It would appear yes. We will confirm shortly.

97 Xr400 with a 440 kit, and BSR42 carb, revalved suspension by the previous owner. More than enough power and it’s smooth and linear. Some days I have a crisis and want to sell it and get a yz250fx, but this XR never lets me down.

Bought an 18 Beta 430 in April 22 and loving it! All stock with minor emissions delete stuff.

By the time I got into vintage racing back in 2000 there weren't many Phantoms around and Maicos were plentiful and had great support so that's what I picked up. I moved from San Antonio back...

Great to see these and it mirrors my experiences from the '80s and '90s - thanks for sharing. Skip Norfolk was the best. Every time I'd show up at a national or SX I'd search out the Honda truck. At one point I was just watching him do his thing and he looked up and engaged me in conversation. We chatted for a while, I asked some technical questions, had some small talk and he invited me into the area where they were working.
