    I am an avid collector of bikes and intend on opening a museum here in southern Cali one day. My thoughts to you Ken are to ask for exactly what you need and do one building at a time. Painters , drywallers and people with extra materials will literally show up from outta the sky to complete your museum. Give them all thoughtful trophies for their investment. The Mormons build huge churches in a month by having all the members participate and that is one trait of their church that helps every member when they need it as they stick together. Just go in faith with the permit and build it. Put a half page or full page ad in "Dirt Bike" or "Motocross Action" Magazine as well as their digital content and collaberate with them !!!!! GIVE THEM A SECTION OF THE MUSEUM TO GIVE YOU FULL PAGE ADS FOR A YEAR AND YOU WILL GET THE 7.5 !! THEIR MAGAZINES SHOULD BE A HUGE PART OF YOUR MUSEUM !!! TAKE HI END PICTURES OF THE ORIGINAL MAGAZINES AND BLOW THEM TO BIGGER THAN POSTER SIZE AND HANG THEM ON THE WALLS ....EVERYWHERE !!! MAKE THOSE MAGAZINE COMPANIES SUPER VALID AND THEY WILL GET YOU YOUR GOAL. ! There are many old dirt bikers that have still never heard of you or your museum but EVERY VALID RIDER OR ENTHUSIAST WILL KNOW WHO YOU ARE WITH ONE YEAR IN THE MAG! Ken, I am in Huntington Beach on 20 acres with a similiar building that a good friend owns the whole property. Go to Zindcustoms.com and see my shop and site. Contact me if you wish, I have many more ideas like this and even better. !!

As I was taking it apart, I was asking myself if it’s time to stop and just let it go. I went to youtube and saw this video in my recommended, saw how passionate you are about your dream and the fact is I’m the same way about motorcycling. Seeing you want to complete yours is giving me motivation to try and fix it. Keep up the great work over at the museum.

    After you restore sections of the building you should look at leasing out space to other business'. They did that in a town I was raised in. The building was/is Whiten Machine Works and in it's hay day was the largest. The owner Paul Whiten also founded the town Whitensville. The WMW became one of the largest textile machinery companies in the world. Known as The "Shop" to locals Back in the 70's we went in and pulled out scrap-vices, anvils and tools. If we could haul it we took it. Wish we knew the value they would have in the future. They now lease out to other business. I had typed much morew about this but it just disappeared

    Dude... I believe that it would be appropriate for you to be playing patriotic music in the background as you make this very emotional speech to all of us, your fans. I don't know about everybody else... But you have become my new hero. You are living the American dream. You embody the American Spirit. God bless you Ken Kaplan... And your beautiful family. Now link me to your go fund me. Cuz you just got my vote. 🗽🇺🇸KAPLAN2024🇺🇸🗽

    I came across your page today and I know it wasn’t a fluke, your motorcycle auction was the first video I watched. I said to my self man this guy knows his bikes and I started watching many more, subscribed to your page and will be doing what I can to help you out! The 500 shootout was awesome I had an 85 & 87 Cr-500 and know exactly what you mean, the best bike ever. It’s been two generations now and my 3 grandsons ride my track every weekend now and GOD is so good he’s blessed my and will answer your prayer, the boldness you showed challenging GOD to meet your needs is exactly what he wants to see from his kids and when he said ask and you SHALL receive he wasn’t lying he LOVES YOU so much he sent his son to give his life for you and anyone who calls on his name so the small task you’ve asked of him is EASY remember he owns the cattle on a thousand hills and all the rest so in JESUS NAME I come in agreement with you for the full amount! You may want to get a larger safe to make room to store your cash! I live in Hughson California and will be praying for you and your family! GOD BLESS YOU! (Victory in Jesus)🙏🤔❤️💪&💰

    Find a used genie man lift to figure out those window panes, point some bricks, fix window sills. Probably do three, then it's wash rinse repeat production sweat equity, maybe local United rentals or sunbelt could help for a plug, or how about one of the manufactures your shedding so much light on would be mighty kind of them being that your shop has stirred up sales without a doubt stimulating people to get out and fix/ride just about every bike made.
