Haha, I was waiting to see if Wizard leaned it over before he started it and he did. I had a '99 CR250 and you had to do that cold or spend 20 min kicking. That's a sweet looking bike. I like the hand welded pipe and the black tank and back fender. I met Jeremy McGrath at a meet and greet and asked him about the first generation aluminum frame my '99 250CR had. He said, "Just gas it wide open over some whoops. You will be all over the place." and "You can't keep it in a berm. It wants to jump out." He was talking to me as if I could ride like him. Lol. He was so nice and humble. It was awesome.
Man these bikes are morphing into the stuff of Legend... And with each comment I'm learning who the wizard really is..must have hauled @$$ back in the day according to the comments..Just hands down salt of the earth guys doing what they love.. keeping 2 strokes alive and ending the Video with GOD Bless America.Just awesome guys!!!!
Awesome and very fast bike. I almost spit out my soda, when Moses suggested making soup, with the deer in the parking lot. We love to eat alot of Deer Sausage (Venison), in Louisiana. A blackbear, I would be highly concerned about. My hand would be on that pistol you carry. Lol...That is one awesome Cr. I love the color combination throughout the bike. Love the red hubs and red triple clamps.
It’s gonna be a very sad day when the Wiz hangs it up, Kap. How does one replace such great fullness and knowledge?. You sure know how to pick’em Kap. 👍👍👍👍
Just got a clapped 96 cr 250r on a trade that I am going to try and rebuild and rip. Nice shiny full fmf exhaust, nice tires plastics are okay, front and rear shocks okay, but motor is missing bolts and nuts and covers 😂
Junior said wizard said C"OU"R🤣🤣🤣🤣 the wizard is a bad man. That brother is top-shelf mechanic. And he can ride the hell out of a bike. Much love and respect to that good brother. And I heard he was at the club last night too..... And I'm in South Carolina 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀 and Kaplan America.. Brother you are one hell of a man... You have the greatest I mean THE GREATEST...... OF EVERYTHING WE LOVE... YOU HAVE A GREAT FOLLOWING ON HERE A LOT OF GREAT PEOPLE. THAT FEEL THE SAME WAY I DO. EVERY BIKE HAS BEEN GONE THROUGH THOROUGHLY. YOU WOULD BE CRAZY NOT TO BUY A BIKE OFF OF YOU GUYS VERSUS GOING DOWN THE STREET GETTING SOMETHING CLAPPED-OUT. THESE BIKES ARE LEGIT.. TOO LEGIT TO QUIT. YOU HAVE THE GREATEST TEAM EVER LOTS OF GOOD PEOPLE.. AND YOU REPRESENT THE RED-WHITE-AND-BLUE MORE THAN ANYBODY YOU'RE A TRUE ROCKSTAR BROTHER NO DOUBT ABOUT I LOVE ALL Y'ALL AND THE LADIES OF COURSE THEY ROCK IT OUT..... GET YOU ONE YOU GUYS LOOK AT ALL THESE BADASS BIKES 💯💪🏼💪🏼💚🤟🏽🤟🏽
91 thru 96 was some of Hondas best yrs and I loved the black n red Honda of Troys team bikes and had pages n pages of them and mc’s peak bike cut out taped on my walls…still got a cool poster from 92 with a topless chick stradled a cr250 says take the ride of your life..I like the white zebra 91’s too…
hey guys i need a bit of advice. I would love another bike, for sure going to be a 2 stroke. I rode bikes from 9 years old until 17 years old. Last bike was a RM125. Im now 35 and 190 pounds naked .....just going to do some dirt road riding and trails. Would you recommend a 125 or 250.
I hit a doe at 72mph on the highway bout 4am goin to work 2wks ago…got headlight,fender,bumper,and grill but not that bad givin the circumstances…see 3 or 4 every morning splattered and knew my time would come…I drive 85 mile one way 4 days wk for over yr and it’s wore my little car out…had 5 Hondas from 79’ z50,91 and 93xr80,93 xr250,94 cr125..had the blue 78’ minibike with signals and mirrors and the funky bent bars but it never ran and never fooled with gettin it goin…miss the days with dad..
I absolutely hate to hear when a man says he should grow up. What’s wrong with havjng an interest in Dirtbikes at any age. It’s what keeps us alive! Life’s to short man.
Short story: I sold my 81' CR450R to a friend at a neighborhood discount. He took it down to the pine barrens sent it off a sand dune and popped his collarbone. His mom called me a week later and made me buy it back. I made a profit of $200 . After he healed up he went back to riding his YZ 125. I weighed 240 he weighed 150. Listen to your mother. GBA🇺🇸
96 250 to me is the pinnacle of 250s raced one 97 98 over 40 class never worse than 3rd only because would not do the tabletop still got some no 1s still have it still scary dh
U guys come across the world best bikes I tell u what I love riding u guys keep up the good work u guys rock foreal ripping the house is off the foundation straight rippasss
I got w enough stuff to build two of these bikes for years now and it kills me. If I don’t find the time soon I might just sell everything and my other bikes in the same situation and come buy a gas gas. I need to ride this summer!
@@KaplanCycles sadly it’s coming to that point with them.. also a pair of 89 cr125s same deal. A lot of work, not enough time, and just want the new problem free bike to use when I can.. I have you locked in already Ken. I promised you first dibs on my 87 FXRC.. the time is coming brother.. soon! Thank you
Raced one of those in over 40 class easily fastest bike on track lot of 2nd and 3rds only because I would not jump the tabletop better safe than sorry wife hated bikes and I needed a place to live should have kept the bike great video
Sorry Wizard you have to watch her go,I had a 95 CR250 and it was best 250 I've ever had they are amazing to race. You have to get her back and take her to Unadilla make Ken keep it until you buy her back! Help Wizard keep her Ken he hooks up your hillclimber....I see his pain letting her go 😢
It’s a crying shame 😢 the Wiz has to sell this awesome machine. It’s stunning just😢 to look 👀 at it and it starts 1st kick. I think it needs to stay in the family and even the museum. Too bad we couldn’t have a “ Don’t make the Wizard Cry fundraiser “ to help him get his truck 🛻 back on the road . We have a God that loves to do miracles for his people. Just saying……🇺🇸
Still hurts put my phone on the desk last night and a lightning bolt went up my arm. Right shoulder is shot, plus left bicep is torn u can see it in tank top. Trying to heal.
My favorite cr250 variation. The 1993-1996 cr's were the pinnacle of the cr250 in my opinion. My buddy got the black tank, black rear plastics & black Excel hoops on his 1994 cr125 back in the day. That bike was the business. I love the Honda of Troy graphics. Those bikes were always killer looking. I'd love to have that bike!

Deer says..... "Look at these fuckin humans in my domain"!!!
I live 5 miles from Troy. I remember going into the Honda of Troy shop as a kid. It's now a paint store
Same with Service Honda:(
That deer was definitely checking out those bikes !
Hey Senior, you are flooding the web with videos, lol 😝 nice work man. Never grow up Wizard, stay young at heart man 😊
Looks cool Wizard. I hope it goes for a good price $$$.
"Hey kenny, theres a fu.. a fricken deer outside" nice catch SR 🤣
