How to Start The Dnepr (Not Ural) Sidecar in winter?

#Ural #Dnepr #Start

Hi guys! Here is the Dnepr (Not Ural) Sidecar engine start. It was -2F, you may say that is not very cold, but for us it is quite unusual here... And of course I decided to ride this sidecar motorcycle, since the cold winter Start was successful. How to do it? See the video)

By the way follow me on Instagram I have up to date uploads there.

I can relate to long starts when it comes to my KMZ K-750 from '61 😅😅

When it hasn't run in a while, it's colder than usual or it rains it needs a few kicks before starting. Gotta love these bikes. Stubborn, so much fun, unbeatable and so easy to maintain

Hello Denys, I have just discovered these videos (though I have been watching your war update videos faithfully). I'm sorry you are having to live through that and hope life will get back to normal soon. I have just purchased my 13th motorcycle, a 2019 Ural (sorry) and it is proving to be my favourite so far. Thanks for all you do, and Slava Ukraine!

I have a Dnepr K750 from the 60's, when it starts snowing I'll always take her for a ride, starts within the first 2 kicks :) It's fun to ride a sidecar in the snow

It was well worth it.
It now has 79mm pistons, new carbs, and a new ignition and wiring.It's still a pain in the are to start but I love the thing.

I had my 2000 Ural Patrol 650 out in temperatures about freezing today. The engine started second kick with the enricheners out on the Keihin CV carbs, no throttle. One or two kicks is very typical for this bike even in colder weather than this. This model has electric start but I rarely use it because it starts so easily with the kicker, even after sitting for months. The bigger challenge than starting it was getting out to the road through 50 meters or so of 28 cm deep fresh snow. I had to switch in to 2-wheel drive, even with full knobby tires. Great fun driving around my town on snow=packed and icy roads.

When it takes awhile to start, the ride is so much more appreciated. 😉

Absolutely BRILLIANT video and loving the snow ride. We share your warmth in trying to start our bike sometimes :) Best wishes from England.

Great fun and very entertaining and such a reall experience, great stuff I did own an early MT9 with sidecar too on the left hand side for the UK I loved it too!

Hey man! The original manual of the bike gives a starting procedure always filling the carburettor bowls and using choke.
For the helmet look into products like Pinlock or Fogcity. These fit in your visor and make your visor fog free.
Greetings from Belgium!

Fabulous motorcycle adventure, Denys. Thx for making this vid! Sent it to my son in Texas who has a few bikes too.

-22c and riding...you are a legend sir...waiting for a warmer day say -10c...

[kirotodorov]

Your Daddy hasn't been teaching you that first thing before you start engine is a pulling up choke firstly...

[navervagkoll]

I also have MT16 nice now in winter time here in the middle of Sweden :-)

[CornishMotorcycleDiaries]

Just came across this video once again. I wonder what has become of it as you gave the DNEPR to the army so I remember.

[DanielSayles]

Enjoying your videos, I'm hoping to make it to Ukraine again this year to buy a MT12 and ride it back to the UK! Looking forward to more videos from you.

[pederverland]

Always start with the choke! Here in Norway we learning that in driving schools…

[aegrotattoo]

The helmet needs some airflow that is being blocked by the height of your windshield. Like ski goggles, you stop you fog up, you keep moving, all good. Loved the sidecar :)

An all season motorcycle. Future electric motorcycles can only dream of this.

[tetsuclaw]

I could tell it was cold right away by the sound of the snow as you were walking. You only get that sound when getting below -15c.
