Cool Gary, thanks. So, PZ-28, is there a brand name? Mike, do you have any pictures up that I could check out? I do like the thought of a retro style look,...
By angle of the dangle, here's what I mean. See the one on the left (K-301)? That's what originally came on your bike, the one on the right (K-302) came on...
Piece of mind in a Dnepr? Performance??? ... I can get some pictures of the carbs on my bike but check out any Chang Jiang site. On my bike, I got now heads,...
hello everybody. i need to replace my points, or at least know how to set them correctly. i have an mt-9 but the distributer is different than in the manual....
Your picture seems to show a k650 head, with the longer fins. It really isn't much trouble to take off the heads and determine what they are. K650 and mt9...
Sorry if this has been asked before, but are Dnpers still being made? I'm a bit confused as I've read the factory is closed, however there is a Web Site here ...
... The KMZ factory has been "closing down" ever since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Ural importers in the US and Ural owners have been reporting that...
I got this on another group, and thought I'd post it here: If you belong to ANY Yahoo Groups - be aware that Yahoo is now using "Web Beacons" to track every...
I know these things have been discussed but not together or in detail that I could find. Thought I'd put it all together for the next poor shlub searching the...
I have seen people mention Ural wheels on Dneprs before but I have not been able to answer this question with my searching. Is there a Ural wheel that swaps...
You mentioned that you could import one if it's 25 years or older. Does that make a difference for DOT/EPA standards? Mine is "supposedly" 27 years old and...
There is a file here called, Chuckspeed's performance tips that covers that. You use springs from a GM recurve kit, available for about $6.00 at any good auto...
I think you'll find that Chuckspeed suggested something similar in Chuck Speed Performance Tips.doc, in the files section here. Ken Ulrich and others have...
There was a discussion about that at Russian Iron recently. http://www.russianiron.com/forums/ They said that, the wheels are interchangeable. Just curious,...
The problem comes in getting too much advance too soon, which is exactly what was happening. I've retarded onset of full advance and closer to idle it stays at...
I will check out that link. The reason for the straight pull is that I figure there is less chance of fatigue if there is no bend. I could be wrong, but that...
OK Dnepr experts, need some help in identifying what engine I have. Externally it appears to be a MT16 engine, however it apparently has some modifications: -...
... They're car pistons. Might have car conrods on the Dnepr crank or modified Dnepr conrods. Wrist pin is probably 22 mm. IF everything else is OK, get new...
The straight spoke will be subject to more stress due to the fact that is has no "give", the spokes must be torqued to more equal values, than traditional...
Well there you go. That was ultimately me showing my ignorance. Thank you Ken for the valuable info regarding these silly things we like to fix, I mean ride...
My bike is a MT-16, possibly 1984 vintage. It has the K-68 carbs with the plastic cover. Whenever I open my throttle wide the engine dies. Everything works...
I bought new k-68's for mine and it had a similar problem, i ended up putting my old k-65's back on. ... From: Terry Horlick <thorlick@...> Subject:...
You don't have the carbs balanced properly and the "supercharger" probably is covering the symptoms. In fact, you are probably only running off of one side. ...
Sam, You weren't showing your ignorance. Straight spokes such as BMW and Ural used are FAR better than bent spokes on sidecar bikes. Yes they need to be...
Anyone use those carb boots I've seen on old BMW's? The ones that go on the top of the carb and the throttle cable goes through. They are to keep water out. I...
