The finest looking dirt bike ever !!

I am a 1972 model myself, and can say that I haven't aged _nearly as well_ !! Sweet bike !

This one is a diamond. Those look so cool with the aluminum fenders, chrome on tank and front mud flap. Power looks smooth and controllable. Bikes used to be so simple and easy to work on back then.

The biggest technological development on mx bikes over the past 50 yrs has been suspension. Must have been wild to race one of these in the 70s when new.

Damn that bike is incredible.

This guy has hands down got the best job on the planet, how cool would it be to ride and deal in classic bikes like this every day of the week 🙂

Super bad ass Husky bike with massive 2 stroke engine. Thank you Kaplan and all staff. !! God bless all of you and God bless the United States..!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I love it when he says it the mad scientist and motorcycles 1972 400CR Husqvarna Steve McQueen if you watch videos like me, Ken Kaplan has the rarest of the rare Great video Ronnie. Really good gas gas number one Kaplan cycles number one New England motorcycle museum. Best in the world 🏍️❤ that thing will definitely rip the house off the foundation😮

2 stroke Tuesday... 🤘🤘

A work of Art,I remember seeing one of these when I was a kid back on the trails.

Perfect bike!!!

Beautifully restored machine. The early 70s big bore 2Ts were 50 hp in a 20HP bag, which could make them quite "exciting" to ride, and of course 40+ years have passed, so finding a clean one to restore to this condition is rare for sure! Speaking of early 70's big bore two strokes, I lost my "horsepower virginity" on a '74 Suzuki TM 400 Cyclone. Was 14 back then, 62 now and vividly remember that wheelie filled ride like yesterday. Have had tons of fun on fast bikes over the years, owned a 500cc dirt bike in the 90s a string of liter class sport bikes and currently on a 701 Enduro and 300 XC, but I'm jaded now, there is only one first time 😆

i had n old husky 390 automatic wicked bike

That scene on the beach, on any sunday 👍

Your missing the Redwing Boots ! That was such a great cover !

Nice bike I had a 1974 cr400 it was a beast, I was 14 years old brings back memories. 👍

Superb restoration and bike handling skills from ken!

Husqvarna made incredible bikes!

gotta love big bore Husky 2 stroke had one when i was a kid , either the front was in the air or the back tire was diggin a trench Husqvarna ALWAYS MEANT HORSEPOWER !!! love the old SWEDES !!!

It’s a thing of beauty I tell ya, brings me back to the 70’s riding and racing at Saddleback, Carlsbad & many other great tracks in So. Cal. Oh to have those fun fond days of glory back, damn good stuff…cheers 🍻 to ya! 😎🇺🇸✌️

A glorious bike made in heaven

i remember the first saturday my dad took us to the local motocross track. Husky's Hodaka's Pentons and the big 4 Japanese bikes wow can still remember the smell of caster oil pre mix😊😊

Masterpiece!

Thank you for sharing this beauty with us

Bring back the memories of when I was a kid my dad wrote Huskies and. Bultacos

Love the tank with the chrome side

That is one sick and classy looking bike! Quite sure you were going easy on her riding it, since it was already detailed. I bet she has a ton of torque! Isn't this the same type of dirtbike Steve McQueen rode in Any Given Sunday? He made great novies. My favorite is The Hunter, where he plays a Bounty Hunter. If you haven't seen it, it's worth the watch. ML&R.

😂 looking stronger than ever Mr. Kaplan 🏁

Sounds crisp as!

now i know💯 for sure.... i wannebee Steve MacQueen

I had a 1983 125 xc last of the metal fuel tank.....the thing was a beast for a 125

A masterpiece that deserves to be ridden with care and the right oil every time..

That idle sounds menacing

Captain America, watch out! It's Kaplan America! You look like America let a can of whoop ass out on a motorcycle!

Awesome video and bike Ken! 👍😁

The forks seem to be setup for road riding, wouldn't take that thing off a modern jump for sure.

Lots of power.

WISH I COULD WIN IT MIGHT BRING ME BACK TO LIFE

My that fence over ther 🎉❤

Got that wombat lookin aircleaner. Bad ass. On any Sunday I ✊🏼

What did this bike sell for? I don't see it in your auction list. Thanks

he lived in my neighborhood when i was a kid, he wasn't there most of the time. 60s. he might have been working for the studios then? the street was yucca tree street

Was it because of bad starter button is that what the problem was why you had to kick it cuz the starter button didn't work

Just like my old Bultaco kicked on the left side. Cool machine, but I like the Yamaha 400 better.

I swear I could smell the oil when you started it.

90mph in 6th sliding on gravel fire roads! Yee haw! Fricken better than sex! My ankle is still swollen after 50-years ago from ~ that backwards kick start ~ kickin back! Kapow, Ouch!

didn't they come with Husky on the seat cover?

I thought the shiny bits on the tank were either polished aluminum, or stainless steel , not chrome ?

Somebody is getting messages. Lol.

No less than $75K

How DO I BUY CHANCES

What we ALL wanna know is: did Sr. start it WITHOUT the Compression Release?

💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Husky vs tm 400?
