1970 Maico MC 250 MX engine complete motor
Rare opportunity to buy such a rare motor complete like this.
Includes 36mm Bing carb (for Maico), original points ignition, intake manifold, kicker, & NOS aluminum shifter lever which is not correct for this motor, but is in new condition.
This is the T274 prefix close-ratio motocross engine
This motor has been sitting inside of a storage shed in Wyoming for 37 years. It is currently STUCK but I have oil in cylinder and hopefully I can loosen it up. Please see photos of top of cylinder for numerical markings there. Transmission seems to shift freely up and down.
Please note the bent (but not broken or cracked ) fins on cylinder and head. No cracks noted in any of the engine cases. Dome of cylinder is very clean with no broken ring marks or damage of any kind.
Use ebay's zoom feature and look at photos closely please.
