    Wow. I had a 1991 zr550 loved that thing. And yes literally rode the tires off that thing multiple times. Wish I still had it.

    Once again Ken, the bike is spectacular, basically N.O.S. . You are bringing in the best of the best. Museum grade. Then you take it to the next level. In the end it all comes down to getting those carbs to perform like FI. You have said it many times, purchasing these bikes from you, you are getting not only a killer piece but more importantly you are getting a mechanically sound machine. Nothing worse than a bike that stutters no matter how pretty she is. The preservation service and attention to detail is priceless. Not many are doing what you are doing. Definitely no one on this scale outside of private ventures. Can't wait for your next adventure and bike round up road trip. Maybe out west?

    In my opinion you should have the auction in late April or early May instead considering driving to CT in the ice & snow is a absolute white knuckle ride nightmare

    Clocks aren't original should be chrome pot type! otherwise nice bike.

  • @kirkbobo1363

    you should place the mic by the engine not the exhaust. NEW MC needs over 1000 dollars service??

    • @Jimmy_Watt
      @Jimmy_Watt Před 3 lety

      It's 30 years old. "New" with something like this is a grey area between actual age, and condition. Even if a 30 year old bike sits with zero miles on it, many rubber bits are going to age out, and all fluids will need to be replaced. They run the engines before selling them, and the old gas in the carbs will be fouled, and need a going through. This is basic stuff.

    • @KaplanCycles
      @KaplanCycles  Před 3 lety +1

      Its 30 years old, antique plate eligible in ct, hell yes it needed services!

    • @marshallcollins8634

      Yea he does .i would never ride a bike the way he does if it were not mine, definitely not if I'm trying to sell it. I guess someone told him it looks cool. He undoes 1/2 the good work the mechanics do.
