I hope everyone reading these comments, realize how hard of a decision it was to sell that bike!! But I knew that Kaplan cycles would finish it proper!! Way to go guys,nice work!! I can only hope that whoever buys it,appreciates it as much as I did.btw,that's all original paint on that bike!!
That's one of the coolest bikes ever made.
Do you know what they sold it for?
@@haulingfuel4759 not 100% sure,but I think it sold for around 22 grand.
@@darrinwoodward14 thank you, I just bought one and had a hard time pricing it. 22K seems like the way top of the market for the bike. But it is one year only, so…….
@@haulingfuel4759 seen one sell on mecum for 25,but that was about 5 years ago.have an 01 zx1100d with only 8 thousand original.in a couple years when it hits vintage,im putting it up for sale also.should bring around 15 when it hits 25 years old.
i had a canadian model blue with gold rims, round headlight and no fairing back in the day! the last of the traditional styled motorbikes! ...kicking myself for ever selling it
Im a factory honda motorcycle tech and Ive always wanted this bike because its my birth year and if Im not mistaken it was the only year honda produced that bike.
Good evening peeps,
With a heavy heart I need to pass on info that a family member has passed away. Mike (too tall) Bell. He had a heart attack yesterday while mountain bike riding. So sad. He was a hell of a human being. He was one that pushed that envelope always. Hell of a fisherman also.
Please raise your drinks in remembrance to a true legend in the moto world. He'll be missed for sure. Love you Mike.
So sad, I was a big fan always, may he R.I.P, GOD SPEED MIKE
RIP 🇺🇸
May Mike rest in peace and look into the face of God🙏
My deepest condolences to you&family. God Bless.
I still have my mint 83 CB 1100F Canadian model...
I just got my 1982 Cb909f Super Sport on the road two days ago. I love this bike.
Clearly if you had that bike for the time period. You were king of the road. My buddy bought one,same color. We seen what that bike was capable of. Not long after I bought one,then my best friend. We all had red&white ones. Great bike,great times great era. God bless.
I had a CB 900 F super sport 1981 with the full fairings ,,, very nice bikes !
Why do older bikes look and sound better then new bikes ? just beautiful.
Always wanted one of these. Today your lucky to find a nice one.
I bought a Nighthawk 700s in Blue in 1984. It was the smoothest, best sounding new bike of it's day. I would ride it 6 hours from camp Lejeune NC to Baltimore on the weekends to see my girl, I'd put my feet up on the front blinkers to stretch out my legs cruzin up i95 110 mph, no cops at 2-3 am. Great memories
i just love the exhaust note of the old bikes vs the new bikes the sound is completely different in my opionion
It is. Way different.
I bought a new 900 super sport.I put a a sport fairing & 4 into 1 headers.,good handling bike,cheap3 grand in 81 .once it got past 3,500 rpm things starting happening & quick.nimble too.
The 1983 CB1100F Supersport came with “black chrome” 4-2, dual exhaust from the factory.
Lovely bike. I’m lucky enough to have a new CB1100RS painted in these colour’s. If people can just look past peak bhp figures and enjoy the bikes as they are they are terrific.
Mine was blue, one of my favorites for sure.
Mine IS blue, a Canadian model with gold boomerang comstar wheels. Check out some of my video's!
I'm livin' my 80s all over again on this channel, friggin amazing bikes. Keep up the great work guys
This was a cool era for Honda's , reminds me a little of one of my favorite bikes the Honda Nighthawk CB700 SC another air cooled fast bike
Sweet. I always wanted a Nighthawk. Super cool.
Real bikes for real men
5 invisible hinges in the frame, be brave, afraid or both! was a fantastic bike, 3 gear power wheelies when I was 21! loved it
My dad had a 1981 cb900f2 bol d'or. These are really cool bikes!!!
Nice camera shooting from the front seat.
Man ya there's ya a dream bike back in the day I used to work at the Honda shop en somma the regulars came on these bikes when they would leave just about everyone there would drop what they were doing to watch these guys do them 12 0clock nooner for a mile up the hiway as they left
I had the 81 900cc model , great bike this one is a beauty
I had one for a bunch of years and it will always be one of my fav bikes ever..I wore it slap out by the time i was done..:)...
