VAPE Ignition Maico 250 - 440 2-Shaft - Bosch Magneto DC
electronic ignition system for Maico 250 400 440 - 2-Shaft - with Bosch Magneto
Magnet based generator with integrated solid state ignition. Light output 12V/100W DC. Replaces complete original Bosch Magneto in Maico GS / MC 250 - 440 built between 1976 and 1977.
Notes:
- Engines the system is made for can be recognised by the fact, that the rotor (flywheel) is fastened by a screw (and not a nut).
- Is frequently confused with system 71 38 799 AC which replaces Bosch Dynamo or Kröber magneto variants.
- There are engines where aftermarket cranks of the later 3-shaft Maico has been installed - here the rotor will not fit!
- For offroad use we offer an alternative AC system (does not support battery and flasher) that is smaller and lighter.
- Technical information on the correct selection of the ignition system for Maico: Maico types
Advantages of new system:
- all parts are new
- more light output
- very stable ignition with solid spark
- better starting, better fuel burning
