DNEPR is a motorcycle brand produced in Kyiv, Ukraine, since 1967 and the original design was taken from the pre-world war 11 German BMW motorcycle R71, which the Soviet Union, then licensed in 1940.
This fully Military sidecar, being Model MT10, was the very first Soviet Motorcycle to feature 12 volt electrics and is most famous for its “off-Roading” rugged, capabilities, with its powerful 650cc OHV Boxer Twin Engine.

This motor-cycle, has become a personal passion of ours and literally, no expense has been spared, in “building-up” it, to what it is now today-complete with every conceivable military extra that is possible to adapt.

It has appeared at many various shows/ events and draws much attention, whenever it appears, and whilst there are so many extras to list, the photos and the history file, which are all available to any new owner, tell all.

If you would like to know more and view our private collection, where it forms part of, any trial, is most welcome, to be able to appreciate, all that it now offers as it’s certainly one not to be missed and will be very difficult to repeat again as it’s probably very unique.

On the button and available immediately, this will save you, literally years of hard work and can be ridden away, today, to all admiring glances.
