NOS tires are still available, I know a shop in Edmonton Alberta that had about 15 brand new 2.75x21 metzlers and probably still has them,
$25,000 doesn't seem unreasonable for a bike that rare, I see post's on here lot's of times about 81 490 Maico's for over $10,000 and they aren't exactly a rare bike

If I had a spare $25K, it would be on the boat.

The chamber on that Puch is original, I would say it would have internal baffles.

     The Silencer is built into the End of the Expansion chamber see the bump on it ..

For those of us who hadn't even started school when it was built, can we get a bit of history/specs on it  :D

Great bike and like the rest of you I would buy it in heart beat given the right circumstances. It is a real shame they didn't continue this model.

Another VMX project I have stashed away  (Maybe will do  ::)) Is a Kawasaki Avenger 350cc with twin rotary disk induction. Might even have a Bridgestone twin rotary induction still somewhere too.
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
