A 500cc Fuel Fuel motocross bike, no means, thats not attainable! Charles from mxRevival and Riley at BRC Racing Canada; “Right here maintain my beer!” Simply once we assume we’ve seen all of it, one thing comes alongside that surprises us and makes us simply stand again and benefit from the completed product. On this week’s Two-Stroke Tuesday Charles offers everybody the primary have a look at his accomplished Fuel Fuel MC500 appropriately named “HELFYRE”. Beneath are some phrases and pictures straight from the builder himself.
What began out as a meek MC250 has now absolutely reworked into a large MC500 utilizing one in all BRC racing’s unimaginable 500cc drop-in engine kits.
What’s actually particular about this conversion, in our case, (and other than you guys being capable of win it) is that we have been capable of not solely double the engine displacement- however the BRC equipment additionally allowed us to maintain a counter-balance & exhaust valve geared up engine, and add electrical begin to this as soon as “kick-only” Fuel Fuel mannequin.
Simply have a look at the dimensions of that engine! It took up each final little bit of actual property the Fuel Fuel chassis needed to provide.
With huge energy, it’s not a foul thought to improve your suspension, brakes & drive too. We made positive to succeed in out to Brandon at AHM Manufacturing unit Providers for our air-fork delete on HELFYRE. Brandon not solely customized anodized the inventory fork tubes & shock physique gold, however in addition they DLC coated all of our decrease shafts. Maybe most significantly, AHM absolutely transformed the center of those as soon as AER air forks with the holy grail of suspension internals – full Yamaha KYB / SSS elements now take the place of the not-so-loved air cartridge. Good riddance!
The boys at Filth Methods equipped their tremendous trick black zinc’d rotors, in addition to one in all their indestructible “Elite Kits” comprised of chain & entrance / rear sprockets. A should once you’re speaking 500 energy!
Tony at Elite Moto Manufacturing unit made positive your entrance sprocket ain’t coming off both with just a little Manufacturing unit Sauce!
They hooked mXrevival up with a customized seat cowl, by no means earlier than seen decal for FMF pipes (that you just guys can get now too!) and never one – however TWO fully totally different units of plastics and graphics for HELFYRE.
We made one set to taunt Justin Barcia into using this beast (he nonetheless hasn’t referred to as us again) & we’re calling the second, all pink equipment “HELMODE”.
After all, constructing a $35,000 dust bike signifies that there are actually numerous particulars we are able to’t cowl right here.
So make sure you try the most recent mXrevival YouTube video for the complete HELFYRE reveal. We give away MX elements in each single episode.
Wrapping up, keep tuned for an upcoming article on HELFYRE in Filth Bike Journal! And don’t allow us to catch you slippin’ with out a subscription both!
