Ricky Poq Hi Ricky yes also had the pleasure of watching Herbie Schmitz before he passed on and what a rider, but thanks for your comment and thanks for watching.

Thanks James That's possibly the main reason I'm going through my archives due to being confined to home, as normally at this time of year I would be doing the rounds at Classic and Vintage race events collecting new material for my channel. Thanks for your Comments and thanks for watching.

Yeah I’m on the east coast about a hour from Budds Creek mx track and our first race of the season for vintage mx is first weekend of April but it’s canceled and they don’t even have the track open for practice so if you don’t have any land to ride on I sir home and watch your videos and old races

When I was a kid everyone was racing Honda, Yamaha, mostly and I always have to be different, but this was late 60s and early 70s and I used to watch the Europeans come over here to the USA riding Bultaco, Maico CZ and loved to watch them race, I wanted to race in Europe so bad because everyone that went over there came back so much faster, anyway I raced Bultaco and ended on a Maico then when I hit my second childhood I went back to Maicos

lmtada Thanks Imtada and thanks for watching my content.

Derek Warren In what way do you mean Derek ?

Cable is on the same side as the lever..right side. From maico that way

Derek Warren Hi Derek the Maico’s front brake assembly at least up to the late 70’s was generally run down the right hand side of the bike although at the start of the 1980’s they began to made longer front forks which increased the cable movement. Although the Maico brake can be made to fit the left hand side of the wheel although you will need the longer brake cable and a later 1980’s brake torque arm. This is not done in every Maico case as riders chop and change this feature if and when required but up to 1979 the right hand side was the standard brake fitting side for these bikes. Hope this is clearer for you . . and thanks for watching.
