Summary
This 1981 Maico 490 Mega 2 recently underwent a multi-year refurbishment, including an engine overhaul, custom coffin-style aluminum fuel tank, Renthal handlebar, YSS piggyback shocks, and a DEP expansion chamber. The frame, fork sliders, and swingarm were refinished in red, and the seat was re-covered in red and white vinyl. The bike is offered for off-road use only with a bill of sale.
