Just bought one not that long ago for my son who is 5 who has Special needs/Autism added training wheels and he zips around our cul de sack like he's a little boss
Yes he is a Boss, I'm so Glad to hear that he's into dirt bikes, my son is 4 also and he started early and he thinks he's a Boss, but not to he learns to take care of it Wich, includes letting the dirt bike cool down for an hour because you will warp the piston if you get of and wash it when the motor is too hot, but he's getting the hang of things, I can't get him off the damn thing but when it comes to wash time he'll try to sneak off, but he's gotten better, but that's awesome 👍 everyone starts out on training wheels God Bless you and your son....
@@davidowen1191 That's a beautiful thing to do brother. He'll always appreciate it, and it will keep his mind better occupied, so he doesn't always have to feel unpleasant emotions, and it will make things easier for him to deal with, and he will most likely be much happier. I have some friends and loved ones that autistic. God Bless!
@@davidowen1191 My Uncle Gino has an autistic child, and he loves Legos, his name is Tristan and he builds beautiful big Lego sets and he takes his time, and he keeps his room amaclit clean, they are such smart kids, he gets excited but all kids do, and he loves his quad and like sonny's comment it keeps them busy, my nephew Tristan wants to go into the Army next, God Bless you and your family,
I'm 30 and I still have my 91 Z50 I got for Christmas in 96. I used to race it at local tracks and caused quite a fuss before I moved up to a KTM pro senior. In my first race I got the holeshot by revving it up and neutral dropping it when the gate dropped, AND I took third place with it beating a bunch of rich kids on Cobras! Nobody cared that I was on a Z50 when we were lining up at the gate but after I got third suddenly other kids dads were complaining about my bike having three gears, even though it was way slower than a single speed Cobra. This was the 90s though, so common sense still prevailed and I got to take home my trophy. The track had a great finish line table top too, and I was airing it out like crazy. I was jumping so far and landing so hard with that heavy, metal tank twin shock bike that every time I landed the bike would make this huge BANG that literally sounded like a car wreck. I was jumping way farther than any other 50 kid at the track too and a small crowd gathered to cheer me on. People were talking about "the crazy kid airing out that Z50" for weeks and it earned me my old nickname "Big Air Brinkley" which stuck for years.
Ken brother cool. Cool story my buddy when we were 7 or 8 year olds he had 1970s z50 cool bike. First time I rode I rev it wide open and slam foot down on shifter 3 down automatic that front tire came up so fast I was on my butt on cement and bike allmost land on me as little kid I remember it. I loved it. Wipe outs and all. Cool bikes. Your living the dream an hats off to you for all your vids. The pep talks are beautiful too.
Was my first dirtbike I rode but only rode it around 20 seconds due to whiskey throttle and a peice of wood sending myself into the side of a swimming pool. My mom took it right back to the dealership lol
Awesome little starter bike 👍👍 it was a Honda trail 50 that my father gave me when I was a little guy that started my love for motorcycles ❤️I think I was 9-10 years old , I’m 52 now and still have a love for motorcycles 🏍️. It all started for me on that Honda trail 50 👍👍 love it
Nothing but original dime pieces come out of seniors museum keep up the good brother god bless seeing these bikes makes me happy knowing after back surgery I'll be able to ride again thank you for bringing out riding videos and how to make sure you restore every bike correctly to OEM with a bit of Kaplan cycles magic 🇦🇺

My first bike, dad bought it for me, best present, never forget that day!
Took me back nice lil 50
God bless America 🇺🇸
It’s pretty amazing to see one that mint, in my childhood those were ridden into the ground
Dad got me one when I was 2 and a half I rode that thing forever best bike I ever had trying to find a decent one for my boys
Any little kid would have loved that under their Christmas Tree!
One was under my tree for Christmas 96! I still have it and ride it all the time too!
@@Impactjunky Nice!
If I was 6yrs old. Dream bike.

Impressive that 50 can hold your weight!!!
I loved dirt bikes since I was a kid.
I always wanted one.
Cool doing what you're passionate about.
It's never too late. I'm 32 and just got my first bike in 10 years. Feels great every time I crack the throttle

Would have been cool getting one of these as a kid for christmas back in the day.
You might have except dad was saving it to sell in 22 years to make a little money.
I can confirm that - I received mine for Christmas 1969. A candy red Z50!
Kenny hubby said that bike is Fantastic
Kaplan, I am looking for a good set of front forks for my 1998 Z50R. Any ideas on where I can find them? Ray
Damn my birth year...
First 2 Wheeler I ever rode.
Wow, ya just don't see this stuff in MINT CONDITION 🙏
This still available?
My dad bought me this bike from a neighbor for $300 back in the early 2000s
One thing I don’t see much of on here is adventure bikes.
How are you gonna make any profit on it if you paid retail ?
Labor of love is done for free
Anyone remember the cartoon magilla gorilla.
Too fast for mr k 😂☝️
