1978 Maico 250 - $2,500 (Dewey)

1978 Modified Maico 250.
1981 front forks modified to 1978 specs.
Fresh 1981 engine reed valves and carb-w/choke.
I think WERKS rear shocks (see photo).
1979 plastic.
52 tooth rear sptoket, very fast.
Problems, honest.
The kick starter will not return without help.
I know what the problem is, the return spring has a sharp edge on it and needs to be filed off.
2nd issue, the left rear shock started leaking today.
It has not been started in 10 years, i guarantee it will start.
Carb needs cleaned after all these years.
It will qualify for vintage racing.
