Nothing more American than a 220 lb. guy riding a 50cc mini bike. Man i love this country.
A 300 lb woman riding a mart cart
LMBO I love lil bikes

John Right; that’s more like it.
Lil bikes are awesome.
These were popular back in the day. Long live the 80's

Ross Campbell I’m 5’2 own a ninja 250 and can also fit on gsxr 1000 you’ll be fine
Glad to see the helmet bro 🤘🏼 my buddy is a motorcycle mechanic and years ago the night before a race at our local motocross track he was doing some work late on his sons ktm 50 and was riding around the shop testing what he had been working on , he didn’t grab a helmet and he wiped out and smashed his head bad on the pavement .
He was messed up from that and learned a valuable lesson 🤘🏼
Used to have so much fun screaming around the neighborhood on one of these back in HS in the late 90s, sweet little bike.
HELL YEAH
I loved mine back in the 90s. I lived about 4 miles from my job at a motorcycle dealership. A tank of gas lasted all week, including a night as a pit bike for our race team.
Handled like a dream. I could fold the pegs up around curves and corners.
You made my day. Just to hear the 2-stroke is heaven. Wish I was there to smell the exhaust fumes.
Lol 😂
I remember living in Key West Florida back in the 80s. The island was full of these bikes, no insurance, Drivers license or registration required. Everybody was riding them all over.
My GOD! I used to see a blue version of that one on my way to school! I loved that bike for being so tiny.
I owned one of these in high school that I installed a 90cc engine into. Sadly I sold it when I joined the Army in "98.
I joined in 98 and owned a black and yellow 92
These were fun. Mine was the blue and white colored one. Little brother flipped it while I was at work and broke the fairing bracket clean off. Sadly I used hose clamps to hold it together. I would love another one but years have gone by and so has gravity..Not sure what 6'3" 280lbs on that bike would look like today? Well, that would be one way to test durability!!
I joined in 32 and never had one
@@25BEDFORD Get a 125cc Tao Tao pit bike, they are awesome! I'm 6 ft 220lbs and it flies bro.👍
@@flyhighinthebigsky5683 you served in 1932?
I was debating on riding my bike today. Now, definitely. You inspired me with a 50cc machine! Thanks Ken! 🏁
i have the 80cc version with a 2016 YZ144 engine mounted in it... awesome little pocket rocket that blows Groms away.
I started drooling over these as soon as I saw them as a kid and still want one just as bad 👍✌️
I remember this ysr 50 back in the 80’s I wanted one. I was probably 14 or 15 at that time lol.
I'm 19 and I want this to get some groceries 😂

Bye bye.
I remember buying one brand new for 1450.... Loved it even more when I installed a roost boost plus on it!
This definitely takes my mind off what i should be doing lol when i found this channel i subbed for the amount of knowledge and bikes of all kinds but quickly get a laugh, i dream of buying a bike with you and your family some day
Thanks for the ride! That's a great little bike. I'm in to much bigger now, but love where i started 50 years ago.
I have one the same color. Need to add it to the to do list to drag out and tune up.
Want to sell it?
Love this bike. Nice vid Kap!!
Ay yo wassup man
Wow nice you have that. My dad gave me one when im in high school but i didnt take care of it. Nice too see one again!
Cool I remember I wanted one of those back in 1987 when they first came out seeing it at the Honda dealership I wanted one since then!!!✌
Great bike. Rode 1 few years ago got it up to 60mph and I'm 150 so much fun...
My neighbor Peter had a couple of these when I was a kid! I can't believe how Cherry this one is still!!
This was the bike that stared the bug for me my Dad had one when i was 4 & would take me rides on it still remember the first time he took me on my first ride one thing about bikes is their great memory makers these are your ultimate pocket rockets
Just to let you know, I back in 1991 I bought a brand new ysr50 came in all black with red stripes on it
and yes,I remember the battery compartment having a split in the top,right on the middle
So it wasn’t a crack on my case
Great fun bike I rode it for two years then gave it to a friend,that was in San Diego where I grew up cheers brother 👍🏼
In 87 I was 16 and bought a Yamaha riva jog. It looked similar to a riva razz, honda spree, or elite, but had 4hp while the others only had 2. I think the honda elite had 2.5, or 2.75. Regardless, nothing ran with my jog, not even modified mopeds. The first summer I had it, it would run 50-52 mph, and wasted no time getting there. I weighed 145 back then, even these mini crotch rockets got a run for their $. I kept the tires rock hard and the air filter pristine. My first speeding ticket was for 49mph in a 25 zone. After 3 trips to regular court, the judge dismissed my case, saying that a 50cc scooter couldn't possibly do 49mph. He told the cop, who the judge ordered to attend the 3rd session, to have his radar gun calibrated more often. My friend had a spree and he got stopped once. He was 15 and the cop told him to walk it home and that he would be watching, along with others. Instead, we tied the spree to my scooter with a newspaper delivery bag and some bungee cords I had in my box on the back. that was the fastest my friend ever went on his spree.
