The internet is loving all of these new 500 videos!
Best 30 min of my day, I would love to hang with these guys, just hanging at the compound and riding 500s what a way to spend any Sunday...they know how to rock.
If these guys get a tv show this year,2020 won't be such a bad year after all!
nah this is better than T.V. shhhhhhh!!!!!!
I hope discovery gives you guy’s a tv show you deserve one!
I hope so too,cannot get enough!!! I'd watch every day lol
They are come Fall 2020.
No shit that’s awesome can’t wait!
Gotta get more RM bikes though!!
I'm calling it......the Kaplan klans gonna get a TV show.....just an all around good dude , who him and his crew love what they do which makes for natural content.......keep being "BAD ASS" brother.....sending some love from Dallas Texas.
It’s like the Macho Man never died! He’s just wrestling big bores now!!
Lol I thought the same thing! Looks in even better shape than macho man.
Randy saying to Kaplin - Snap into a into a CR500
*DIG IT!! OOOOH YEAH!!*
CR500s are why chest protectors were invented.
Bigtime brick tbrowers
This looks so fun just ripping a huge field
Did I see a green one sitting in the back?
@@yfz350twin
Really, where?!. Awe man, now I gotta go back and look!
I wish I could have a field like that to open up my 150r and my cr85
Loving the content lately guys🤙
Seniors 97 is still the hole shot king there. The 86 sounds wicked!
Gorgeous women and 500 breathing two strokes! Best combo in the world 👍👌
85 had a heavier frame than the 86 and they lightened the 86 frame by changing the gusseting on the frame along with lightening the plastics by making them thinner. When you put them side by side you can see the difference, tank and seat is noticeable. I worked for Honda 85-87 and put these guys together I also have one of each. Love your videos.
Can we take in the fact this dude looks like a whole wwe wrestler
ive heard he do big numbers in bench to! so not only a show off !
I feel the 89-up engines have more top end while 86-88 are just monsters right off the bottom, but flatten out on top.
Never rode a 480 though, would love to give one a try..
Minor frome geometey changes in '94, along with a wider 4th and 5th gears, better fork in '96, better shock in '97.
When the bikes are idling and warming up at the house with all those FMF and pro circuit pipes it sounds like you are in the pits of a top fuel drag strip.
I am so F*** jealous right now !! You wrote history here, AWESOME !!!
Makes me remember how smooth and effortlessly David Bailey made it look riding a 500. Love your guys channel😎
Amazing content. Music to my ears. But please... save some Big Bore 500s for the rest of us 😂
I was smiling the whole time!😀😁 just amazing guys. These bikes are just legendary pieces of history. God bless Kaplan America!👍🇺🇸
Thanks for Taking me for a ride,been awhile since I've seen any dirt
Wow! Thanks for this! Takes me back in time to stress free days. My brother lived on a farm in NJ with big grassy fields and hills. We used to ride there in summer of ‘89. I had ‘89 kx500, bro had ‘87 rm250 and friend had ‘85 Kawasaki tecate 250 three wheeler. We had a blast ripping through those fields. Felt like I was there again.
Looks like a blast, wanna see y’all on the compound track bring it back
I’ll do anything for a yard like that no messing about the exact same with all 2 strokes racing about music to my ears all day every day ducking love this channel 💯💪🤜
12mins in loving it. All these 500s. The 85 and Kaplan America do it for me
Sooo cool !! I saw that Jr. how you cut around the trees to get up front - dope move- swapping the bikes !!! Soo awesome!!!!
Too bad neither of the Kaplan girls got an invite 🤷🏻♀️
I'll agree with that ❤
Aren't famly members automatically invited to the shenanigans? ;)
You know what, I'm getting a cr500 and I'm going to strip it and rebuild the whole thing so it looks brand new... thank You for getting a spark into me🇦🇺🤙
I am having a 1996 cr500 being built right now. I can not wait for it to be finished.
I was only put on this Planet to love CR 500'S beasts. Absolutely love it. 👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
huge respect to those guys who road these at a motocross level for 45 minutes these things will wear the average man out in about 3 laps lol Kaplan America that was fantastic living the dream god bless America
i really love riding times. this is my favorite video thus far
Exactly what time were you guys all out riding these monsters today? I thought I felt the ground shaking here in Massachusetts lol🤔😄🇺🇸
I would love to hangout and go riding with these guys!!! Definitely a bucket list addition.
I had a 79 rm400 when I was 13 I loved it.then I got a yz250 with a yz400 motor 78 I think.before that I had a 76 ts250 when I was 10 then a Yamaha dt360 then a ts400 then a dr400 79.ended up with a it490 but never got it running now I have a 96ktm 300.love the bikes and the attitude.stay blessed stay humble.
