    Man, Y'all out did yourselves , restoring this Vintage Cafe Racer Style, Muscle Bike. Jaw Droppingly Gorgeous. Love her muffled and throaty exhaust note. Always has been my favorite sound, especially when the person lets loose on the throttle. Thinking about giving the RZ 350 back to you for this bike. I really love her looks. She's a headturner and an attention getter! I'm very tempted to do this, although I still truly love my RZ 350. She turns heads wherever she goes. I get asked where I bought it from, all of the time. I let them know about y'all, and your You Tube Channel. . Every single person thanked me, and now they're all addicted to Your Channel, as am I. 😂😂❤

    My first ride in 85 was a cb500. Straight pipes. I rode that bike to hell and back.

    Loved my 750-4 Honda’s. Just putting a Kerker header with individual air cleaners and re-jetted and tuned carbs can completely change how it performs! It automatically adds horsepower. Best choppers I ever had.

    Oh yeh, my first scooter was a 76’ CB400 SS, got my license on that little bike. What a Swiss watch of a machine it was.

    I generally don't like cafè racers, but this is nice..

    I usually don't approve of modded vintage bikes, but Mr. Kaplan has a unique sense of taste. And, if it's in his stable it has to be tasteful. SOHC Honda Fours always sound delightful no matter what the exhaust. I've always loved 500/ 550 Honda engines. Remember when I was a kid, Bob Braverman -Cycle Gide? flogged a '71 500 for 24 hours and the little Four ran like a champ. Good lookin' engine too.

    My 71 CL 350 Cafe has vintage Sun aluminum rims which makes it alot lighter.

    Probably reaching, but that bike from 78 just say trump loudly and clearly through exhaust noise. Good year too. 78 best year ever, to be born. But that bike makes 78 more sick.

    Front tire on backwards?

    Cool bike but I don't like the tiny front fender and the no back fender look. It messes with the lines of the motorcycle I'm not sure why that's a thing people are doing. Without the back fender the bike looks incomplete to me.

    • @KaplanCycles
      @KaplanCycles  10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It's a personal preference, we like the look, some people don't.

    • @KaplanCycles
      @KaplanCycles  10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It's super easy to put the stock fenders back on they bolt right on

    18inch alloy front rim and shorty chrome rear fender would look good

    Looks like the tread is going through wrong way on the front? All the water directed to the center of the tyre!? What's the thinking? Love this bike,had one,so good,perfect amount of power for backlane blasting.

      🪖If you live in the State of Connecticut and you are over the age of 18, motorcycle riders have the freedom to choose whether or not to wear a helmet.
      After decades of protesting the 1967 universal helmet law, Missouri amended our motorcycle helmet law in 2020. Riders must be age 26 or over and carry at least $50,000 medical insurance to cover potential injuries to receive a license.
      Unfortunately, statistics are showing 175 deaths in 2023 a 47% increase in motorcycle deaths in the state since enacting the law, the highest ever recorded.🎲🎲🎲
