Magnificent 7

Dartyppyt, was this the test ride?

Sears Point maybe? '78ish?

Not sure...just a picture I stumbled across on the web.

That may have been Danny Chandler. He was riding Maico back then

oh yeah, no doubt that is Magoo alright. Pretty much how he always got off the bike.

Good pics, but that had to have hurt!

I've always wanted one because of the stylish craftsmanship that went into them.

Now having one in person and looking at everything. Kinda cool!

To me it was all the euro bikes that stood out.

I think Oldbikedude is lookin at Maico pics and wanting one!

Plan this weekend is to do up one of the Husky forks using the existing lettering and fox colors.

But I need a bigger oven so I'm looking for a larger smoker slash electric oven.

OBD!

Here you go!

How did you find that old footage of me? What can I say...I like big fins

your Maico is loading up. probably bad reeds- if it has any at all. ...and put a new B8ES in it.

You're dead right TC, Maicos didn't get reed valves until 1981.

That's not really me in the video. But I'm taking notes.

That's funny! OBD!

Here is the fork?

Yeah, well I don't think anyone was fooled by your obviously fake Sgt. Schultz accent, fake euro license plates on those fake euro vehicles, with those obviously fake giggling girls.... we know it was you.

you like big fins, huh? Sounds like the start of of a Sir-Mix-a-Lot rap [google it if you're over 50]

I like what you're doing with the Maiqvarna... but that white on the fork is a little out of place.

Why did you not continue the Fox stripe all the way down- too hard to do around the cast-in letters?

Nice work as always.

No, I can go down through the cast letters. Prob, is you can't read the Husqvarna lettering very good, in tri color and even black lettering. Trying to capture, the fox fork colors.

Next weekend have nother concept to do on the other fork.

Not easy cause that's eight hours of work and baking finish on.

looks ex to me

I like it too. However the silver fork and red lettering would look good on any bike... how'd you do that again?

For now this is what I'm going with.
