WE BUILD A CHAD REED REPLICA FC450…AND YOU CAN TOO (VIDEO)

On Jul 3, 2018 Last updated Jul 25, 2018

We took our stock 2018 Husqvarna FC450 and enlisted the help of Mitch Payton, Mike Gosselaar, Wayne Hinson and Technical Touch to build a complete factory replica of the bike that Chad Reed raced in the 2018 AMA Supercross this season. It has a works cam, Kayaba coil spring kit forks, Hinson clutch, special black box and Mitch Payton magic in the engine. Yes, there is a small amount of unobtainium in this build, but with over 63 horsepower it is the ultimate project. You could have read all about this bike in the July 2018 issue of MXA—where it was on the cover and featured prominently inside.
