Silverbolt is a Maximal in the Beast Era.
Silverbolt, Maximal tracker
"Pure, strong, and fast," Silverbolt's sense of right and wrong is so overdeveloped his fellow Maximals wonder if his programming has a glitch. He speaks in platitudes that speak to chivalry, justice, and cheesy heroic ideals, and he has been known to give speeches that make even Optimus Primal roll his eyes. His conviction is both his strength and his weakness. He sees the world in black and white.
The only gray area for Silverbolt is Blackarachnia. His fierce love for the "evil" Predacon may cause him to question his preconceived notions of right and wrong. The problem when you deal in absolutes is that sooner or later, one will have to bump heads with another. Only time will tell if his moral code can withstand the talons of the cynical universe in which he lives.

Silverbolt's technorganic body from Beast Machines
When the Maximals found themselves back on Cybertron running for their lives from armies of Vehicon drones, their memories of their past had been tampered with. Even Blacharachnia could not remember Silverbolt fully until she hacked into the memory backup on their ship.
Blackarachnia began to suspect that Silverbolt's spark may be inside one of the drones. At first, she erroneously thought it was inside the Vehicon General Thrust, but after a mishap with some technorganic goop, Silverbolt's spark was proven to be inside Vehicon General Jetstorm. For the precious few moments, Silverbolt's consciousness was completely awoken within Jetstorm's body, reverting to his old personality, until the goop was absorbed completely and Jetstorm's shell program reasserted itself.
Obsessed with bringing Silverbolt back, she hounded Jetstorm, demanding he remember their shared love and return to the Maximals. Needless to say, Jetstorm was annoyed by this. But when Rattrap created a gizmo that would help them transfer the stolen Transformer sparks into new bodies, Blackarachnia stole it. Leading Jetstorm into the planet's organic core, she attached the gizmo to his back and trapped the Vehicon in a pool of the technorganic goop with her webs. After much screaming, reformatting, and brilliant light, Silverbolt was reborn.
Counter to Blackarachnia's expectations, Silverbolt was not pleased.
