Title: Kostler Maico
Post by: ford832 on July 27, 2012, 12:40:05 AM
So a guy on another site is interested in the big bore.I mentioned Kostler and he wanted a link but I can't get anywhere.When I click on Kostler Bikeworld I get kicked back to the google search page.When I tried Maico madness and other enthusiast site links,I end up on an advertising site.What's the scoop?If it's this difficult to get any info,I can't imagine why anyone would want to bother. ???

The anglicized version of Kostler with an umlaut is Koestler.

Can you get on it?I tried both ways and google gives me a list of search results for Kostler or Koestler Bikeworld but whenever I click on any of them I get taken back to the google search page.

Thanks but no dice on opfermanmotors' site either.When I try the bikeworld.de site I get taken to a homepage but when I click on the Maico emblem I get taken back to google. :(

You're not paying attention to the groundhog are you :P  No,it's not me but I wouldn't mind if he bought a 685-not that I'd want to try it of course  ::)
I went through IE and got a link that worked.Thanks guys.

Neither of those links work through google for me and the one I posted to the other site yesterday worked fine but today sends everyones antivirus crazy-including mine so I removed.F... it,that's the end of my Maico searching.Good riddance. :)

You'll just have settle for a lowly Yamaha I guess.

Lol,maybe but surely there's something to be said for be able to find info on a new bike-or to actually find that new bike for that matter. :P

Somethings definitely up with the Kostler website, it usually works without issue.
I tried it about a week ago to look for some parts and had no problems.

Maybe and this is a big maybe, the battle with Maico International for the names rights are getting sorted out which means its effected the content they can have on their site?

The http://maico-bikeworld.de/ has always worked for me & I've never had any problems @ all....It must be that the site only works for the Maico faithful... ;) The German built Maico faithful that is.Lol.... :P

It's strange how Ford is clearly anti Maico and the Koestler site won't work for him.  ::)

Post by: ford832 on July 30, 2012, 11:06:29 PM
The link works,it just contains malware,like lolerbabop said.Besides,I'm not anti-Maico,I'm just anti-hype,anti-bullsh!t,anti-outright lie,anti-ridiculous statements..etc....oh,I guess I am then.Right you are Sachs. :)

That's twice now we've been in agreement Ford. A little more therapy and you just might be ready to ride a Maico. :D
