What a lovely bike and rebuild as always.👍 I remember those bikes in GP:s Ruskeasanta Finland. Sound of those bikes were so nice, bit like Maico if I remember correct. Those were the days...

Not sure that they were that reliable! There can't have been many of them around even in the day. One of the few was ran by friends of ours, the Maughlings of Supersprox fame. DJ the son rode it as Roger the old man got a deal on one. He must have DNF'd more than they finished which was a shame as there's no doubt the bikes were a trick piece of gear for the time. Pretty sure '85 500 Maicos were water cooled too with front disc.

I was forced to give up in 91, I got to Schoolboy nationals (uk 100cc) then my dad couldn't get me out to a track anymore than once a week on race days and I needed to be riding 3-4 times a week at least, so ended up stopping racing. Biggest mistake.

Incidentally I couldn't watch racing until last year and only found out we won mxdn then lol.

you should try clear cerakote on the frame... there is a air dry formula, works great on preserving the frame.
