That is the fastest 25 mph i've ever seen. It just goes to show how fast this bike is, that it makes 25 mph look like 60 or 70

Dream bike for me.. The new tech and great looks will last forever. I hope people buy these up and keep these around with the electric on the way.

Amazing, 500c's of 2 stroke power combined with electric start, fuel injection, and a counterbalancer all in a modern chassis that's street legal. This is the recipe for a proper modern 2 stroke that we all wish were built from the factory today. Good to hear you're getting orders left and right. Maybe the manufactures will start to take notice. Will we see some street supermoto versions since they're street legal? I would imagine the SM community would be all over this too.

Reminds me of when I was 19 and had a brand new 1987 CR500. Man, I miss that bike. Wish it had electric start tho. It took everything I had just to kick start it. It was a BEAST! Nothing compares to a 2 stroke 500cc!

Jeff "The Manic Mechanic" is an absolutely incredible engine builder and tuner. That guy is nearly irreplaceable.

Love how he tells him to be careful just before setting off. My dad did and does the same everytime I swing a leg over a bike. Great to hear

Love it! Cheers to you guys still being so passionate about 2 strokes.

Honda keeps dropping the ball coming up with a new XR650R so I have hung on to my O6 650L all these years but I think that gas gas is the answer to Honda not listening to their customers..

I think this bike here might be the best dirt bike ever built, well done. Crazy riding too

That GasGas bike is sick! Amazing power and won’t stall in the slows! Electric start? Jr. Is a super talented rider just like his father Ken the ripper! ( Jack the Ripper but with dirt bikes ) The Manic Mechanic is one awesome tuner also.

I've been a die-hard Honda fan ever since my first SL70 at age 6, and I love my CR500, but this bike definitely sparks my interest, esp since Honda killed off the 2 strokes so long ago.

Kaplan stays killing it on and off the bike!

I still can't believe it. Too good to be true. Amazing what you and BRC did. I want one I need one. Sounds wayy better after the manic tune also. Love it!👍👍

Man theyve come a long way from when I rode anything that resembles one of these. Hats off to Jeff for this tweeking.Its deceiving too looked lots faster than 25-30 mph!!lol!

I love it, a 500 2 stroke just brings a big smile to my face, the sound and the smell of the beasts is heaven, kaplan america does it in style yet again, totally friggin awesome ✌️🇦🇺❤️👍

You guys are like kids in a candy store my friend. Amazing. I thought the days of the 2 stroke 500 were long gone, yet here we are in the future with fuel injection and electric start!! I gotta have one for the collection.

He was going 25mph?!? No way, he hit at least 26.

This is how much I absolutley love you guys. This is probably my third time watching this, and everytime I keep trying to give you another THUMBS UP!!! HaHaHaHa

I'm truly amazed on the efi on these things. So smooth on the power delivery . I still love tuning the ol PWK 38mm's.

It's got power everywhere. Thing kicks ass.

Another great video. Thankyou for all your hard work and great posts for the Motorcycle community.

Watched it more then a few times... Jr's comment that it willnot stall is huge for Hare Scrambles saving my pennies. 😄👍

I'm only 42, but when I grow up, I want to run a motorcycle shop that builds awesome bikes! For real man, she's BEAUTIFUL! If I had an extra 20k, I'd love to order one of these before I die. Maybe when my kids finish college, you'll get a call. Also, seeing all those older bikes in an earlier video, from the late 70's early 80's really brought back memories, you have a cool collection!

It’s beautiful Kem , yah it breathes real well .. that pipe hangs out so good too , a nice carbon protector where you can’t see the clamps would suit it .. jetted perfect. Torque monster .. starts effortlessly too .

Just love the interplay with junior and pops. I live in Florida. Own two big repair shops. One a diesel shop. If you guys are ever down my way swing by. Always have cool diesel stuff cooking. Crown car care

Dad says “be careful “. Lol….awesome!

Junior is the man he makes the bike look that much better! Awesome job!

You have found a gold mine ...These bikes are going to put the big boys to shame . Back in the early eighties when the big bore 2 strokes got hot you were going to lose 10 places if you stalled in a tight corner . Those big bores were hard to start . In loose sand and mud you'd better keep it revving ...with no traction you could stall easy ...nice bike for sure . 👌 PK

Hell yea manic mechanic got it rippin

RoAd LeGaL and 25 mph. Love this guy. No channel makes me smile like this hahaha. GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!!!!

im so glad you guys are selling these, theres so many people out there that don't know about the BRC kits, these and AJ's bikes are the only option for people that want a new 500

I haven’t been this excited for a new bike in a long time. 2023 2 stroke 500. 🔥

Gonna buy one off you guys..saving my money..Kaplan cycles kicks ass!!

You got such a great kid.Good job on the parenting!

W😎W, 500 cc That is some serious 2 T Thanxs for keeping the 2T ALIVE! 👏😃

Never seen or ridden a 500 with that massive low end grunt .. and it looks awesome ,, Yes please :-)

That bike is super bad ass! That will put a smile on your face all day long!

You guys did a very professional job on this bike looks so nice !

I love your enthusiasm. I wish you were my neighbor!

I like how u mentioned the counter balance.great job all around.

