Some people aren't very sensible. Letting classics rot or sending them off to the crusher, just plain dumb. You found some serious gems man.
So much GREATNESS on that Property!!! My Pop had a friend who worked for Yamaha corporate... Gave me that same ashtray at end of your vid... I was like 10 or 11 & told me DONT START SMOKING KID and I never did... I’ve gotta dig that HELMET ASHTRAY up lmho!!! Just AWESOME, simply AWESOME place... Thanks for sharing!!!!
Vintage motorcycles and old mopars, doesn't get any better than that.
I enjoy walking through an old car grave yard like that almost as much as car shows.
or better. :)
OMG! The 80s alone would have me drooling! EVERY SINGLE ONE of those 80s had an EXTREME impact on my childhood in some way or another! 😍😍😍
Same here.... I had the YZ80E (1979), RM125B, RM125T, PE250T ... the 80's..... couldn't sleep thinking about riding the next day....... remember the XR75 with the Gold DG Head.....🤩
JuxtaRepublic ... The E was actually 1978... The F was 1979... It was the 1974 Honda XR75 that CHANGED MY LIFE though. My best friend called me on Christmas morning, 1974 (we were 9 yrs old), and told me to come see what “Santa” had parked in his garage. I was immediately in love, and my friend Kevin let me SIT on it, but not for long. I NEVER got one. The next summer I got a cheap POS Montgomery Ward, 4HP Tecumseh orange mini-bike, and grudgingly rode it AROUND THE YARD while all my friends RODE REAL MOTORCYCLES together in the woods every day after school. I was FORBIDDEN to take the mini-bike out of the yard. I was the ULTIMATE UN-COOL kid. My desire and jealousy for a REAL motorcycle was out of control as I heard all the motorcycles echoing in the woods all around me, especially the 2-strokes. I was SURROUNDED by XR80s, GTMX80s, XL75s and 80s, CR and KX 80s, all of them, all around me. It was music to my ears and perfume to my nose. I used to try my best to chase them down and keep up on my bicycle, sometimes even on foot, so I could at least WATCH them ride. In 1979, my parents finally divorced and my mother moved me out of state and FINALLY got me a brand new 1979 Yamaha YZ80F... I BECAME the cool kid in my new neighborhood. And then it just grew from there; the YZ80F, YZ100F, YZ125G, a 50cc Puch moped as my “first street bike” at 15, in 1981, a 1980 Yamaha DT100 as a first dual sport (actually my mother’s bike that she rode with me while I rode on the moped - but it became my more often dual-sport), then I was FORCED to sell ALL bikes to get a car for college in 1983 - tragic loss! - and I finally bought an IT490 in 1988, and sold it (HUGE REGRET!) in 1992 desperate for money. The new owner totaled it the first week and broke both legs in 6 total places on it... I was financially forced to leave riding behind for another 8 years, then finally got a Honda Rebel that I rode for a couple years, and then when it died, I was financially forced again to not have any bikes for another 13 years (2002-2015), and FINALLY, as a reward for my son’s successful fight and victory over cancer in 2015, bought him and myself a pair of used father/son dirt bikes (TTR230 and KLX110), and haven’t looked back since. We now have 14 bikes and I’m back to a LIFE of riding now... A WR250R, TT250, KLR650, and KTM500 EXC-F, as our main rides, along with 10 other dirt bikes and pending restoration projects... It’s a good life when you ride... 😉😉😉 ... I still never got that XR75 though, and STILL want one out of sentimentality. I currently have a 1986 XR80, and 1978 YZ80 and GTMX 80 awaiting restoration, but still no XR75...
LOL! 😉😉😉
@@SteveHacker Hello from Sweden 🇸🇪.
Nice story👍👍👍
@@jamesthunder7590 ... Hello, and Happy New Year!

I can't wait for these bikes to be revived and rode again. I am eager to see how those xr75s turn out and that cr250.😀 Keep up the good work guys. 🇱🇷👍
The GTMX and YZ80's (mine was a 78) were childhood bikes for me...the YZ got me started in racing and I love the fact that you find so many and bring them back to life, so thank you for that.
Im watching this feeling old...I remember drooling over the sales brochures showing these bikes new...first bike...suzuki ds 100 in orange...
I could walk around that junk yard all day, all good people you deal with👍.
We had to go back to the Compound.., we "Only had enough Tie-Downs for 28 bikes....!!" 🤣🇺🇸🤣
Wow that is what heaven looks like. Great find guys. Its great to see these bikes restored it brings so many of us back to our childhoods. Ive done a few bikes wish i could of kept them all. 85 kx 125, 79 yz250 ,81yz 250, 78pe175, and the legendary 86cr 500.
