Sveno Mick they really are, that’s all I’ve ever wanted to do was mess around with bikes. I’ve done that maintaining a fleet of 250cc Night Hawks , Rebels etc. but vintage and rare bikes are a different story.
250s not the 125s they discontinued there 93 KX125 crankshaft all I wanted was a retro bike picked that bike up and blew the crank immediately 1700 American down the drain 250s way better
I've had many '90's era YZ's & CR's, but my Favorites was my *'91 KX250 'Green Meanie'* with Perimeter Frame & Anodised Blue Forks!! That thing was Savage!! Someone Needs to Whack a *KX500 Motor into* a *KX250 Steel Perimeter Frame!!* That would be my *Dream Machine* Sounds like a Real Cool Project for Kaplan Motorcycles, & get Jr to Race it!!👍👍
Oh and me and my wife still have that 05 Suzuki katana, Rupp scrambler2, for sale. And the 68 triumph chopper I might want to put in the museum if your still interested?
Had two of these over the years, don't ride anymore, kids and wife and two many injuries, put a ban on me lol, by far the best 250 bike I've ever had., I've had cr Yz ete rm but these were the baby's
I miss my father, he always Falls into the mountain, gets swept by the Flood, and Falls on the cliff with this bike when he is drunk. he never died in those accidents. he died of a heart attack while sleeping 😥
Man I love your videos I,m 45 and I,m looking at getting my first kx was thinking 500 but I will start with a 250.The last bike I had was the RT360 73 the same one you guys have in your house got that when I was 12 I think going from a honda ct90 to a yamaha360 was awesome.....But yeah cant wait to get a kx it's going to be mean as. Thanks for teaching me about bikes and what too look out for when buying them.
This is an old video and I’ve been bitching about all the cool Kawi motorcycles. I finally bought myself a 1998kx250. So I’ll quit my bitching about it. I’m going to do 90,91 graphics, a blue seat and thinking about anodizing the forks blue too. I can’t wait.
ive always thought the kaw's looked better then other bikes probably the lime green color and ive always thought they were smoother riding an smoother power
I have a 91 I need to restore, it will take just a little bit to make it right, absolute rocket of a bike when it ran. Rip your arm out of the socket power.
Hey,trying to work out why my 1990 kx 250 has gold anodized forks? I've noticed,some are silver,blue or gold? I'm confused because this is the 2nd 1990 kx I've seen that has silver forks.Im wanting to know what colour my forks should be from factory for restoration purposes,if any one could help me clear this up it would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys
USA KX 125 & 250 1990 had conventional forks, in 1991 silver like in video, other years can be made to work on them, in the UK / Europe it was gold 41mm Kayaba forks for 1990 and blue 43mm for 1991
There is no doubt about it You and Your Staff are living the dream.

You ain't kidding there
The early 90,s KX and RM,s are the best looking bikes made
250s not the 125s they discontinued there 93 KX125 crankshaft all I wanted was a retro bike picked that bike up and blew the crank immediately 1700 American down the drain 250s way better
Brings back many good memories, I had a 1990 kx250 for my first bike back in 1999. Awesome bike
My buddy just got THIS (the one in the video) bike and let me tell you it’s still in mint condition and it’s very fast. Wheelie monster
Thanks for sharing!
I just got into bikes this year ive always wanted one since i was a kid. This is the bike im learning on lol im having so much fun
what a show these bikes... I recently restored a 1990 kx and I must say that they are unique bikes..!!
Bike is no joke !!! She’s a RIPA for sure !!! 🇺🇸💪🏻🙏 Kaplan America-
I actually just bought this bike It’s got crazy power. And it’s still in mint condition, I absolutely love it🫣
1988, 1989 , 1990 , 1991 were my favorite years for the KX 250 😎
Doesn’t matter the year, all the older bikes had their high points and low points, but they are all special.
Another sweet Kx from Mcnasty!😀👍🇺🇸

Hell yes give us a call 860-454-7024
So many awesome 2 strokes! Heaven!
Sweet! I have the same bike but a 91.
Had two of these over the years, don't ride anymore, kids and wife and two many injuries, put a ban on me lol, by far the best 250 bike I've ever had., I've had cr Yz ete rm but these were the baby's
Man I love that 93 kawa my favourite bike
Looks like it has UFO rad shrouds with original style graphic to me, slightly different colour to the tank or was it painted along with the frame?
That KX sounds great good shape also, where is all the RMs to be tested and included in your museum.
Yes Suzuki RM army.
Still got my 90 kx250 hiding at the back of my garage, should get it out and dust it off lol
I miss my father, he always Falls into the mountain, gets swept by the Flood, and Falls on the cliff with this bike when he is drunk. he never died in those accidents. he died of a heart attack while sleeping 😥
i love the 90 kx cracking bikes
YES!! Finally! Thank you Kaplan! My buddy has the same year bike but it's not as nice lol. Glad you put these vids up!👍👍
Got my Kaplan fix🤟
I knew that was my bike you got from Mass, i rebuilt that bike.

This was my bike back in the day. Well not this exact one. I still had it up to 2017 when it was destroyed in a fire. Wish I still had it.

Damn that's sick sounds awesome love it
dang that kx getsout ski fast .....prime time
It's such a weird looking bike. The shroud plastic looks to the future, But the rear side panels are stuck in the 80's.
Are you hiring? I work cheap. Getting to ride these awesome bikes would be payment enough for me🤘🤘🤗
im setting on a 91 i restored right now its a beast why so much traction idk but it goes anywhere.
Awesome brother! Love watching your videos. Sweet bike man.
You know where I can get a inner outer side case for this exact year bike
ive always thought the kaw's looked better then other bikes probably the lime green color and ive always thought they were smoother riding an smoother power
I have a 91 I need to restore, it will take just a little bit to make it right, absolute rocket of a bike when it ran. Rip your arm out of the socket power.
I don’t know what that means? But it’s definitely Green!!😂
Nice. Just like chicken raced in 90
I do love a good KX,
Beautiful bike
Take off kap #StonecoldkaplanAmerica 🤟🏾🤙🏾
Fantastic 😎👍🇬🇧
Why do I always want to lick my phone's screen when I see these bikes
I have the exact same bike 91 evo mines pristine, you mentioned you apras bikes,what's mine worth ??regards tim ??
Very nice video,s
Great review
what was that shipping cost to Australia
What kind of jetting do you have including the needle position mine I am having a hard time to tune mine
Find a good local dealer or motorcycle mechanic is my advice.
still nice
She's sweet,but,I like the '89 better.
I have a 90 kx125. Im doing a restoration on a 89 kx125 right now I cant wait
I own one and have the pink slip
They sold this KX for 5grand on ebay

Decent!
Please hydro plane the water you have in that yard. *CR500 flys across pond*
🤩 nice bike🔥l have one.
Just called i got one for sale in the process of getting rebuiltnew plastics and seat any intrest Wisco pistons and rings
Had a 91 kx 250 went like shit should have kept it
That’s not an original exhaust wrong shape for a 1990, and welds not like std.
Its factory exhaust alright,have same bike,exhaust system looks identical to .my bike
Looks the same as mine...
Its probably been dinged and repaired maybe? Possibly peice repaired, re welded in? Old pipe.
I’m a owner of this same bike
I have a 90 kx125 and I cant believe how fast the MF is,, the power ban is unreal
Me too. 👍
