are you talking about the Keith Stacker bike built in Melbourne with the Honda Top End on it or was it a Maico prototype ?

G'day Jeremiah  ;) i saw these pics awhile back posted here i think, no info i just did a google search and found them. i think Firko knows more as he has a Mate in Germany who is a Maico collector.

I found some images of this bike once before.  It would appear to be made by an Italian company Fresco.