Too cool! Let the Resto begin👍.
Preserving important history. “Maniacal madmen on their mean machines”!! That’s what the announcer advertising for the super cross series promotion radio spot said!!!👍. Living the dream!!
The hair on my arms stood up when I saw Christine. Lol
Just missed out on a yz100 like that my first bike was a TY 80 love watching your channel so many bikes from my youth
Man I love all of bikes WOW the yz 80 takes me back and the XL 185 me and my brother put a million miles on a XL 185👍🇺🇸
Love this channel , admire what you do someone’s gotta bring these old bikes back from the dead.
That mini bike was built by Arctic Cat snowmobile co. Theif River Falls Mn
vintage motorcycles are cool. even mr kaplan is vintage. awesome motorcycle place for sure
Mark Worman is the Mopar guru! I'd love to watch him walk through this graveyard and hear him speak! He has a tv show Graveyard Carz! They restore nothing but old mpoar! His knowledge of old mopar is unbelievable
NICE!!!.....I had a couple of the kawasaki mach 3's 500 same color. First one I put weirge pipes and second one I put bassani pipes and Marzocchi rear shocks among other things......thanks for the reminder.
The best junkyard I have been in was in Yellowknife NWT. I wasn't expecting much, but every car that made it up to Yellowknife never left town. And in the far North things don't rust ....at all.
Great episode big fan of Kaplan America it's funny I live 3 miles from that junk yard I drive by it all the time .I never knew how nice it was .I think I need a project.
Again thanks for sharing Ken & Kenny! Great Camera Work Kenny!!
Bikes, mopars and junk yards. Thanks Guys
So good to see so much survivor iron still out there , tv shows would have you believe its all gone .....the future of restoration is looking even better
Your right ken I love mopar and bike bone yards. You usually the most interesting things there. Great hall on those 19 bikes from road island can't wait to see them rip.
Yep mine was the 78 or 79 model too gezz just awesome wish i could find another to teach my kids and grandkids the respect in owning such an awesome little machine actually if i remember mine had a headlight and blinker setup.on handle bars but there was only a headlight no taillight or blinkers but yeah it was a very special bike to me so many fun and happy storys on that little beast cheers again
great place lots of nice cars and motorcykles
That was really good. ESP Halls. Gotta love classic KK rounding up 15-25% twice...’so about 100 years!’
Nice they are going to somebody that loves them shame you can't save them all and you look excited lol keep up the good work
Love your videos brother's brings back a lot of good times.riding the hole day thank you for your hard work and time one of the best on utube.in my opinion.
I spotted a little tomos TX50 supertom, that's the mini dirtbike that started it all for me!
Recently bought one from the internet to pass on to one of my kids
That Kawasaki tripple in the trailer,that is a bad mfr. My late brother built the engine on a friend of his on a 900 I believe,2 stroke tripple,board out and sick. My brother said he would be doing 120 when the power band kicked in and put it on the back wheel,wether you wanted to or not. My brother was riding when I was born,when I was about 8 he rode up on it,turned it off and his hands were shaking,very unusual for him. There wasn't anything on the road that could come close to it,not in all of Tampa Bay. Seeing all those old bikes man,you are so fortunate,awesome.
Dang!! Looking forward to visiting after some of the restrictions relax! Stay safe!
Dukes of Hazzard....My favorite childhood show. Had a huge crush on Daisy Duke. As a young kid, I had a t-shirt of her, laying across the hood of a Jeep. General Lee is Badass! 69 Dodge Charger RT with the 440 6 pack. John Schneider (No Duke) has has house/film studio/music studio, about 2 hours from my house. I need to go check it out one day. I would pay to ride in the General Lee, even more so, if I could drive it! Amazing video and vintage bikes. The green Kawasaki Triple 500 was Amazing! Would love to have one, and at the very least, have the opportunity to ride one. My Dad had a Kawasaki 350 Triple, and 500 Triple, before I was born in 1973. I heard many stories of Dad cutting up on them, and having seen how he rode 2 stroke dirtbikes, I bet it was entertaining to see! God Bless The Kaplan Family and the USA! I Love How You Say God Bless America, At The End Of Every Video? Whomever doesn't like it, Piss On Em. If they hate it that much here, I will pack their bags for them, and help them move.
Ken your becoming the vintage dirtbike kingpin in my book
I can remember sitting in the library in junior high looking at the magazine ad for that Yamaha MX. I think it was an 80 a 100 and a 175. I wound up getting a 1980 Suzuki ds100. Brand new! The good old days!
I'm 52 yrs old brother, the 1975 GT80 was my 1'st childhood bike - 1'st real bike after the old 5hp briggs.