High school. Buddy down the street had one, along with an all black Yamaha 600 street bike. Used to take back streets to the local ice cream shop. Those YSR 50’s were so bitch’n.. Sound is so distinct!
I had that exact same bike. Mine was an 89' super clean, no altercations, never dropped and all factory decals. Man, I bet that thing is worth 10 times what I sold it for!
The tucked in tank top is also era-specific of 1989!
these were alot of fun back in high school days!
Man I bet alot of people were trying to buy that bike.I would love to have one especially in such great condition.
I had one new in 1988 @ from bound brook yamaha NJ. It was what I learned to shift drive a mc on. I was 16. It definitely did at least 50.
THAT thing is gorgeous. That 2 Stroke Piff thooooo.
For a moment there I thought that you had eating some magic beans and you grown to 20 feet tall in the night thank God when it turned to the next shot and I realised it was the bike that was small great vlog again
I knew a kid with one of these way back in the day and oh man did that make me jealous as a kid.
It looks like you're going pretty fast. I remember a buddy of mine had one of those when we were in junior high, 1988.
How cool is that! Because it's 50cc, here in New Zealand it would only need to be registered (licensed) as a moped/scooter and therefore doesn't require a "warrant of fitness" inspection. And to buzz around the city, to&from work....it'd be awesome. I'm currently still using an old FJ1200 for work commutes.
Wanted this bike for Christmas in 88 or 89. Grandparents got me a Honda spree instead! I'll say that again, a SPREE! Screw it. Had fun anyway
Don't worry man I got a china scooter.. after I had shown my parents a yamaha zippy I REALLY wanted. lol
Loved my 84 honda spree. Best times ever as a kid.
I got a spree recently, no plastics on it, looked ugly as hell, started first kick every time , wheelies real good with a flat back tire
@@davyjones2994 Nice! Fix it up a little bit and enjoy it👍
Amazing! Dad refused to buy me one when I was a kid. Thankfully mom would bike my first dirtbike soon after dad refused.
I'm in the process of building one, sourced most parts from Calamari Racing
Damn our taxes are going to those roads
Seen better roads in Iraq.
you should see gary indiana
vermont is worse
Looks like my town in some spots 😂
Anywhere in North Jersey is worst
Believe it or not my buddy fit an RD 400 enginev in this thing back in 1995, he was genius with stuff like that and a master car thief too, lol, we used to have alot of fun.
Correction it was the RD 350 liqid cooled he managed to fit in the YSR I remember the problem was the bike would overheat he put the radiator in the rear of the bike and it would not get enough air flow to cool, still for a teenager that create a motorcycle like that was impressive.
I had a friend that had the exact bike, he was the friend that had everything the family probably still has it, I always wanted it but never got it.
My father in law has the track edition with 120miles on it. Perfectly mint. Cool bike.
I remember seeing these all over when I was in grade school.
I owned one when I was 14-16 loved that little bike was bullet proof basically. Put a quarter size hole in the expansion chamber loud but was a rocket with the hole in exhaust totally uncorked it.
One of my favorite bikes,super rare but real mini pocket bike and built like a real bike
I rode a friends a lot back in the day. It was a blast.
amazing. its still working
really missing my YSR50 now, i had it bored out with a yz 80 and geared to do almost 100mph. it however liked to seize up when going downhills while revved high. couldn't tune the carb to fix that issue, it never seemed to be a problem though, it would fire right up after sitting 2 minutes to cool off. used to split lanes up to stop lights in california and pull away in a wheelie, i got the funniest looks on that bike. downed it one time when i hit a tiny bit of gravel in the road, those tiny tires are very unforgiving.
My dad used to have this he is 5'1" and he loved it.
Best mini bike ever. Good old days
I wanted one of these SO BAD when I was a kid
Sethro's Garage me too!
I see em for sale all the time around me not this clean thou not expensive either
@@jordanlittle5391 We are also talking about 10 years ago too
toronto ontario
Me too it was only 300 bucks and my dad didn’t buy me one instead he bought a 125 dirt bike for himself he Tried to pass it off to like it was mine on Christmas and the worst part about it was it didn’t run and he never fixed it then sold it worst Christmas bullshit ever
friend had one and shoehorned a yz 80 engine into it, it was insane and barely ridable, super fun tho..