That is a humongous field, but that 500 looks like it’s sucking it up so fast it’s still not enough room lol!!!! Awesome!!
Can’t wait to come out in September to the shootout and watch you guys rip it up on the big bores!! See ya soon Kaplan America!!! 👍✌️🇺🇸
So much entertainment in New England..Wish I was there to see all that’s happening..💪🏻💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Making me miss taking my dads 87 out for WTFO pulls down the dirt road as a teenager- that’s a man’s bike right there.
BOLD NEW GRAPHICS. Someone grew up reading DIRT BIKE MAGAZINE
It's like looking at a remote control rally car for the first time when you were a kid
Words can't describe the feeling
89 was the most Scary Fun of any Bike I ever had. Instant arm pump if you revved it so Torquing around a gear high was the way to stay alive! Nobody could touch me in a Drag at 120lbs!🤣🤣
Hell yeah good ol video w Great Bikes n friends , im a retired pipefitter & pipe welder, out of local 23 pipefitters union Rockford,Illinois, my friend is also, we were talkin about ridin our bikes over to yr place & possibly buying a couple bikes from you , all yr videos bring back great memories , it's how we are, im going to be 58 , July 15, 2024 , i definately relate to yr vids, we are big kids & will never grow up, just the way i like it 👍👍👍
Two thumbs up! I miss my 86 500,if you could hang on, that thing would rip thru anything, loved to eat tires, riding a big thumper today.
Love how much they love 500’s
Haha when he blew into the pipe I died lol!!!!!!!!!!!
When he blew the pipe.the earth vibrated...
Me too.
Captain Chaos style from Cannon ball run!
it must be so pleasant to ride these
shout out from france btw
My man jr, he can ride the hell outta them 500s
I WAS WATCHING THIS VIDEO AND THINKING THAT I WOULD BE THE GUY THAT PULLED UP ON A KAWASAKI KX 500 LOL
Those are some beautiful (and BRUTAL) Super-Scoots!!.
I had an 86 CR500. It threw rocks, and squirrels.
That 500 motor should be in the Smithsonian.
Oh, and my name is also Kenny... so I got that goin for me
Settling bar bets the world over... Kaplan America!
When I was a kid on my CR 80 and was at camp while the big boys took a ride i could always tell the sound of my dads CR 500 out of the pack. PING DADING DADING DING..
It is known as The Beast of the Woods. You can ALWAYS HEAR A CR500!!!!!!
That 2 stroke sound a must with good head phones, shat myself when one flew by lol. And no police I live in the wrong country. Shit mine would be in the crusher by now.
I must say that you are a good dad.
I remember watching Jeff Liesk and Jean Michel Bayle in a sand race in Manjimup Western Australia....they were flying and just gliding over the sand. They lapped the field.
Two strokes will be best sounding crossers always than grunting four stroke more fun when the power band comes in
Break out the Blendzall and the 2 strokes,,,, and the World is Right... Kaplan for President. :)
Got my vote!✌🇺🇸
MAKE AMERICA RIP AGAIN!!!!!
Just awesome!
I'm from Sweden Scandinavia and I did race those bikes from 1983 whit the 480 up to 1999. I never race the AF frame and I personally think they are to stiff. I'm use to the flex from the carbon steel frame. On my race bikes I use Öhlins as I'm swedish and WP and Marzoochi conventional fork. There is nothing better they fit for different tracks ! On sand or bad conditions upside down is by far the best choice! On hard track whit Sharp edges the conventional fork is smootning your ride so less armpumps will take place!
My friend Marcus Hansson did win the world championship 1994 on Hayden Honda CR500. A longer rod smooth out the engine but compression play hugh part in how it runs. My race bike had 12:1 and was run race fule 120 octane. What das that do. Stronger pull from low mid to high mid. I use stock exhaust and hole list of pipes in our days we had probably 10 different setups and the muffler length play big part how motor will perform! Sad I was not there whit you could have told lots of historical things. Did like the video much 👍 best regards from Sweden 🇸🇪
Bjorn
Yeah I’m currently riding my xr650l right now here but I cannot forget the 2 cycles and my cr 250
Love the big 500's i miss my old 86.
I don’t have a CR500 but I do have a 1978 YZ400 and a 1981 YZ465 Would love to get one tho
Y’all make those wheelies look so easyyyyy
You guys should add a quadzilla 500 to the mix at some point. They're right up your alley. BRRAAAAPPPP!!!!!
