Yes but if you look at the top of the page jetz, Opfermanmotors says pre 98'

Ok, here is a thought experiment.  Let's say that at the Pala race today they declared that you can race a 2 stroke up to 500cc but it must be era correct and made before the rule change (i.e. Pre ~1998).











If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

I know, it's technically allowed, I'm not arguing against that.  It's just that, if you're going to make a vintage dream team, it doesn't make all that much sense to roll out a bike that's just a few years shy of the two-stroke development cut-off point.  At that point, you might as well put Bob Hannah on a new KTM 300.


Is this Maico a 440 or only a 400?  Well in all the confusion, I forgot myself.
But considering this is a 1978 Magnum, the best-handling bike in the world, you have to ask yourself one question.
Do you feel lucky, punk?
