It is really close. The only difference ive notice is the shock canister is mounted on the right side of the frame and the plastic and gas tank are different but the mounts appear to be the same.
I cant beleive you have a sand spider..i wanted one but in florida they had one guy who got a bike and it wasnt me...back then honda just gave you a bike and parts..they called it pro support but my 81 maico was better than the 82 cr480
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..
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
Nice 1984 SC 490. I have two 1986 Gme 500.
Had a 1985 water cooled 500 and 250 Mstar. Wish I kept the 500. Great bike
I really need yo get the 82 250 back together. Like to see the power it has. Have only rode the 83 490 so far
Sounds good
Looks very similar to the sand spider. Good looking bike. I have an 82’ 490.

Who did the restoration? Beautiful bike.
I couldnt tell you. It was the second owner before me. He did a really good job tho.
