Better bike than new ones out
Very nice .. the 250 4 stroke have come along way since the 1980s
I had a really tidy one of those in about 1983 , I mainly rode it on the street, it was lively power wise , the low seat height made it really manageable, off road especially, and yet still had decent wheel travel, my muffler got damaged and eventually came off and the exhaust note was outrageously loud , and I loved it ,but Im sure not everyone felt that love. Unfortunately the good times came to an end when I was hill climbing it on a gravel hill and the chain got tossed and bunched up at the front sprocket and it cracked the engine case. I'm pretty sure I could fix that now , but not then .A top local motocross racer where I lived actually raced one successfully for a while.
Wow what a time capsule find!
I should of waited before I commented. That "water plate" is cool! Never seen!
Kickass bike!
I remember as a kid Dave Taylor on a XT500 wheeling a full lap of the TT circuit
Best damn channel on TH-cam. We are heading out from Watertown NY, to visit Kaplan Cycles tomorrow. Cool people and cool bikes, sounds like a good place to visit to me. 🤘
The TT 500 ruled back in day and dr 500 600 Wv mountain bikes the like slate climbing and gas lines was the ones with dual shocks and metal tank the sleds
Wow! That bike is mint!
Very nice, hard to find the TT models
One of my favourite looking trail bikes, Love it!!
Speaking of helmets, we can’t even put a GoPro or stickers on our helmets in Australia without getting fined by the police.
Aus,seems to be a special country
Love the thumpers ! Tkx Ken!
Nice looking Yamaha. I knew a guy that had a TT500 street licensed. It was a wheelie machine!
I started wearing shin protection below my knee guards when not wearing full-on MX boots. Jagged, sharp steel footpegs can be mean.
had a 70s tt 500 turned into big bore flat tracker was a bad ass bike it was easier to run hop on n bump start then kick start

Looks mint I like this bike
Look at the fin's on the back of the front mud gard the stuff dreams are made of.
There must be a light kit to get this road legal…
Wow! What a beautiful 1981 40 years old TT 250. What a time capsule. You always blow My mind with all the dirt bikes lined up on both sides. What an amazing Yamaha tt250! Absolutely gorgeous great video! Ken, awesome video in Ronnie New England motorcycles museum number one Rockville Connecticut 1981 tt250 99% original. Absolutely amazing mind-blowing super hunky he fought for our rights RIP🖤 Nice looking boots Kaplan 🇺🇲 gas gas number one ❤
🐝🏁 a little thumper 👍great old bike, some one is going to have fun riding this moto
Decals never lasted because the plastic fuel tank always leach over time and also discolour.
My first bike was an XT250 I bought off my Dad that he bought the year I was born, later traded it on a TT250. Great bike also, it had a YZ250 swingarm which was a common mod.
Jeez I went some places on it before trading on a 94 TT-R250 once I left school and made some money.
Metal tank
@@JonnyG0969TTs have plastic tank, XTs had a steel tank
I wanted to see Mx I remember them I had a trail 70 rich kids had Mx lol
I remember all these old bikes you post . Seeing them when I was younger . Wow I'm 58 yrs old today :) haha what a long strange trip its been . :) Song by the greatful dead lol ... Nice bike man ! Ride safe Nice boots man ,, On helmets lol I remember riding w. no helmet and Op shorts on and tank and lil dog ran out of a yard under my front wheel and yanked the bike out from underneath me , I jumped up off the bike and didn't hit the ground . Nice boots man and take care of that leg !
The TT 500 ruled back in day and dr 500 600 Wv mountain bikes the like slate climbing and gas lines Just hang on lol the ones with dual shocks metal tank sleds
Nice bike lol, I had a friend who had one , he rode it 15 miles in 28 degree weather to were we lived in the dark , with no gloves, lol he come in the house tripping hollering saying I can't feel my fingers, he put his hands in hot water for awhile, we were young drinking, man he caught hell we were laughing so hard he got pissed, his fingers finally thawed a hour later lol..funny shit , good memories nice bike! 🇺🇲
Just thinking about it , that bike is either a 1980 model, or a 1981 model with 1980 tank decals . The 1981 decals are a different font of "TT" and have stripes underneath.
Yamahaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! excelenttttttt machine!!!!muy bonitaaaaasssssss!!!❤❤❤❤🇦🇷👌🙌💪🔥🚀
I worked on the road going versions and found them to be nice bikes with good reliability.
However, the oil filter housing is rather vulnerable to drop damage, so I would buy or fabricate a protective bar or shield.
I fabricated an aluminium plate with a silicone pad on the inner face next to the oil filter housing.
Subsequently, I saw damage to the plate which would have destroyed the oil filter housing!
What an absolutely gorgeous bike that is, its the nearest thing to the recent 1980's bikes new in the crate videos.
Cool Bike😍
That bike didn't look that good in the 80s! I luv the look now! Look at the sprocket on the back..no wander it has some tork!
Beware because John Rambo will take it without hesitation ( humour ).
Wow❗️
Mantap ✅️
Hey guys, can you rescue the CR500 that the Cars and Cameras channel are struggling with? It's getting painful to watch! ;)
Yes!
Hi Kaplan! I know you’re busy I have called your shop! I have a 2005KTM LC4 640 sm prestige
I need help to fix this machine

My first bike was an RT-100. That damn shifter was the worst. Next to the duel rear shocks!
I had a buddy who own one of those TT's and 2 MS 175'S they were tanks in the woods unfortunately he lost them all along with a few other bikes in a fire. 😢
But love Kaplan ❤️ love these videos!
Long live the Dinosaurs!
love that brand new mechanical whir that motor makes. Really mint, you should hold onto that one SR, looks good on you.
