The 1982 Maico 490 lives...

BTW, Since this video is in HD you can click "Watch in HD" then you can click the Window Icon (inbetween the Volumne and Up Menu Icons) on the video bar to watch full screen. The Quality will be great (must click HD though).




Got an honor!

  • my dad does auto work, and once a while we do engine swamps. it was a while back he invested in a 4 cylinder for maybe 700 to 900 dollars. The whole engine except exhaust, plastics, intake, small shit like so was painted with silver metalic paint, as to look like no rust nor corrosion. tore the oil pan off it and by god 2 rods was loose as hell. i feel your grief, you really got shited on, i would like to prank call that gay eskimo when i get the chance. what a bastard

  • @kriegdouch haha, ya, thanks. Cant trust anyone these days, I know several people who have bought things that were messed up. Even bikes that ran great when looking at them, however after an hour of riding show that they had problems that weren't noticible when the bike wasnt warmed up.

  • whats the round port/hole on the inlet side high up the cylinder?!!

  • Compression release

see all

  • wow this thing had a compression release, well i would believe it being a big bore motor. so you like push a button or somethn b4 startin it and a way to turn it off? it's how it works for my 61 solex from france... no kill switch. BTW I read your website, Brian's a POS! They're ppl that adore vintage machines that run's and works great today and take pride in them. And their are the douche's that neglects everything from bikes to cars. i mean new decals to sell the bike. ppl are just bastards