Another awesome video guys! The pipe summons had me in stitches! Haha
Now next time let junior include his Kx in the testing! I’m a Honda guy too but the Kx has a monster motor when jetted and afternoon adding a fmf desert pipe! Keep it rolling boys and congrats on the show! I’ll be tuning it!
Also I’ll be in contact soon I’m having a hard time finding a 85-86 Cr 500 here in Canada
This should be main stream news! Not the protests or covid bull crap!
Ok ok ok that's what the hardest intro yet! It about time somebody put the 500 in the fields we're they love to be. Thank you kaplen God speed! #GodblessAmerica
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤟🤘
hey i like the 500 shootout but you guys forgot to mention the major change or atleast i think so it that 89-2001 motors have the new style jug which at the coolant jack goin strait up from the side of pipe instead of the coolant line going behind the the cylinder head like in models 85-88, there coolant jact when from the bottom of the pipe an wraps behind the back of the cylinder thats the major change honda did between those years..
On that nice green grass my 85 yz250 has no problem with 3rd gear starts
78,000 views and only 1k likes 😩guy is a legend come on people🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
That was some build up!! CR 500 always scared me lol!
helll yeah, I called it just heard on the video there gonna be getting a show in the fall it sounds like....."BAD ASS MAN"...
Out of all my bikes my 1990 cr500 was my favourite by far
Yeah all 2 cycle 500/s. Are badasss my cr 250 was nuff for me but I gotta respect the 500 because I’m weighing in at 220 now. Currently riding the xr650l and I can hit 96 mph or better with knobby tires
Yeah I would love to see the rm 500 again
That 97' hauls the mail, gets there bacon, and is full of piss and vinegar. Things just a rocket. This is just my opinion omg this side of the RUclips lol
You're 100% correct it is the two-time winner of the Big Bore shootout race which happens every September
So blessed, look at them camera girls...
That is the best video of all times really 2 stroke is life guys!!!
I love this channel y’all get straight to it no bullshittin an y’all race classic shit we not gonna see anywhere else 😂😂🤘🏽🔥
Yeah this one Kaplan is riding is crazy
Awesome brings back a lot of memories that's for sure. Love it
Cheers guys for the video, another fantastic day, brilliant line up of 500s 💖👍😁
WOOOOW KEN YOU REALLY PUT A GOOD SHOW ON , THIS VIDEO IS AWSOME, IM GOING TO SHARE THIS BUDDY THANKS.🙏👍
Ok! I see Senior Kaplan as the moto-cross Hulk Hogan!!! Straight up WWE dude!!! The old iron is still awsome!!
AWSOME riding, your in perfect shape for pro racing , ABSOLUTELY amazing. 👍🙏
Capes should be mandatory 🍁🛡
I want to ride one of these so badly
Greetings from England,love what you’re doing there,awesome bikes,I had an ‘87 cr500 then a ‘90 cr500,loved them both,’90 was a lot smoother to ride I found because of the usd forks and smoother powerband but loved the raw aggressive power of the ‘87.Wish I had either of them now,just even to look at :) oh and I had a maico 490 but at the time I thought it was just another old motocross bike with a weird left hand kick and decompressor,now I’m constantly searching internet to buy one again !! Love your videos keep it up man !!
you guys should order a maico 700. would love to see that thing rung out.
Power shifting in the power band is where it's at
I think they have discovered the fountain of youth! Great video.
I have a CR500AF with a 1993 modified engine in a 2009 CRF250 frame. It rides so much better than a stock CR500.
But my favourite ride is the Maico 490 mega2....arguably the best big bore 2 stroke ever made.
That’s what it’s all about swapping bike and having a frisk great video boys loved it ha 👍🇬🇧
Having all the fun again. Love. It
Kaplan jacked you are a legend. But plz if your gonna kick so much ass bring the intro back to all your videos
What a job!
I'll fly from Australia to join you guys in the fun and ripp up some golf courses.
I always thought the seats on these 500cc 2 strokes should look like a camels back where you can rest your massive set of bollocks!
Everyone thinks cr500 is rare the kaplan family own them all😂👌
Dude you the best! Everytime you make me lough and love your content more! 2stroke 4 life
That looks like so much fun guys. Those bikes are awesome!
4:47 gave Ken a reminder of who is in charge! 🤘
Those moguls - the models 👌🏻, those CR-500’s - Gold wheels - just said it lol u guys turn them into gold - sooo awesome. Ok let me shut up and pay attention lol
I think the nicest is the one with yellow number plate ,Sweet ride man
