when you post click on "Addittional Options" down the bottom left corner and then choose your file from your hard disk, file must be 128Kb or less to upload, good luck !

Yes there are better ones on our website . I just have not worked out how to upload correctly.
They are either to big or to small :-[

air filter?
i'm sure is the finest grade of fly screen.
i'd love to see the other side of the bike and check out the pipe.
it looks about as big as the filter.

Although I've never owned any Maico, I reckon the 440MC (1980 or 81???) was one tough looking bike. I remember the test in ADB with Ross King flexing his "muscles" next to the fork legs.
Anyone got a copy of that test or mag to sell?
I can't remember the exact issue but if you've seen it, you'll remember it. Nov 81 maybe????

I agree with the bloke who started this thread; that Husky 390 is pure hornbag! ;)
Adolf Weils mid 70's works Maicos also appeal to me.
They weren't as 'sexy' as some of the others but they looked functional and industrial; I think it was the bare metal coffin tanks that did it.
Sorry - no image of Adolfs bikes as I'm new to this and haven't figured out how to upload piccys.

You're a man of good taste  ;D

Two ways
1/ go reply, go to additional options, post as an attachment.
2/ download to a photo web site like photo bucket, down load your image to photo bucket, open reply on ozvmx, type in [img]the photobucket link [x/img]  (but no 'x', i'm fooling the computer).
