1970 Maverick III Mini-Bike - "For the Big Goers" - vintage Gary Bailey print ad

Photo: Gary Bailey, 6'6" giant U.S. motor cycle racing champion, gives the powerful Maverick III a workout over the rough Santa Monica Mountains terrain...after the test, Gary said, "...it behaves like a heavy bike...great power and great brakes." From the small fry to the big guy, Maverick III is the most talked about imported bike on the American mini bike scene...it's rugged with strong construction, it's quick, agile and safe in motion...powered by a 4.5 HP 2-stroke engine...dual brakes, front and rear shocks, and a big comfortable seat...ride it, the champions do. 1970 Maverick III Mini-Bike - "For the Big Goers" Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com CLICK THE PICTURE TO "BUY IT NOW"