I bought one of these this summer, what a bike!! Sweet, sweet ride. Boy does it run.
I had one of these, it was a great bike.
Lovely bike i would definitely have 1 if I hadn't broken my hip a year ago. I love old classics but i thinking of something light & fun maybe a 70's CB400 four but in the uk a nice 1 is now silly money.
One of my bucket list bikes, and that is one beautiful specimen. That will sell quick, and go to a great home.
Wow if you felt the need for speed back in 83,this was one of the go to bikes. My brother had a GPZ 750,My goodness what a weapon. One sure way to the promise land.Amazing bike and before your time JR But I'm sure you can appreciate. God bless.
Hey jr. Is that front tire on backwards?
The good ole 80s.
My dad had a kz1000. Love the old school super bikes.
speaking as a 70s guy that sold motorcycles in four different dealerships in the 70s through 90s. I’ve owned a few dozen motorcycles. And I can tell you that these in-line air cooled four-cylinder bikes, Sound and feel pretty much exactly the same. They all have that high frequency buzz caused by the Pistons stopping at the end of their strokes together..Have you ever heard the saying, if you tried one, you’ve tried them all, that pretty much applies here. Like women, they all look slightly different but they all feel the same
Huh? Maybe you haven’t met some the gals I have, they can be very different, lol.
THIS IS THE BEST MOTORCYCLE IN ZEE WORLD!
One of these recently with 2,900 original miles, All original and mint condition went across the auction block and brought $5K
@00:30 I had an instant smile..
I'll disagree with you about the CB900F... it was an awesome machine, one of the best handling machine of the time period if not the best handling... as a 900 it was down on HP compared to other 1100's but that's a given. The CB1100F was a "stroked" 900 and it didn't rev as freely as the 900. On the 1100 the front wheel was larger and there was a slight change to the front end geometry which meant it didn't handle nearly as nimble as the 900.... I owned both machines. Loved both of these machines.
I miss my cb900f
I had a cb1100fd in Sydney when they came out, same duco as this one. I knew all the cb1100r's very well. Mine (the Australian spec) was specd with all the gold stuff, & light stuff from the cb1100rd - you didnt see them like that overseas. The cb1100fd was much more refined than the cb1100rd and had a better electrical system, amongst other things. The fairings on the R's rattled, flexed and banged your knees. My D was the fastest production motorcycle, and I always seemed to out-accelerate my friends on the R's, and they me when we swapped. I ownd a gpz1100b2 as well. I have known or owned most of the flagship Honda's and Kawi's from 1979 until the early 2000's and always felt the cb1100fd and the first model (carburated) cbr1100xx met my broad needs beautifully, day after day in Sydney, touring/dicing with friends to motorcycle camping rallies, and visiting farms in the outback. I think the current touring specd Ninja H2 would be the easy choice now if I needed to do it all again. In summary, I reckon the cb1100fd was the premier sport-tourer of it's day, and it was much easier to live with and just as fast as the cb1100rd.
I just bought one. 15,000 miles. Original except non painted side covers, kerker exhaust and mirrors missing.
👏Very very well spoken my man! No umms, uhhs or stalling anywhere. Keep up the great work and editing. The shine on that tank... 👌✨
Mr. Kaplan is a natural salesman!!!
I have one of these that was given to me after sitting 10 years in a buddy's basement. Took me 2 years to get it running. It's got an 85mph speedometer. I laugh every time that bike wraps that thing.. the fork oil in mine requires automatic transmission fluid. Thought that was neat.
Kaplan's and crew are doing God's work
Damn wish i had one
These bikes were the best bikes of there time
Freddy Spencer Eddie Lawson days
Enjoying this style of videos Jr...keep up the good work!
beautiful bike. I used to have one when i was stationed in Alaska (1995). Paid $300 not running... sold it not running for $600. perfect condition except that it didn't run, 11k miles. Cam Chain tensioner broke and i didn't have the money for rebuilding at that time. Thanks for the history lesson also. awesome bike.
