'Refer photos to see motorcycle before disassembled and parts for sale'
So when he 'disassembled it', he lost a lot of the decent bits and threw dirt over the rest?

Absolutely. I was going to hit buy now but, it's not even the same bike, tank, forks, seat etc all from a different bike. Not sure if it's just my computer but I can only zoom in on the parts and not the bike. Sounds suss.
Let's face it some dirt bikes were never meant to be ridden.

Junk indeed, but I still reckon someone will snap that junk up simply because of that "prestigious" brand. And then sincerely regret it  :D

You'd really have to need a Maico to pay 1.5 large for that lot. For a start the '80 model isn't anything close to the '81 model as far as 'prestige' but if you're blind and crazy enough to think that the complete bike shown in the photo and the pile of crap laying on the driveway are one and the same, you deserve to own it.

He's got 800 bucks on a 72/73 frame too.....way over market value. For a brief moment I thought the seller pauld2311 was you Paul but quickly recalled your eBay name is Maico something or other. Sorry mate.

We're all strange in our own ways but the seller of that bike is a strange, strange, very hard to deal with man.
