I've got TWO that I could be persuaded to let go of at that price!

Not sure if this is the right place for this but it seems pertinent. There is a dude named James Veitch who jacks with scammers in a major way and is worth checking out. Another guy stalks and out scams the scammers. What amazed me was not the general asshattery and all, it was the fact that this g...

Ha ha ha .... one careful owner

Looks good !!! ... you've got a decent project there !!!

Ran when parked, no doubt.

(The Arabic date painted on the tires when last changed was 1968, so it had been parked for almost 40 years when I found it.)

Had I stayed in Texas after my last Iraq trip in 2007, it would've been finished by the end of 2008. But, the Army made me move and now the workspace in my garage looks more like... https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/81096574_10156892567179142_2978754136981372928_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&_nc_ohc...

It appears to be an M-72M with the engine and forks from a K-750M donor bike. I say this because it has an M-72 sidecar light and headlight. It has an IMZ/Ural M-72M fender and fork shrouds. It has wider M-72 (all models except KMZ/Dnepr M-72N) inverted lever bars than the first generation K-750 (an...

Do it yourself.
Don't be scared!

What's wrong with it???

These ones: Screenshot_20191029-201905_eBay.jpg Item number: 292696047692 Those look pretty sweet! I might have to get a set for my '59 M-72M.

K-750M's are the most common K-750's and have a longer frame that would accommodate your longer gearbox. Nope. ALL K750 had short frame. Long frame came out with the introduction of the MT9/MT804 in !971-72. Any flathead with a long frame is an MT12 using the frame from the MT10. K750m came out abo...

Ditto everything Dneprlover said. It's an early 1958 - 1962-ish short frame K-750 (or maybe a military K-750B I think it was called?) with the wrong front forks, engine, gearbox, non-original tank, etc. K-750M's are the most common K-750's and have a longer frame that would accommodate your longer g...

I have been trying to track him and/or his son Lorne down for the last seven years without any results.
I'd love to have my engine back in any condition...

If it's a real one, it's the best military bike KMZ/Dnepr ever made.
Good luck...

Weak battery???

Don't ask how I know...

There's a couple things that can go wrong. 1. Either the primary or secondary windings can go open, or 2. The primary or secondary winding shorts to itself. In automotive applications, primary to secondary is probably around 1:100, so for instance, in the event that that coating rubs off the wire at...

The float valve O-rings on my K-68's went about six months apart from each other. I replaced both of them with the O-rings in a Bic lighter. They have lasted longer than the originals...
