You know... I didn't look at this closely enough before posting it. I didn't realize that it was a four-stroke!

Oooooppppss!  :o :o

It's still cool.  It'd be cooler if the cylinder was made of clear plastic.  Four-strokes may be heavy and lethargic, but their internals are fun to watch.


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?

I had one of these when I was a young boy... my dad helped to build it (which means I watched!! LOL) It ran and I would watch it for what seemed like hours, watching the pistons go up and down, the cam turning, the valves opening and closing.





It's called the visible V8 and it really helped me to understand how engines actually worked. What a fun way to learn!!

yep,it is a 4junk and not a Suzuki.Figured he would still be riding an rmz 4junk.There was nothung like watching him at the dilla in 03 on the cr250.He was wringing every bit out of that thing that he could chasing Windham on the 4t.

That video is of an 450 honda (2009), it is not RC.  The rider is Ryno and shows some related video's that you can see the name of the jersey.....................they are neat to watch but no ride...........Rooster

Unfortunately, you forgot to plead the fourth and now the title of this thread is exhibit A.  Sorry pal, but it looks like you're up 4T creek without an electric start.
