Man !!! The thought crossed my mind.
It's a bargain!!!!!
A real nice bike but I think it is way to much for me!!!!(power that is)

I want to give pre 85 a run next year on the 125 and the 250 you put me on to. (that is one nice bike too! Thanks again for the tip)

Good luck with the Nats and see you at lakes

This ones market value...
Ive seen a few 84s this year go between $3,500 to $4,500.
Mind you the ones going around the $3500 don't have brand new Excel rims and stainless spokes..

And if that one was spot on and I wanted a CR 500 I would gladly pay that for it.

Believe me I know exactly how much it costs to build a bike properly.

He's the President of Penrith ( Nepean ) dirt track. I got a carton for my trouble. Not bad, $25 a bike from Brisbane to Sydney. I'm giving up building ;D

Well that explains the dirt tracking then :)  Mate at $25 it must have been a carton of coke :)  ... and what do they say mate?? Oh yeah.. don't give up your day job :)

You been to Mudgee yet? :P :P :P :P

No but I've got a transport guy doing the deed for me.  He is also bringing up my Suzuki GT750 Water bottle.  As a comparison to your $25 carton of coke charge for the same trip, he is $350 ...... I really wish you could of grabbed it for me .. would have saved me a shipload of money  ;D  ;D  But I am grateful for all the stuff you have done for me in the past Ted so many many thanks for all those things mate :)

Roy Gay's been riding Maicos for years in both MX and DT but seems to be limiting his racing to DT these days. He's been getting beaten on his Maicos in recent times by a couple of quick 465 Yamahas and CR500's so it seems he's gone horsepower hunting.

Well the YZ250H I sold him does not lack HP .... very quick little Evo bike and he has also secured a YZ465 as well.  I hope he enjoys his new purchases  ;D

It'll be good to get that YZ250 onto a dirt track and away from all those pesky trees you find near MX tracks.

Yeah thanks Paul  ;D ;D My wife had named that bike "Christine" as it did it's best to kill me every time I took it out (which is not the real truth but I'm not game enough to correct her at the moment . I already have one arm in a sling  ;D )

Over the years I have seen that mag go for well over $200 ???

That's good to hear Andrew. The prices will never go up if people fire sale them. Your bikes are very good

I have put a few guys onto your 250 G. Any luck with that?


I have two big bores here that I may never ride again. I will never sell them. My one year old grandson can have them.
