So.......the secret of the legendary Maico steering is finally revealed. 1" travel in the front forks and 8" travel at the rear equates to a pretty sharp steerer :o You'd need a lanyard on the back of ya dacks to keep from sliding off the front though..............
WANTED. Canams;all models,complete or parts.SWM stuff too!

Been there, done that. Why buy that little psychedelic mind fu#k when I've got a couple of way more desirable Maicos in the waiting room, besides I'm still living the DT1 dream, loving that I can buy parts for bar change. ;D
