Was the Magnum tag a Yank thing ? there were hundreds of 78/79 Maicos at events in England at the time ( they were the club mans bike of choice ) but i dont ever remember them being referred to as Magnums ? They are a lovely looking bike and back in the day they seemed to turn an average rider into a better rider due to their great handling, i would love a 250 but they are rare here in NZ .
