I haven't watched it yet. His shop in 20 minutes from me.

I have a huge respect for Kaplan. He's always a big help when peoples bikes get stolen.

He's one of those guys that right before you're about to call him an over the top dork, you realize that his love for bikes and his country are real, and he's actually not over the top.

When I get up that way eventually, I'd like to swing through there and show him my Ohlins 360

The Shop

Visited his place 2 years ago; had a good conversation with him and his sons. We then bumped into them at Unadilla and had a good time. He is high energy, but genuinely loves everything motorcycle related, especially moto, and he has established a pretty neat shop/restoration business along with the museum. May seem a little quirky, but he's a good dude. Hope their show survives.

Ditto, he's a character, but damn he's got a VAST collection of vintage stuff, and moreover, stuff that works. Those bikes he fires up in his YT videos sound tight.

That was a damn cool show! Mr.Kaplan is definetly a tad out there but frickin awesome and perfect for TV

I have seen him on YouTube a few times and didn’t realize it until about halfway through the show. I’m a fan for sure

Cool- love the youtube videos. I don't see how you could be a motohead and not like this stuff.

Ken is a good dude. Back in my college days I worked at the cycle gear next to his computer shop. Always a super friendly guy. I wish him success with the show!

I enjoy his youtube channel. I wish I would have seen the show.

I went to a nice gathering there last year and the museum and all the bikes and memorabilia is fantastic. He seemed like a great guy when I was talking to him. Didn’t get to see the show yet but wish him well.
