Man, with flips like that, I bet the crankshaft was just standing still, and the bike was rotating around it (not really.)


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?

With Kawi pushing the thumpers, I don't think we will ever see POTO on the smoker.  Don't get me wrong, I would love to see it, but he still needs to tow the factory line.  Yes he's "officially" a member of Pro Circuit, but they are also backed by Kawi.  They're not going to allow their "star" show off the attributes of the smoker when they have warehouses full of bikes they need to sell.

just my $.02

Actually Villopoto is a factory Kawasaki rider along with Chad
Reed.

I agree with you though, I doubt we will see him airing out that
KX.  Wouldn't be good for sales for a manufacturer that doesn't
sell KX 125/250s (at least in the U.S.), anymore.

I would change that to say "a manufacturer that doesn't WANT to sell KX 125/250s"  ;D ;D
