As much as I like watching four-stroke riders flail about, it'd be nice if he hadn't dropped anchor right in the middle of the racing line.  Thou shalt drag thy bike out of harm's way.

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.

Maybe he would have had a better day if his bike would start as easy a smoker, one kick and bang, back in the race! ::)

There's just too much that can be said about that video, but I did hear the sound of a 2 stroke a few times

I remember watching this video for the first time and thinking that exact thing.

My favorite part was when he was trying to start his bike and a 2 stroke came by and roosted him

Man that kid sucked, worse than me! Like he stalled the bike so many times when he could have pulled in the clutch and saved it

How much you want to bet he drives an Automatic (if he has his license yet)?

Aw hell.  You have no idea how much I want a stick-shift Dakota.  I've been trying to hunt one of those down for two years now, but I'm still stuck cruising around in a Ford Windstar, with an automatic that refuses to stay in third gear for more than a second and a half.  Good torque from the motor, but life is too short for front-wheel-drive.

Ahh yes... Automatics, truly the lazy man's way of going about things. One time I had someone say to me that they wanted to buy an automatic dirt bike so that they can focus more on hill climbing and not shifting gears...

Well, I think he's looking at a one-horse-race in the automatic dirtbike market.



They say the Auto was a real Mud King with great traction.  They also say it was like the Grim Reaper whenever the rider encountered a downhill, and riders developed hand cramps because their left hand just stayed in one position for hours on end without doing anything.

Hey Rokon made automatics in the 70's. A Husky Auto, a steep downhill and wet drum brakes? No thank :o
