Ultra rare Maico SC500This ARMA legal. Close ratio 5-speed out performs my '83 490 4-speed Spider due to its slightly higher gear ratio. It gets better traction and about a 2 bike length advantage to the first turn. The suspension has just been rebuilt - the forks are re-hard chromed, new bushings and seals, new .45 springs, and gold valve emulators with 20wt. oil. They are perfect. The rear shock has also just been rebuilt with all new internals, and stiffer spring set up for a 180 lbs. rider. All new top end. Carb has also been rebuilt with new jets. The wheels have new rims, spokes, and bearing seals. The tires are Dunlop MX 51 front and rear new chain and sprockets, chain sliders are new. I installed a V-force reed, new air filter and carb boot. The stock pipe is perfect. Custom made silencer, new linkage bearing bushings and seals. The plastic is original except for the front fender, which was slightly faded, so I changed it out. I still have the original. As you can tell from the pictures the bike is in perfect condition. If you can keep the front end down you'll win every race.Or it will make a great addition to your collection. This bike came out of Canada a couple of years ago when I bought it, it was an all-original, excellent condition bike. I raced as it was for one season. Then completely rebuilt it and it hasn't been ridden since. No fuel has been put in the gas tank. Thanks for looking! Wade 661-201-4011