Thanks for memories! But mine was 750 & black! I crashed over embankment, saving myself from 2 loaded log trucks racing, head to head, filling up entire roadway between Estacada an colton Oregon. Too bad, they just kept racing, 2 women in car much later helped me from under bike!
I knew two guys that had them when they came out. One turned into a drag racer and the other a road racer.
In 1983, here In Canada, Honda made available 3 ridiculously low priced bikes. My beloved CX650E, which had a similar shaped, steering mounted fairing.
Another one was this bike. Totally naked (no fairing), and some gold plated engine covers.
Both esthetic masterpieces.
Neither had really good trannies.
Aside from that...
That's a sweet bike. Sounds great, looks great and nothing else could touch Hondas in those years for build quality, IMO. I had a 84 VF1000F.in the 90s, and that was a bad ass machine, the same color scheme as the one in the video. Magnificent machine, and very fast and fun, comfortable, and a fairing that did something. I have a ZX-14R now, and I love it, it's also furiously fast and fun my only dislike is the windscreen (looks awesome, but basically useless)
Thanks for the history lesson. Sexy piece of history.
Congratulations on a beautiful motorcycle.
i love these bikes. my cousin has the blue and white with gold wheels in Canada.
LOVELY MOTORCYCLE. DID THE USA NOT GET THE CBX750F BACK IN 83/84
Got one, love it
Hey Kenny, awesome film work your interest in film shows here. I know your not reading off a teleprompter and this shows you know your shit! I am the guy you met a few months back in that Straight Piped Red Abrath. Great Stuff!!
Good video I had 1981 cb 750 f nothing but fun.
Awesome rare bike. 😎
AWESOME bike!
I'm surprised with such a low mileage bike, that the seat has been recovered. This bike deserves an OEM reproduction pattern cover.
Awesome bikes they were so sweet
Oh the memories! My first bike was the Honda MB5. After about a year, I developed better skills and graduated to the Honda FT500 Ascot. Then feeling even more honed after about another year, took a ride to the dealer where I bought it and rode home on a CB1100F. About 2 weeks later, a Kerker 4 into 1 was installed. From that point my neighborhood was treated to a well orchestrated sonic symphony with me as the conductor....whew...those were the days!!
Beautiful bike ! 👍👍👍
Very cool bike I've been lucky enough to get to ride a couple of them but never owned one, they were not as nice as that one but great bikes.🇺🇸
Why does yours have coil spring shocks and some have just one center airshock ?
I personally think that’s one of the best looking Hondas they ever put out and it’s a bad ass that some bitch looks great bro amazing I’ve been getting hit after hit on these videos on my Facebook I love it bro💯💪🏾💪🏾🔥👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🔥🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
That thing is the business 👌🏽
Cold clean air, nothing better.
Good smooth bikes
Mines got a radiator behind the front tire in the mud flap area .
Very nice
Nice !
bad ass bike
Is it still available?
I had one for the late 90’s very nice bike should’ve kept it but I sold it and bought a 1989 GSXR1100K the rest is history lol 😂
Best sounding bike of all time!!!!! Inline 6!!!!!!!!!!
That bike is absolutely drool worthy. Beautiful paint job, and I already know how quick she is. Would absolutely love to have that bike. Spoken like a True Patriot Jr. This country, with such low morale these days, with a bumbling idiot as a President, that has to be babysat by his handlers 24/7, needs more people like the Kaplan Family, to raise the morale, and bring back Patriotism. Gotta love the Kaplan Family. It would be a privilege to be a member of your family. If I ever win the powerball, I will be buying more bikes from y'all. Much love and respect, from your biggest fan in New Orleans, La...Now, sadly, the Murder Capital of The World. Delusional and Radical Democrats, and their laughingstock Mayor, Latoya Cantrell (Latoya The Destroyer) are what made the Beautiful City of New Orleans go to shit.
Terrific job with the video, especially inside the building. I was a video editor. Are you doing it yourself Jr.?
Jr is the brains of the operation, all the good videos are his, the shitty ones are Sr's
Anyone know how much this bike sold for??
The front tire is on backwards
Nice catch lol!
your head is on backwards
Lmao
No it’s not, that is correct with the V facing up.
@@jimccc9467 so the back tire is backwards then. There opposite just look
