That 70's Thread

Love the pics!! I always wanted either a KX250 with the Uni-Trac rear suspension or a CR250. Ended up with a Maico 250 so that wasn't too bad of a compromise.
Haha, that last pic looks a little like Ric! Man, I gotta dig my photo albums out.

After a 20 year span of not being able to have friends I got divorced and I’m still friends with the guy in the last pic. I regret not getting photos of all of us on our runs and not just our Jeeps. We need to do better about it

Found an old pic of my dad on his 175 with my brother and I on it. Loved this bike. He got rid of this one and got a 350 before I got big enough to ride it.

Damn, those bring back some memories.

Maico? I haven't heard that name in st least 30 years. I wonder what happened to them?

My best friends had Trail 70 and a Trail 90. I never could get a motorcycle until I could buy my own😭

First bike was a Suzuki 250 enduro, mid 70s vintage. Then I stepped up to a second hand, desert race prepped 1978 YZ 400. 😱 Way too much bike when I was only 120#, but I rode the shit out of it.

It was good for about 80+ in 3rd gear, and on the far side of 120 in 5th. My friends car could hit 120, and I could leave him, with me in the weeds off the highway.

Not Maico but we actually had a Hodaka dealer in our little town!
