1. FRAME
The double-down tube frame is made of high
quality chrome moly tubing. The welds are par-
tially welded with the heli-arc principle and par-
tially welded with acetylene and oxygen. Espe-
cially on areas subjected to high stress often
found in moto-cross competition.
2. TELESCOPIE FRONT FORKS
The telescopie forks with hydraulic dampening
have 180 mm of travel. The springs are mounted
externally on the fork tubes and are covered with
rubber fork boots. The hydraulic shocks are moun-
ted in the fork sliders. and have optimal dampe-
ning characteristics:
Each fork tube is filled with 230 cc (7.2 fl. oz.)
of fork oil. The fork tubes are sealed on top with
plugs containing air escape valves. whose proper
functioning is essential.
3. SWINGING ARM - REAR SUSPENSION
The swing arm has a very wide bushing surface
with two rubber-metal bushings. Either Girling
or Koni springs and shocks are available. The
shocks dampening characteristics are especially
developed for Maico.
4. SEAT
The seat is a one-man seat specially fitted and
developed after years of moto-cross sport. Spe-
cial care was taken selecting the composition of
the foam rubber in the seat for maximum com-
fort.
5. FUEL TANK
The fuel tank (fiberglass or aluminium alloy) is
shock-mounted on the frame with soft rubber
bushings. Two petcocks provide a large volume
of fuel flow.
6. FOOT PEGS
The foot pegs are short, spring loaded folding
moto-cross foot pegs without rubber covers.

HANDLE BARS AND CONTROL LEVERS
The handle bar is made of high quality 22 mm (7/8") diameter chromed tubing, strengthened with a
cross bar. The control levers and twist grip are made by Magura. The clutch and brake lever are made
of cast aluminium alloy with a ball on the ends for safety. The twist grip, also made by Magura, is made
of plastic with 80 degress of turning movement with the 36 mm carbo All cables are coated with Teflon
for minimum friction.
