You guys must have a ton of time in designing and machining. I don’t think most guys fully understand what goes into something of this scale and quality. The 500 guys are blessed to have you guys making this possible.
We do! Tons of time… but you can see how much we simplified the whole process. That is our goal… to help out the DIY guy who wants to build a bike at home and not wait months for frame mods etc. it is pricy being we use the 2021 and 22 chassis.. so it is not for everyone! But the cool part is you can go back to a 450 if you ever wanted.. (i doubt it after you feel it as a 500!). Thank you for the support! Its what keeps us motivated to keep doing stuff like this.
This type of kit needs too happen on older frames. A lot of people won’t buy a brand new bike too swap. But it’s still so amazing. All your parts kick ass
You did an excellent job designing and building your kit. Great job guys. Excellent job on your video also. I used to ride the CR 500 in my younger days best time of my life.
I'll tell ya that's really a super nice kit! Your craftsmanship is bad ass. Everyone talks about AJ Wagner but I'd rather buy this kit to be honest! I have a mint restored 85 ATC 250R. I road it for years and years after I sold my banshee I bought new in 01. My old man bought a new 250R fourtrax in 86. He bought me a 125 fourtrax and I had it for 3 yrs and then I saved up 500 bucks working. I sold the 125 & bought a Suzuki Quadracer LT250R, I was 12. I got sick when I was 40 with fibromyalgia so I can't ride anymore. That's why I restored my ATC. If I ever did by I bike just to blast around on I'd get a nice aluminum frame & buy your kit and a 500R engine! I watch all your vids, keep up the great work and videos....👍🔥💯🏁
AJ was the pioneer for the CR500AF, and while they are expensive, they are factory-level builds that adress any possible trouble areas with the original design, and are warranted to boot.
Incredible task well designed you work is masterful you could easy built the best Two three and four wheel in the world ! Best of luck with this kit that eventually will evolve into another masterpiece
There is a company on eBay from the UK That sells a kit like this for short money but there is no airbox solution. Does yours have an airbox? The 2022 has a different shock body that does not allow an airbox without doing a remote reservoir shock from mx tech that costs $2400 or some other solution....how did you deal with that? What is the price and availability of your kit?
The kit from the UK is a weld in kit.. also does not come with radiators , or any of that but looks nice if you want to do the welding route ours is 100% bolt in no welding. If you check out the 2nd video i have some closeups of the intake i fabricated. We also currently use part of the OEM box. How ever We are working on some airbox designs currently - and will release them soon. We have invested in some 3d scanning equipment so some crazy new parts are coming. Pricing is at www.bvcoffroad.com with a full break down of parts included. We have been running a pre order( with alot of interest from all over ) and are producing a pile of these in the next couple of weeks. Soon they will be in stock ready to ship!
Is the Y higher on the new crf frames for the exhaust to fit through and smaller (lower down )on the old crf frames if you get what i mean so you don’t have to chop the frame so a kit could be designed to fit the old crf frame
I feel you! I had issues in the past with some fasteners… but we sourced an awesome hardware supplier… no stripping issues. Also helps to use quality tools like snap on and eliminate any issues.
@@BVCOFFROAD yeah makes sense I guess I’ve always felt with average tools and average bolts good to hear hardware companies improving the Alan head cuz it can be a pain
Do yourself a favor and ditch the Lectron You’ll thank me later Get a CR250R Airstriker and run I believe I jetted my 99 CR5 with a 70 pilot and 74 main Runs and starts like an electric motor
so far ive actually really enjoyed the lectron.. bike runs super crisp ive ran air strikers in the past on many builds (trx250r etc) they are great also

I have one of the last CR 500's built. This is definitely on my bucket list!
Incredible machine work!! This is going to be one sweet 500!! The time and effort that you guys have put into this is unreal!!
I dig the billet hose extension with built in cooling fins!

Great video! I feel this kind of conversion leaves the motor higher up than necessary though. The convenience is nice though.
I would be interested to see how well it holds up a torture test is in need
It’s crazy how much thinner these new frames look compared to the older 450 frames. The twin spars look half the size.
They really are half the size now
I like this better than how service honda does it...so this isnt all aluminum frames? Just 2021/2022?
No need for apology of noise of your amazing parts being made!!
Best kit I've ever seen.
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Just when I thought I had nothing to do with all my 2021 and 2022 CRF450R chassis lying around ;-)
The stator flywheel n clutch cable look exactly like my 84 cr500r...good to know👍
Unreal i love what y’all do
That kit is terrific
Can u guys make kit for a trx450r frame?
great looking kit.
do you do one for KX 500 into KLX450R?
Well done. Great engineering, alot of thought process. The frame will be have as designed. 243 LOCTITE would be a great addition. 🙄😷👌
Incredible task well designed you work is masterful you could easy built the best Two three and four wheel in the world ! Best of luck with this kit that eventually will evolve into another masterpiece
Simply amazing, thanks for you're dedication!
Sweeeeeeet! Idea for next build; Banshee engine YFZ450R chassis single pipe single carb
It would run terrible with a single pipe.
i have a clean 92 500r, i was planning on rebuilding it but maybe ill just swap my new 450 over!
That is slick!!! Great job
Would there be place for a battery under the seat?
Is it Adam Millar that did the decomp head??

@@BVCOFFROAD how much for one? is there any ideas to built one for the 2017 model? can it be shipped to Portugal?
Will you do a KX500 conversion???
Absolutely if we can find a good donor bike..
@@BVCOFFROAD I will be your first customer
What you guys doing with the yfz and that’s cool that you guys made that for Cr 500 af builds

Very cool, but I can't help but wonder... why?? Since 2019 the crf450s have made more power than any stock cr500 motor so i just don't get it.
Man theres just something about a 500…. Have you rode one??
@@BVCOFFROAD sold my 85 (for a mini fortune) after riding my buddies 2020. No comparison.
They're like Heroin....... not for everyone, not the best idea..... but whoever trys them gets hooked for life
Do you make these mounts for the older crf250s or just the newer models ?
No notching or clearancing the frame or cases?
Did you tune that pipe for the 500 or was it a cut and paste job
Don't get me wrong I like the pie cut look
Its built by JSV for a cr500
Do the same kit for Cr250R 2003!
Wow awesome kit do they make a kit for 250 engines when are these bike manufacturers going to realize that people want two strokes again
How much for complete bike roller
And can you make an air box
Fit on older cr chassis ? Please let me know just starting looking into 500 builds because I want something different from my trail 250
21 and 22 chassis
Also 23 and 24 haha
I think you can learn a lot from RJ.
How much? Ship to uk?
very impressed
So beautiful ❤❤❤
Nice I’ll take it!
Great video.. too bad engine mounting kit DOESN'T COME WITH "RUBBER BUSHINGS" TO DRAMATICALLY REDUCE 500 CC VIBRATION .. A suggestion
No need the cradle and this 450 chassis makes it vibrate less than a original 500 frame
They don't even really vibrate so much as buzz.
And a trued and balanced cranks will stop that.
I want one, are you guys going to be selling the whole bike or just the kits?
Kit is on our site link in description
That's so bad ass!
Game changer
whats the best year motor and best year chassis to use?
i own a 89 and 95 500s
Any year engine, allthough earlier ones are all off-idle power.
Dang, Shes a beauty!
U know w modern editing u dont need to show bolts being hammered in w screwdriver
You guys have any steel frames laying around for CR500 you want to sell..89+
I dont at this time
Does anyone do one for a cr250 motor??
We plan to make them for the cr250
