Bike ID please
« on: June 09, 2019, 10:30:29 AM »
This is on the t-shirt my missus returned from holiday with for me. I've no idea what she is - the motorcycle, the motorcycle!  ::) ;D

Front end looks very like a Ural M63/M66 or Dnepr MT10 but can't see the rest well enough to be sure.  :-\

Def old Ural - you can see the seam around the tank and the oil filter housing (just). Got to be an M66 as the M63 didn't have the oil filter housing and M67 didn't have the high mudguard...... ???..... :-[............God I must be really sad!!!!!...... :'( :'(



If you want me to be really really sad I could mention that it looks like it's been retro fitted with a Dnepr full width alloy hub...... :'(..........I'll get my coat................sorry.........anorak..................

.......though it could possibly be a Dnepr MT9 fitted with a Ural tank.............

Many thanks, Steve. Nice bikes, both of those. The t-shirt proclaims I've been on a, "Chrome Classic Tour", so I'm well chuffed!

Steve, you're all over it! I too recognised it as a Ural or Dnepr, but not with anywhere near your level  of knowledge  :)
