 If you have ridden. nbsp;raced. or raced against a 490 you know that even in stock configuration it ruled the roost.   It is considered the "Best open class bike ever" by Motocross Action magazine.  There are tons of cool modifications and aftermarket goodies for this bike if that's your thing.  but if you want the real McCoy. this stocker rocks and holds more historic value.  Built in consultation with Rage Racing. this original style restoration was built to look like it just rolled out of  the Maico factory.
