1975 MAICO GS400– ALL ORIGINAL SURVIVOR! 134 ORIGINAL MILES, FRAME # 341016, ENGINE # K407112, TWO OWNERS FROM NEW, TITLE INCLUDED, RUNS AND RIDES 96 Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE Maicowerk A.G. was a West German motorcycle manufacturer. Founded in 1926 by Ulrich Maistch as Maistch & Co, the company originally manufactured 98 and 123 cc Ilo two stroke engines. After Worls War II, they began producing their own unit construction two-stroke engines, selling complete motorcycles. Maico made a brief foray into the automobile business with their own line of microcars in the late 1950s. Maico have also made go kart engines. The road motorcycles were named after winds... 'Blizzard', 'Typhoon' etc., but the company was better known for its purpose-built Motocross and Enduro machines, and for its 'Maicoletta' motor scooter, both of which sold in higher numbers than the road motorcycles. Maico Racing Motorcycles: Maico motocross (MC) and enduro (GS) racing models proved very successful in both European and American competition throughout the 1970s. While lacking the financial capital and big money race-team backing like that of the Japanese factories of Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, and Kawasaki, Maico riders such as Adolf Weil, Ake Jonsson, and Willy Bauer proved to be a serious challenge to the Japanese factories and produced numerous top three finishes in the Motocross World Championships. The firm also experienced some success in Grand Prix road racing competitions with rider Borje Jansson winning three 125cc Grand Prix races between1972 and 1973. American publication Motocross Action called the 1981 Maico Mega 2 - 490cc the greatest open-class motocross bike of all time. The 1974.5 400cc and 440cc GP, 1978/79 250cc Magnum and 1981 490cc models along with any year 501cc motocross bike are also some of the most sought-after vintage MX and twin-shock motorcycles to this day. One of the visual modernizations of the Maico off-road motorcycles was the move from a "coffin" style tank in 1974 to a "teardrop" style tank in 1978/79 on bikes like the 250 Magnum. The bikes later moved to plastic tanks in 1980 with the Mega 490. One of the largest contributions to the world of motocross suspension technology came in the 1974 season when the Wheelsmith Motorcycles team in the USA and the Gunther Schier teams in Europe forward-mounted the rear shocks on the Maico factory-backed motorcycles, immediately increasing the travel and ability to trump the competition. This initiated a frantic effort on the part of factory teams and privateers alike; chopping up their frames in a desperate attempt to remain competitive. Maicowerk AG filed for bankruptcy in 1983, but continued to produce small numbers of motocross and enduro models (re-badged as M-Stars in the United States due to legal issues) up through 1986. Subsequent manufacturers have purchased the brand name and applied it to their own limited production motorcycles. Modern open-class dirt-bikes are still being produced under the Maico brandname. The ATK Intimidator dirt-bike (reportedly the most powerful production 2 stroke motorcycle available aside from Maico's own motorcycles) features a Maico motor. After the company went out of business in 1986, its assets were taken over by a Dutch company, but to this day retains a strong cult following. Many riders restore vintage Maicos for display or to take back to the track.

1981 Maico 250. Frame serial is 350xxxx. Engine serial is MT350xxxx. Very little known history. At some point - the top-end was being refreshed. Piston reads 90 (over standard). The top end was never buttoned up correctly (no head gasket) Plan to tear down and inspect. The frame has been re-enforced at the "Y" junction above rear shocks. (Nice job) This is a decent "core" bike - build into a race bike and/or restore. Bike is listed locally. See Pictures ... Ask Questions.

1983 Maico 250 Spider. I have owned this bike for about a year. I heard it run the day I purchased and it has sat since - time to let it go. You are looking at a 32 year old dirt bike - battle scars and bruises included. For the most part , an original bike. The pipe is a "cone" type and thus an aftermarket item. Seat cover is original , decals look original. The frame and engine serials are in line with what is in the Maico registry - so I would think that the engine / frame combo are factory original.

1982 MAICO 490 ,first year single shock motocross bike. I bought this and restored it about 10 years ago with the intention of racing the single shock class. Frame was powder coated, the aluminum Thor swing arm is from the era, the shock is a Fox Shock for the 1982 Maico. It was rebuilt by Mike at SRD Suspension and a spring was made for my weight ( 170 pounds). I added a Wheelsmith brake stay arm with trick adjustment. The plastic was replaced at that time, tank graphics were applied, the side panel graphics were added last week. The forks were bead blasted, new seals and oil. Billet Rage Racing ignition cover, case saver from Maico Only, footpegs are big ones from IMS Racing. At that time I put on a new seat cover, new filter from Vintage Iron is in correct airbox. Cables are the trick steel braided ones from Terry Cable. Aluminum bars with new Magura throttle and new grips. Stock pipe with DG silencer.The carburetor is a 38mm Mikuni. Bike starts and runs through the gears as it should, I have not had the need to open the engine up, it has all the power you'd expect from a 490. The flaws are as follows, ding on front Hallman rim that doesn't seem to effect the rideability. The front cable has some sunburn on plastic coating, appearance only. Engine seeps oil from the right side case, I'll try to replace the clutch cover gasket this week time permitting. The tires will need to be replaced before first race. Please feel free to ask any questions about this motorcycle or payment and shipping. Shipping is buyers responsibility but I will assist in any way I can. $500 immediate deposit by Paypal, balance by cashiers check or cash. Cashiers check must clear before bike leaves my garage. If you are an overseas buyer and have questions please ask, again I will try to assist. No warranty or guarantees , as is. There is no title on bikes of this era in Arizona, please be aware if this is a problem for you.
