Very Rare 1974 MC250 Vintage MX MotoCross UNRESTORED ORIGINAL

1974 Maico MC250/4 MC MotoCross Last of the true 'vintage' Maicos The suspension revolution was in full combat attack mode and every manufacturer was scrambling with this 'new' technology and trying desperately to stay ahead of their competitors and out do one another. Maico would come out with no less than 5 FIVE models in 2 TWO years!! from 1974 to 1976 a NEW bike was introduced virtually every six months!! and if you weren't racing on the latest & the greatest bike available that particular week, ou were out classed and obsolete. This very rare 74 model was the last iteration of the true short travel MC model line, s the tiny W. German Maico factory was busy preparing the '74.5 GP's for production and distribution. All numbers match each other---frame--both data plates---motor.

This bike is all stick and original with the following exception: grips (Scott), hrottle, acifico plastic replica front fender, ircle Industries gas cap.

At the time Wheelsmith was the sort of unofficial US development arm of Maico. They made parts to improve performance and reliability of Maicos and sometimes got advance samples of production parts and some works parts and the like from Germany. This Bike has some of those WheelSmith parts, brake arm, xhaust and WheelSmith foot pegs.----and possibly other wheelsmith parts.

VERY HARD to find these bikes unmolested and original as production numbers were extremely low, nd also due to many owners chopping up their frames and moving up the shock positions trying to make them competitive with the later bikes.
