@@KaplanCycles Do you sell 3 wheelers around a 110cc minimum? I'm thinking about a small ATV I need to check out some land weekly. ATV nothing to big, small and light like a 110cc 3 wheeler or maybe 4 wheeler with high and low lever. 110cc plenty enough power. If so what is your website and address thanks? I have a nice restored red exterior black interior 1969 California Camaro with paper work when I bought it in California. I thought about selling raffle tickets to give away the car and someone with a good online presence like you. Time has come thinning down my fleet I'm just going to keep 1 muscle car not 2. I had 4 muscle cars I'm down to 2 left. And I'm selling off other stuff thinging everything down. If interested leave me a message thanks.

Install an expansion chamber and some Cerianis on that 2-stroke golf cart, FloridaRossi! Woohoo!!! I have a friend with severe, debilitating back problems, and whenever we talk, it always includes the kinds of bikes that Ken Sr. and Ken Jr. house in their museum and restore and sell. My buddy's first choice in an MX if he could ride is a Bultaco Pursang. It'd be difficult for me to choose just one, especially after being reminded of all the great 2-stroke bikes from yesteryear by the Kaplans. But, it'd be a toss up between the inaugural year Honda Elsinore 250 with the silver and green tank, a Penton 125 Six Days, a Rickman Metisse 100 (Hodaka engine) or 125 (Sachs engine), an Ossa Stiletto 250, an AJS 250 Stormer, or a CZ 250. 🙂

One of our (AUSSIE) down under champions of moto X Gregg Ballard rode them for 490,s too many a championship he then went on to ride Honda's and create the Jeff Ballard 630 kit fof the dr 600,s in the 90,s and also the xr280 kit for the 250,s.. and if my memory is correct he went on to use them to win the Finke desert race which is held each year in Australia from the outback town of Finke to Alice Springs and back.. Toby Price is one of it a couple of times to name a champion Wonderful work you guys do..cheers Davo

Brings back memories! when I was 14 a friend of my brothers gave me a maico 501 and sand spider 250 that didn't run. After I got them running, I went to start the 501 and forgot to pull the compression release and it picked me up and deposited me over the handlebars. Didn't make that mistake again... Cheers guys

Such a beautiful load of Maicos. They’re definitely at the right place to continue life. That RMX to RM conversion is going to be great. If I remember correctly there wasn’t a lot of difference between the two. Suspension was set up for wood as was the gearing. Then just a headlight and such. Back in the day guys loved running the RM in enduros. Thank you for sharing these awesome vintage machines with us Ken and team!!

Oh hell you have a Penton there too!? I have his book, biography of John Penton. I live close to the track (Sunday creek raceway) that the GNCCS use for the John Penton round. I raced the GNCC on a mini when KTM had an anniversary “KTM day” I think it was), got a John penton medal 🏅 for finishing and have a pic of David Knight (factory KTM World champ) giving it to me. I also got to meet John that day, & he signed my John Penton book! I also got David knights pants & jersey from that same race, & at the next GNCC in Sparta Kentucky, managed to see him & get them both signed. (He was walking the track right by where we parked, we had jersey and pants with us hoping to see him. They were so so muddy from the John penton race I had to clean them before he could ever try to sign them. He signed the stuff while I used my back for a place for him to sign (have pics of that too!). Anyway, it really brought back a ton of memories from that day when you showed that bike. It went down as one of my childhood best memories for sure, the whole race weekend & the series of events that happened. If I’m not mistaken that was 2007 & my first year riding a KTM 85. I loved & still bleed orange!

Those are absolutely stunning! Back in the early '80's I had a YZ 490 and one of my riding friends had a Maico 490. Not that my Yamaha was a slouch, because it certainly wasn't. But his Maico used to smoke me on every ride! Usually by a lot. I'm sure those German bikes made way more horsepower than they were rated as. 👍
