Is'nt TSM doing a 2010 MAICO test?
« on: March 27, 2010, 05:40:29 PM »
I check TSM's site everyday because I'm practically dying to see the new 2010 MAICO tested! I would also like to know how much they will cost if & when they get to the United States?

Come on, the puppy needs a comprehensive test.



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?

Well I do know both the International distributor and the new American distributor... I may be able to get one to test...

... but you know the one thing I would need is a few test riders, do you know anyone that might be interested in riding around on a new bike. I know... it's a horrible thing to ask, but someones got to do it! :D
Life is short.

I bet the Maico would love riding @ Glen Helen :p :D Oh look, I live 1 mile from it and ride there every week. What a coincidence. :)

It's times like these when I wish I wasn't over on the west coast.

No wait, scratch that.  It's times like these when I wish everyone else was smart enough to ALSO be on the wonderful west coast.  There we go.

Of course, I wouldn't be much use in testing its merit as a motocrosser, but if someone's curious to know how well it takes trails and fast desert roads, I'd be the man.  It's a job that takes good low-speed control, lots of power, and flexible gearing.  The 685 would be so damn perfect.
