@@calvinly1043 Ah okay. Me and my dad are restoring a 1983 Cr480r as soon as we find a good frame for it, because ours was raced in 83, 84 and has a couple dings in the frame 🤙
@@Endo240 It can be easily and safely repaired by a certified welder. I had my '88 RC500 replica frame repaired & reinforced by a professional, and you'll never know how much work was done with it unless you saw it before it got its fresh blood-red paint.
You will not find the comedic genius with the most epic dirtbikes on the planet but greatest of all patriotic and honest people anywhere else on the face of this planet Kaplan cycles is truly one of a kind
Always had a huge love for old patriotic theme bikes . This thing is awesome and this guy is the best . Watch all his videos. Can't get any better than this
Love your passion....commitment and tireless enthusiasm for the badass two strokes from the days of yore! I'm road tripping to kaplan....your on my bucket list!
A fantastic build! I love you guys! Jesus bless and keep your business! Massive respect to you my brother! God bless your business and all those employed there! Aloha from Hawaii!!
I'm on all different channels I have had people ask me about where they can get this and that from all around the world and I always send them to you they need parts for vintage dirt bikes Australia the UK if they don't know they will know Kaplan is where it's at the real true red white and blue 💪👊👍
This is the one and only Kaplan America represents everything about motorcycles a true professional The Best of the Best and he's riding the baddest CR500 in the world this was a badass video man 💪👊👍
Daummmmm Bad Assss he did a damn good job on them Graphics man I know your channels going brother but it should be way bigger than what it is there ain't nobody working as hard as you do on your RUclips Everyday still holding it down at the shop much love and respect man👍👊👍👊❤
You're the man when it comes to 500s make a project bike CR 700 or bigger be the first in the world to represent The Fabulous world of Big Bore two strokes
Junior edits the best videos. His videography talent is sick. That is one gorgeous and patriotic CR 500 you have there, Brother. Out of all of the motorcycle channels on You Tube, Y'all are most definitely my #1 choice, even beyond motorcycle channels. Y'all have built a beautiful and impressive motorcycle empire up, Brother, through your many years or hard work and never giving up no matter what, which is why I highly admire and will always look to you and your family, brother. Every single day, I eagerly await new videos from y'all. Love the ending of the video, regarding what you did to that poor pumpkin! 🤣🤣🤣🤣Bike Thieves Beware. That same thing could happen to y'all!
Obviously you are a substantial rider with a lot of experience and you know what you are doing, but you really roasted that clutch on some of those launches lol
And some built Banshees, 450Rs, and 660Rs-these are all classics now and might have a higher profit potential than dirt bikes. I don’t know about today’s pandemic market (or the market up north) but you couldn’t give a two wheeler away in eastern Ky. We have no single track trails, rocky and tight woods only, plus not everyone meets the height and energy requirements for an off road machine that grew from BMX racing. Consider other markets. Diversify. The classic cars were a step in the right direction; Rail buggies, 4x4 quads. Use your mechanics: ppl aren’t willing or skilled enough to fix broken machines so there’s a big profit potential to be had from the lazy and desperate.
I have friends that's not on Facebook but they're on Instagram you know I got to show this because they got some 500 and there ain't another one like this one baddest of the baddest👍👊👍👊💪💪💪💪❤
I’m keeping my fingers crossed! Keep up the awesome work you guys are so cool! I’d love to see you rip around on some old school 2 stroke quads! Thanks for getting back to me
Nice video...bad pumpkin. I bet he had it coming to him. Love your videos. (I'm a fellow New England racer too- in the Championship Series Racing back in the late 80's early 90's with CCC. Still ride, but in PA.
Keep it. Its far too unique to let it go. Tip: use a *watermelon* and a hot lightweight hollowpoint load next time- the result will be a cloud of pink mist. 😁👍
I’m trading my 00 cr250r for a 96 cr500 today and I’m wondering what’s the best fork set up for this cr500? The forks that are on it are missing the damper rods so they can’t be adjusted anymore. So I’m looking to upgrade to something newer. Any help would be appreciated
Sets the bar, absolutely. Wonder how they got a frame with no numbers, and bigger question, how do you insure frames as "frame manufacturing" or frame altering company? Would a simple LLC cover bikes jumping 120' if a frame cradle or head tube pops off from a possible bad heat treatment, or a front hack lawn dart no fault of the companies frame or engine work? Bozo's Garage got a nice ring to it. I pictured a big sign with the name Hacks on the front of a shanty shit shack shop one day.
HEY JR if you're going to put a gopro on dads head atleast get the GPS stuff working i'd love to see the G force and just top speeds of the pulls and wholeshots in 3rd
I think everybody that watches this channel needs to share this video with at least one friend Facebook Instagram you name it y'all can pitch in and help get this brother up over a hundred k y'all know he deserves it man Hammond Jr and all the boys and ladies👍👍👊👊❤❤💪💪💪 everybody that's in these videos don't do nothing but show love that's all we can do back👊👊
@@KaplanCycles always on this end my brother you're one of the coolest dudes in the world when it comes to bikes and you don't only talk to talk you got the walk to back it up you really do deserve way more subscribers it don't make sense to me man you will get there and when you do it will take off like you ain't never believe y'all really do deserve it man definitely the coolest channel on RUclips when it comes to motorcycles and great people that's how I feel man 👍👍👊👊
Hey that shiny wood floor needs a circle burn right in the middle... let me know if you want me to bring my 1986 500 Suzuki Gamma up there and take care of that for ya

They should make a 110 octane/ 2stroke mix scented candle.
How about women's perfume? Lol.
You can buy a candle on eBay that smells like klotz 2 stroke. I have one 😏
I actually saw one in cycle gear but smelled absolutely terrible and nothing like it

Nothing in writing if they have until Christmas to decide if they want to do the show if not there's another network that wants it