Nice had a couple of these one had a kx250 engine in it and a different one with a dtr 125 to amazing little bikes ones I had was not in very good condition and engine parts missing so had to ad some extra power lol
All I kept thinking was ' Big guy, Little bike'. My inner Chris Farley!
Nice! I would go down to the local dealership and sit on one of these and dream about riding it!
What a masterpiece it's a work of art 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🏍👍🏼
Man, that is cool! I've never actually seen one like this! I want one for my son hell yeah! 🤙
That was my bike. Sold it and paid the taxes on my new camaro ss 1le. Perfect, as i had no plans on ever registering it anyway. It was a conversation piece. Too few miles on it to ride it now. Imho. There are still plenty of nice ones out there if you wanted one to actually ride. This one was in my living room. lol
Watching Memorial Day weekend 2020 ysr50 is sickkkk!
I had the 50 midnight when I was a kid, fun little bike
4:15 That honda riceboi was pumped about trying to get you to race him, the thought of finally finding someone he could beat in his whipper snipper must have been exciting for him.
Logan MacNeil wouldve been a close race
You seem cool. Humble and easy going.
that is by far the coolest thing i have ever seen..
i really want to buy one of these..what a fantastic little machine...love it..
I currently own a 89 ysr dual pipe and air filter with 2000 miles for the last 12 years it runs 62mph im 190pound , will like to upgrade engine 125 yz, and extended swim arm, Orlando fl
Mann I wanted one of those when I was a kid!!! So cool!
Loved my FZR-1000! Loved it
that is an unbelievable bike they don't get any cleaner than that man rare find fore sure
Man this thing is ducking awesome… truly stunning. Lol I wanna drag race it on my bicycle
You're lucky over there. We never had these in Australia and i don't know why
I saw onw in the 80s at a car / bike show and that was the day i knew i would buy a real bike as i got older. N i did n been riding ever since.
Lol factory defect. Such a salesman thing to say.
It's not a factory defect, it's the seam where the two halves are put together
Great sounding little bike
this bike was our dream bike as kids because with it you could have your license at 14 instead of 16 for everything else .
Hello i live in rockville and have the same bike not running but in the process of trying to fix it
Just picked one up. Same color. Needs some graphics thought , its been there and I'm gonna bring it back
Had a chance to buy a ysr 80 for 500 and didn't, but I am am getting the dt 80 from gage in pei that I told you about. I'll send it over years from now. I think he showed you that and a YZ50 or a yt250.
never seen one of these, fun looking little bike!
Need to find one, will look great next to my 88 fzr400
I used to have the YSR 80cc bleu great days
Have you considered writing your local representatives regarding road maintenance? Crikey!
You have one hell of a collection Bruddah!
Beautiful little bike
Good clean bike. I had one for years and was a nice piece of history.
I had one of these when I was 7 same exact color everything. I put a sticker on that rear lid that said. At 200MPH you have no friends. One thing I wish I would have kept for sure.
I don't want you killed on one of these powerful motorcycles man! Listen to reason Ken!!
They are increasing in value every day
You Sr are the man
Regret selling my YSR. Thanks for sharing!!!
These things are bad ass.. I always wanted to put a yz80 motor in one.
Good luck, engine swapping is almost impossible on bikes
William Bewley Engine swaps are possible as long as the swap is not too ridiculous. Going from a 50cc to an 80cc wouldn’t be all that hard.
That right there, is a real mans honda grom
I had one of those when I was young. Looked nothing like this one. Mine was a beater.. Lol Wish I still had it.
Found my new dream bike.
That little bike rocks bro
I need 1 for shop run I live in England so perfect as there is a shop every half a mile lol
Oh my gosh it’s so adorable!
I got a kawasaki ksr 80 2 stroke , here in Aus ,not full fairing but much the same , same wheels ,bigger motor , i have never seen another one here, they were very popular in japan,i wish i knew the back story of how it got here, everything and anything i can find is in Japanese . Do you happen to have one?
There is an original Yamaha fzr 600 with 4000 odd miles in Charlotte nc Craigslist for $1200. That would be a nice collection addition cheap.
Matrix Adjustment 4.0 , its probably BS.
They should change the name of Craigslist to BSlist.
That's all it is anymore.
But I have an all original, good running 91 FZR 600 that could use new fairings. It's definitely $1,200 worth of fun!
