Nice. Love the 70's and 80's Dodge trucks. She's in really decent shape. I have a 78 D-150 with an unfortunate cracked frame by the steering box.

Great bike enjoy!

Nice engine

Sweet heart old truck ! Hope you still have it and drive it :-)

i saw that on marketplace i think

I was an apprentice at Maico and the owner of an MC 440. Due to the expected Kickstarter setback, we had a different starting procedure. Tilt the motorcycle slightly on its side, step on the kick starter with your right foot and then, hopefully in time, let your foot slide backwards off the kick starter immediately after the step. We were always warned that some US boys broke their foot while kicking a Maico 😉

Great Video...Great Truck!!!

MAICOS ARE JUST PLAIN-ASS ""BAD-ASS"" BIKES,,PERIOD . AND A BLAST TO RIDE! TURNS,,,RIDE UP ON THE TANK LIKE YOU WOULD ON A GOOD OL" CR 125,,, THE REST,,, JUST HANG ON FOR DEAR LIFE AND ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! . PURE LOVE.

Like a new KTM but better, music to my ears lol

how much different it is compared to stock one? just ordered a silencer for my exc 250 -13, later on the full pipe maybe. :D

You have to "tickle" the bing carb! My Dad owned 11 Maico's. Use your two fingers to block each of the overflow hoses on the carb. Then depress the black drain / tickle button to flow fuel into the carb. Should then only take 3 kicks at max to start.

no woman..

Loving the progress so far 👍 keep it coming

Beautiful

You've obviously never tried to start to make go before you have to use your right leg stand on the left side of the bike you'll never start it like that

Man when I was a kid growing up and that bike first came out I always wanted it now I'm jealous somebody else has it😮👍👍👍😁

“I’m trying to keep this cheap” Buys a 400$ exhaust

You have to flood big two stokes by laying them over. You can see why many ankles and kick start get broke. Motomadandy 62 old school mx😂

Bass ackwards

Absolutely respect to anyone who can start one of these things with their left leg!

Very nice!!

I think der Germans should have hooked up with the Japs in the 80s to keep upgrading their scooters. Its a shame, My 84 Cr500r was technically superior to those bikes..shulda, woulda, coulda.🤷‍♂️

Fast forward to 4:00 you’re welcome

Those bikes were so very far ahead of their time and the rest of the bikes of that time period it was crazy.

Neon Yellow Plastic kit,looks sick....UFO?Acerbis? Or Racetech? Thanks 👊💨💨

Love the Big Bore Beast.

I'm going to the kitchen for a sandwich..........Let me know when he gets it fired!!

cool to see you get that old Iron out there.... Like you said for her age she rips. can tell it doesn't take much to get the wheel light. 👍

I need to buy and older dirt bike and rebuild it for fun, like I used to do out of necessity

That's my stomping grounds

Who is this ???

That's one mean mochine

Great Vid, nice riding, you can tell the suspension is smooth! 👍

always starts on the 10th kick, never got the left side kick?

that thing is a GROSS polluter!

I had the 81 250 and 490 …. Jap killers ..!!!

The red dream!!! Whhaaa que bella!!👏👏👏😀 Richard d'la Yaute👍😎🇫🇷🏁

I had a 1980 model , you had to lay it over till gas ran out of the carb overflow tube then kick

The rear suspension stinks on that year. Twin shock set up much better . You ride it so good

But nothing that thing is sexy

You mentioned its age in the famous words of Capt Pete Mitchell it’s not the plane it’s the pilot!

That bike is ganna be worth twice as much as a ktm one of these days. I bet you’d get just as much for one parting it out. Nice bike

Where’s your case saver due

Just Google everything u need to know about the bike including what parts it takes❤

Who did the restoration? Beautiful bike.

My bad the 82s were breaking the story was it caused the company to go bankrupt...a member of the family got 3rd in the world championship 250 class named hans maish i think i might have spelled it wrong

Youre 83 would bust the frames if youre fast...shock ..the reason we didnt get those was they were a failed company..i had a yz490 with a broc glover top end and pipe ohlins crome bore...dominated on that as well..but my heart was allways with maico..

Back then in 86 these trucks would go past 500 thousand miles dudes on the nationals

Dude youre having all the fun...

Tighten bolts constantly...dude you were fast and looked like me
