“If you want it enough and you put in the effort you can make anything happen. But there are sacrifices; sometimes you have to sell all your toys to get the museum to where it is, like I’ve done. Through blood, sweat, and tears, determination, passion, perseverance, sacrifice, grit, tears, (Did I say tears? Real tears.) You got us here, where we are here today. And I’ll support you guys watching; everybody who likes, clicks, or shares this video; you are part of the solution to our museum. Beyond our years. Legacy continuing…” -Kaplan America 🇺🇸

I sold a 1979 SR500 (red) at Barbers this year that I drove by you while you were on the phone in your truck. Didn't want to interrupt. Your video, "HOT ROD '78 Yamaha SR500 Thumper", inspired the build and I pulled a very nice price for the bike. The buyer was from California and he wrote me 2 days later to inform me that his truck broke down on the way home so he hopped on the SR and road it from (somewhere in) New Mexico to Flagstaff, Arizona to get help. He told me the bike performed flawlessly! I was more proud of the bike performing than I was of the money I got for it. Somehow, I think that was part of your message of "achieving your goals and dreams". Thanks for keeping it real!

Kaplan You hit the nail on the head describing the inner drive of getting a dream bike. Nobody knows the two wheel urge that's in a bikers soul. Riding is like flying to me. Once you experience it, either its in you or not. When I hear a motorcycle off in the distance I always listen and watch if its coming my way. Your channel is great keep up your great work.