Great video as always! I've posted before my 1st bike was a 78 YZ80 & my 1st race bike was a 82 YZ80J...that 79 is gorgeous!!
You're a mopar guy too...badass
Man! I’ve got to ride out to see you guys and the museum! Totally thought this was going to be my life when I was in high school. You’re really living the dream!
True mechanic couldn't resist the old tool box lol
So much to take it, what a awesome collection, it's a shame alot of them will never be anything more then parts cars, bike and rust, awesome score,
The loaner giant looking mini bike you got there looks like a rokon .
Cappy you got some three wheelers!! I love that Honda 50 your truly blessed brother I love your passion for life and bike's not bad sound effects either lol
Wow awesome junkyard nice load of bikes
Ok...this was scary. I literally watched two of my other favorite channels. The tommy mac wood working, and uncle tonys garage. When i tuned in here....i seen both of them in you. And the classic mopar took it over the top. Tony used to operate in NY. And Tommy was in Boston. I need to go buy a lotto ticket today. Great share!!!!
I started on a hand me down Yamaha GT 80 when I was little. It was held together with wire scraps and electrical tape. The forks were shot and the rear suspension made your kidneys hurt. But it just kept running! My dad sold it for $25 to a shop and brought me a 94 RM125. I wasn’t ready for that bike! I put it through a barbed wire fence! Ha. Still miss that GT80 to this day.
I love the USA & Dirt bikes!! keep it coming.
You guys are two down to earth Broz.🤙🏻✨⚡️🇺🇸⚡️ Love the cars and the motorcycles
My dad's 1974 tm250 was the first bike that I rode where I felt my balls in my throat because I gave it all it had when he finally let me take it for a ride it when I was about 11 or 12 in front of all his friends in about '83 or '84. I came back and both of us were shaking! LMBO!
That thing had a power band on it like a switch of nitrous! I would love to ride one again! He had an old school compression release on his for slowing down rapidly it was cool!
Gotta love vintage
Love that cr250 and 80 in those years this is a mint vid ide love to rummage around in a place like this and find stuff like this👌
I think my old Valiant is there. If you see one that is almost folded in half right behind drivers door with a person sized hole in the windshield then that would be it. The folded in half part came from a V-plow going about 35-40 mph. The plow hit us so hard it threw my buddy(pass) right through the windshield. Last view of him was the bottom of his sneakers going out the windshield
That mr50 is the holy grail! Ive been looking for one forever!
Good luck! I've seen a couple, but never for sale.
hmmmm'..? your not looking hard enough...google "motorcycle graph.com" & type in mr 50...and you shall see quite a few (*and no - i have no affiliation to the site..its just a good resource for finding bikes...
I like graveyards cause you can find interesting stuff.
my 1st street bike was a brand new YamahaTurbo
Great song at the beginning 👍 I love the Dirty Heads!
Seems like everybody made a bike that looked like that old Yamaha 200 in the trailer. I used to ride a 1965 Suzuki Hustler that looked almost just like that, but was a 250 twin smoker. It was the rocket of it's day. Only odometer I ever saw that read vertically.
Great video..man I love those old dirt bikes..
I live 10 min away from halls garage.I called you a week or so ago to get a appraisal price on my 1997 cr250 im restoring right now. I cant beleive how much the 2 strokes dirt bikes are selling for. Wish I had the money to buy that brand new 03 cr250 you guys have on ebay!
Luxusne video 👍 tie motocrossove veterány krása 😄👍
In the early 80s's U-Haul used to rent the Honda ATC's! They even let us hang one out of my friends Volkswagen hatchback!! Great times!
The "re-animator" is on the scene!
Breathing life back into these old classics
Wolverine is soo chill!
First time i rode a Seca Turbo was a test ride of a slightly used bike.. I has no idea the gear selector linkage had been reversed GP style.. i took off in 2nd gear.. wound it up near redline then money shifted into 1st.. scared the shit outta me.. lifted the wheel.. dam near looped it... and somehow didn't crash or break the engine.. i was so impressed with the durability, I bought the bike..
The Suzuki beside the Yamaha at the very beginning, yeah gimmie that one lol
Omg, those are some old beauties 😍
I can’t wait to visit the Motorcycle meca!
I went to HS with Harry, great guy and one hell of a businessman. This is a great video.
Guy reminded me of a cowboy
Woah! That's heaven. Great video
This is absolutely crazy. These vintage bikes are sweet, I’m from Rhode Island so it was also pretty cool to hear that history on the Scituate reservoir !! Definitely a knowledgeable dude
Awesome bikes 👍
I live here in Rhode Island.. this place is probably the best thing we have apparently
I love this channel man!! So friggin' cool!
