I'm amazed at how much Ken has in helmets, jerseys, jackets, gloves. He has more of them than my wife has shoes!!!!!!

[@tappedout300xc]

Ohhhh, she's a beauty. Raced against Johnny "O" on his 125 Mugen back in 1980 and that bike was pure exotica.

[@cleapup2]

The white and red combo is off the hook and the Wizard sure get's those bikes sounding great!

[@annlefrancois5960]

Stripper rippers and beer the wizard is the man that bike rips. And sounds so crisp great job. And Christy nocked the graphics out of the park. That bike is badass.

[@krieger6966]

Perfection ..the vision ..coming together ..a 11 out of 10 ..moto masterpiece..🇺🇸

[@ronaldtartaglia4459]

Wizard gets these crisp. I like that the whole posse gets in on the videos. What a great Saturday morning. I enjoy this as much as Saturday morning cartoons when I was a kid.

[@kaplancycles7665]

You made my day

[@dennisperin2989]

Restoring my 96’ cr 250r this thing is badass, i would kill to to have the red motor in mine.

[@steveblottenberger1097]

Keep up the good work with the classic bikes it really means so much to me and it brings back a lot of good memories and I like the old Honda Jersey god do I remember that back in 1979 1980 Steve from Annapolis Maryland thank you

[@PRO4XKEV]

Old dirt bikes of the Yesterdays or the Yesteryears, My favorites..

[@borehole8631]

We all wish we had bikes like these. Sure, go on a forum and say you have one..... These guys have the bikes and ride them and make vids of the bikes in action. Super cool channel.

[@earllouie2137]

It's beautiful, a true museum piece

[@harleyrider9640]

Oh piss..there is just something special about Honda CR's and that one there steals the show..beautiful job Kaplan America!!

[@herbertsmith6416]

I love your Chanel. Hope to come see you all this summer

[@anavoll]

I rode a 1980 cr 125 ,back in the day. lots of others, but I get a huge kickstand just thinking back about these. The best motors, tons of clutch fun in the sand bullet proof. Smashed the bike and traded for a 1982 650 maxxim.

[@PoppityPopBwahh]

Front tire wasn't even down from the first wheelie and I had to smash the like button. Snappyyyyy 🤟🤪

[@mudbrats]

That thing sounds bad ass and looks amazing!

[@garettbodel3002]

If that was mine I would put a classy old school looking light set up in the front. Rear brake light and hidden directions. Quiet that pipe down. And that be my neighborhood mini bike. Every now and again take it to the pit. Oh yeah and the set of Evel Knievel skins that won't mess up the paint.

[@MrClarkM]

My Saturday Morning just got a whole lot better haha

[@keithpeterson3447]

Been waiting for this one to gets its video. That thing looks absolutely stunning!! I love everything about that thing. A home run nnnnno doubt! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@kaplancycles7665]

Thanks Keith!

[@tomtee4442]

@@kaplancycles7665 I have just bought a 125cc and wanted to put a heavy duty kick stand on it that lasts. What kick stand would you recommend something aluminum I can tig weld on the left side. Kick start is on the right side thanks.

[@kaplancycles7665]

[@joshuaross4644]

The Red Rocket 🚀 and the White Knight Sounds like a Comic Book 👌

[@blainegordon4345]

I sure don’t recall the left side kickstart on any of the Japanese four. All I could remember that on would be the Huskies, pentons montesa ext.

[@cr250rrcflyby3]

Talking bout a CREAM PUFF ! Holy moly spacoly ….IDK ? For the life of me ,why she wouldn’t mass produce a few specialty graphics? Never been in techthe dirt ! Probably never would either if I hit a scratch- off !

[@markcdeyoung3118]

Wow weeeeee that baby's 🍒 I'm afraid I would have to wear some tires off of it if I had it 😁👍 that color scheme is almost making it look like my '86 and '87 xl600r just Sweeeet !!!!

👍👊🏻💪🏻🙏

[@garettbodel3002]

No lie . We rebuilt the motor on one of Jojo Keller's old CR250 1980 1979 like that bike. With the red motor. The brakes horrible. I gave John c $100 as soon as the motor was in the bike and it was rolling. And drove it home with no front brakes . We're horrible on that bike.. Power systems in Pembroke high School..

[@keithbell8960]

progressive shocks on dat? 😑
