Awsome track, great sound.
Also shows the perils of alloy frame conversions. :o
Even footage of the rarest of rare birds......a modern Maico. No 2 with orange gear.

I like how no one recognizes this.  I think this was one of the first videos to be posted in this section.  I favorited it on YouTube about 25 years ago.  And yes, #2 is on a Maico, you can tell by the way the pipe is "backward."

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?

Looks like that CR500 engine vibrated itself free.

It's crazy how powerful those 500s look. With just barely any throttle opening those bikes move forward hard!
