbins, Chocolate and Peanut Butter. Chocolate Ice Cream with big chunks of Peanut Butter in it. The dynamics between You and Your Son bring me back to Dad and I. Dad would embarrass me, and I would walk outside. 🤣🤣🤣...Hilarious and Awesome Brother. ❤️

As soon as a person stops claiming “victim status,” life and goals can move forward. The sooner you realize the world owes you nothing, you can move forward. (This requires a constant attitude check, myself included !)
