I don't know how familiar you are with Maicos, but I can tell you a little bit about it just from the picture.
A #1, it's pretty, I like it, and I want one. That being said: It's just a pig with lipstick.

That frame and engine are directly from 1991 when they made some minor tweaks to their bikes, colored them blue, and put "modern" looking plastics on them. I think it was mostly just a subframe change to fit the rear piece, seat and new tank and shrouds. I'm not saying it isn't cool, or isn't worth whatever they're charging, but it is not new technology in the least. I'm sure it's reliable, and it has some really sweet stuff on it.

I'll take one in 700cc please.

Should be available in:
250cc
320cc
500cc
550cc
620cc
700cc
All two strokes! Oh yeah baby, smell the premix.

I remember Danny "McGoo" Chandler riding a Maico. He is probably responsible for inspiring what eventually led to the Xgames.


I think I just gave away how extremely old I am.
