Since you guys are digging the 1992 WR500, here is a walk around 🔥 Incase you guys missed the build on this bike that we did last year, here is a rundown. This all started when @skillit1time messaged me saying he and his friend had a WR500 in boxes down in California, and that we could have the project to keep if we picked it up. His only request is that we get it together and that I rip it! They already had some of the hard to get parts collected for this bike before we got our hands on it. We sent the frame to American Powder-Coating to get done up, and with help from @motosportinc and @vintco_usa it all started coming together. The engine rebuilt, all the bearings replaced, the wheels and bars sent out to get anodized turquoise to match the bike, @bolt_motorcycle_hardware with all the new bolts, fresh @ridedunlop tires, @renthal_moto goodies, @maximausa fluids in everything, the suspension got a rebuild, @worksconnection clutch perch and lots of cleaning on everything. We had everything ready to go back together, so over Thanksgiving @duanebrown_bbr put in some serious work getting it all buttoned up and ready to rip! Yamaha only made this bike for 2 years (1992/1993) so that @damonbradshaw45 and @doug_dubach15 could race the 500 nationals. Yamaha was worried about sales at the time since big bores were not in high demand, so they sold it as an off-road model (WR) in hopes to sell more of them. Would you guys rather ride this WR500, or a YZ490? @redbullmotorsports @redbull @motosportinc @rdrco.inc @bbrmotorsports #WR500 #yamaha #2stroke #bigbore 🎥: @hondarider007