Junior can ride - total respect and what a gorgeous hot bike - luv it

Love what you fellas are doin,keeping it real!

Love you videos, the passion you have for bikes & our country. God bless America!

I'm glad I found this channel a few months ago, this stuff is pure gold. Never heard you guys talk about supermotos though, would like to know what you think about them. Is it blasphemy against dirt bikes?

Fueling good !! Great all rounder from woods to street. Awesome work all

Manic makin the majic!

Wow. Never thought I’d see a duel purpose 2 stroke like that except the old Yamaha s. Love it !

It Must be Incredible Senior to be able to be Around all of those Incredible Machines Everyday!!!,It's Heaven on Earth!!!,God Bless America!!!!

I had a Can-Am MX 500 factory race bike. It had a lighter weight flywheel and that bike was insane. The Rotax Type 486 didn't have much vibration either. I'm glad the 2-stroke big bores are coming back. Anyway if that had a lighter flywheel you would definately struggle to keep the front end down on pavement. It had so much torque that shifting seemed optional. ATK once tried to sell 600cc and 700cc 2-strokes but I never had my hands on one. The thing is you probably can get a much bigger hit off of that with a lighter flywheel.

Smooth unbelievable from almost stalling but not studdering to wheelie

LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!

now thats a nice bit of kit....wouldnt mind that in my garage for shooting around our local lanes in the UK.

Good to see Jr on the Throttle!! That's a 'Iron Fist in a Velvet Glove' if ever I saw one!! 👌

Juniors a savage on the back wheel 🔥🔥

Just like when we were kids on our 3 wheelers. Willy"s down the main drag hahahahahaha love it!

I love that bike. I have watched this video six or nine times and was impressed more each time

Love this channel and company! Yous are definitely living the dream. I’m from the Uk and would love to visit one day myself will always put 2 strokes first till the day I die but love all motorbikes as well like yourselves.

73 Yamaha 500 loud as hell best sounding 500 ever

I concur....24.7mph. What a bike. These videos are great.

Send It Jr! Ken tells Jr he was only going 25 to 35 mph. 😂😂😂

Man..😁 That is ripping all through the rev range, Health as hell....Love it

The manic mechanic pulls through again. He really is a wizard. 👃👃

love the oversize tank ensures hour's of fun ,, great work Sr and the Kaplan Team

Its relatively quiet for a 500 2 stroke too, pretty impressive bike

Love that sound! Music to my ears!

bike's so sick it's ridiculous. you guys will sell a TON of them. I want one lol

Think about 500 kit for the new 300 SX with TBI and electronic power valve!

Glad it has an electric start. I can start my cr500 in shoes only because I know the trick on how to do it but the stock kickstart on the gasgas is super small to try to start it with that.

Never seen ken jr & ken snr so excited about a bike 👍

Yeah baby loving it😉

Sold , i could see myself ripping up some moist grass and single track on this bad boy , or even supermoto it!

good job Junior definitely got some serious Grant

🇨🇦 BRC engine conversion absolutely awesome love it Ken Sr & Ken Jr a modern day all rounder & a manic mechanic tune 🎵 fantastic 🇺🇸Kaplan GasGas500 Special Edition 💥💨💥💥 ❤️👍🏻

Instantly provoking giggles from me, hearing this guy say be careful while a top this machine had to be music to the young riders ears, it was to me

OMG!!! Really crazy bike and crazy biker!! 2stroke forever!!

I really admire you guys relationship. Big props dad

Wow..no words just...WOW...

Dude that bike runs good. My old 2 stroke was a pain in the ass, stalling, filing plugs…

Leeeeeet's goooo Junior 😏💯💪

The perfect commuter bike.

That would make a perfect 2T Supermoto 👌I hope they bring these to Australia

Reminds me of the old IT YAMAHA'S back in the day they were powerful monsters ....

Never seen Sr come up that drive like 👍 Jr lol 😆

Holy smokes guys. This is something else!

Sick. Enduro and mx at the same time.

Wow, dialed in!

The Swiss army knife of motorcycles.1 bike does all.it looks like it is so easy to ride too

That’s a daddy’s son! Like it

OMG if I could get rid of my 5 children I would get one of those today!

More George in the videos please. Love to see more of the shipping process.

I’ll wait 20 years to see how this new technology holds up lol

Wow 👌 👏 gotta have one

Sounds awesome. Trick bike: 2-stroke, oil injection, fuel injection electric start. The future is here! Looks like very smooth and manageable big bore power.

Amazing technology! 4-stroke and a 2-stroke combined in one. But better than both! Seems impossible… Wow! Impressive!

Jr is great at wheeling.

I had a Husqvarna 500XC ... loved everything about it except the VIBRATION.... my God didn't it VIBRATE.... would have loved a balance shaft like the BRC

Ever since I seen my mentor flying around town on his RD350 I fell in love with street legal two strokes. Hopefully other brands follow this path but I doubt it.

That bike is awesome, I loved the cr 500s but that is the new version. 👌 Crispy

That bunny hop was fucking sick 😂🤘

Awesome. Heard mixed reviews after the initial hype about the BRC500 kits but that thing looks like it’s flying. One of them in my 300 would be the ultimate dunes destroyer. 😎🤙
