@@73macrino Thank you for answering. Yes, I still own it after 9 years and I'm happy with it. In 2022 I modified it a bit. The original color of my HD was Hard Candy Quicksilver Flakes and I turned to Aston Martin Buckinghamshire Green, I shortened the fender and put the micro lights from Kellermann Germany. New videos on my channel about the 72 are coming soon in March/April. ✌🏼️
He's written over 7,000 motorcycles in just the last 10 years sometimes 20 bikes a day test rider for all the service place and all of the bikes we video
The paintjobs on the 72s is just stunning. The purple in this case goes so well with the chrome. The sound of the V&H pipes is phenomenal of course. Too bad it’s near impossible to get hold of a 72 in the UK. I have an Iron 883 which I am modifying very similarly to the 72, so ape bars and the 21” front wheel for example. I’ll get a little of that 72 experience at least. Just a question. Is the front fender the exact same fender you find on a stock Iron 883?
I had no idea this bike existed until I saw one last Friday at the Rock Store. I though it was a lot older (possibly and AMF) than it really was. Ive had my share of vintage Sportsters (2 XLCRS) and not being a mechanic I am thru with those. I am trying to find a red 72 right now. Great video. Thanks
Deka makes the batteries for Harley in Fleetwood, Pa. There actually about 30 minutes away from where Yuasa makes there batteries. I think they are both good brands.
Kenny, and little Kenny, not so little... you need a Kaplan Cycles sign at your gate, that lights up digital advertisement pictures bikes up there, it would be unobtainium!
Careful you almost lost the Yuasa sponsorship. Lol. I think the Sportster 72 is the best Sportster they ever made. Unfortunately I hate the fact that they dropped the 72 but yet continue to make the 48. Ugh. One of these days I'll find a 72 with the right yellowish lime paint job that I like
Hi Sir. I know it's been a couple years but I would like to know where this bike went or find a purple one like it. Interested in buying one. Any information would be great! Really enjoy your videos. Great job!
Hey Ken .Jean from Ontario Canada here ,been awhile since i watched any of your videos of laet ..i noticed your letting your hair grow long ..or is that thanks to the quarantine lock down and ya couldnt get to a barber..lol
Have you watched our channel or just the fake news? We are at war with bike thieves. Over 500 motorcycles were stolen in a 25 mile radius of the museum in the last 4 years alone! By armed thieves who run a gun theft ring also. Many of my employees , friends and associates are licensed for open carry at the museum and encouraged to bring there guns to work. We don't show the guns on the channel because of censorship.
@@KaplanCycles My friend ... I made a finding ... because it appears in the video ... after all I do not know what is happening in America..but in Europe the same happens with motorcycle thieves..it is a phenomenon that will never change ... but what you mention has nothing to do with what appears in a video that is posted on TH-cam

I’m absolutely obsessed with everything about this bike. Color, styling, low seat height, the sound… one day!!!
Let’s do it
I'm in love with this bike. Watched this vid at least 10 times. The Voodoo Purple is hard to come by. Send it to me in Australia!
Beautiful sound, beautiful motorcycle.
This dude is my hero.
That sound is fvckin' awesome! ❤️
I got the model 2015. It's a beautiful bike. 💪
Do you still own it and how’s it treating you for the last few years? What color do you have? I’m looking at a 72 and it’s very tempting!

@@thesunbeat very awesome!! I’ll definitely keep my eyes out for your vids!!
Sir Kaplan America you are the best!! Your bikes are awesome!
Why I watch these videos is because the guy shifts so clean. He should do some how to videos

man if i ever had to own a hd , it would be this gem.
Dude you have some of the prettiest bikes for sale I have seen anywhere. Very nice stuff.
I'm definitely getting this bike as my first.
The best Sportster they ever made...in my opinion.
Maybe the best looking. As a bike it's got a few flaws functionally speaking. Like the super small tank and extra thin front wheel.
Definitely, a bike you buy with your heart.
@@thtigmif change the tank to a bigger 3.3 tank, and put on a fatter shorter tire then you don't have the maybe best looking... anymore.
Nice bike! I just picked up a 2012 and wiil be restoring it😊

You get one yet
The voodoo purple and the mystic purple were always my favorite
Coolest damn bike I've seen. I'm gonna hold up getting a regular sportster 1200 and save up for one of these!
Ive got one for sale!
@@pww571 got one in the silver flake in 2021…love it to death

Sounds and looks awesome Ken!
It’s Kaplan America who the hell is Ken
God damn that bike is sexy. The 72 remains one of my favourite HD’s ever. The purple flake is just icing… video doesn’t do it justice.
This review helped me in buying my 72. That purple is impossible to find.
Beautiful machine... Totally in love. 👌👌👌🇮🇳
Dude its so cool to see you on a harley!!! All i ever watch is dirtbike stuff!! I love sportsters i want a 1200 bad they are bad ass!!
This Sportster is the little brother to my 2014 Softail Deluxe, also in Voodoo Purple flake.
Absolutely beautiful.
Never had a good HD battery. Lucky to last a season. Yuasa hasn’t failed yet. My experience
This dude looks like Buddy Repperton from the 80’s movie Christine.
I was thinking the same thing!😅
Almost bought a seventy two, always wanted this bar hopper. Instead I got a 77 ironhead sportster
Wolverine.
Careful you almost lost the Yuasa sponsorship. Lol. I think the Sportster 72 is the best Sportster they ever made. Unfortunately I hate the fact that they dropped the 72 but yet continue to make the 48. Ugh. One of these days I'll find a 72 with the right yellowish lime paint job that I like
I
Totally agree, the 48 is ugly far as I’m concerned. 72 has that oldish chopper feel to it
Deka makes harleys batteries, and Yuasa is made not too far from there.
This dude is my unknown soulmate 😍🤣🤣
Love,that,bike.
Sexy bike + great sound kap💪😎🍻
Nothing sounds better than the sportster no motorcycle on earth sounds better than it
Hi Sir. I know it's been a couple years but I would like to know where this bike went or find a purple one like it. Interested in buying one. Any information would be great! Really enjoy your videos. Great job!
Nice knuckle dusters
ma dawg got brasknuckels badass
This guy looks more stylish than that Harley :)
How much is this beast ??
My dude said "no miles on it. Just broke 2000 miles." Hold up...
2000 miles when it come to a Harley Davidson is not even a dent. A well Maintenanced Harley can reach 100,000 miles easy.
Very nice HD...
Can you put wider triple tree on this? I have same motorcycle.
Purchase a wide glide
Purchase a wide glide
Totally bad azz bike!👍
Sounds nice
el casco no es obligatorio en new england o que hostias
This thing has no miles on it. It just broke 2000 miles on it. Great
How much. Can I Finance this bike
There is one of these for $9000 on cycle trader with 25 miles on it
$15,000 spent on upgrade of a stage 1, paint job and vance and hines pipes?
