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

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

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!

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 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

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

Love the crunchy snow sounds

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.

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!

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

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

This man likes his army green. 😅

Omg, so cold, SO GREAT! Love it!

Such a great looking machine.

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!

Why no choke the first try?

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

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

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

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.

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 :)

Nice Bike Buddy!!!!

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.

Looking good my friend

I am a big motorbike fan and driver, and I really like these videos

Kind of old world war 2 Ukrainian BMW) as far as I remember it's history. The condition is superb. You did it pretty well.

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

Wonderful driver and motorcycle!

Is there a way to "quickly" remove and install the sidecar on these bikes? Maybe with some kind of clever hardware which allows for quick fastening and removal??

..fearlesss in the snow!

Very nice bike and video

I just watch lots of your videos, super cool..

was the thing at Neutral during the kickstart attempt? If it was at neutral, once started, let out some more gas and it will be fine ☺️

Awesome bike I like it and awesome video🎥

I love it

So you have to tickle the carbs and use the choke…just like every time you start her.

I have one,the technique of starting it was learnt after i broke my foot trying😂

hello denys, can you explaine the difference between a dnepr and an ural please?

Nice bike!!!

cool,nice to see you here!!Slava Ukraine!!Very nice,we actually have these in Florida.Great Demo.

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.

How many degrees celcius ?

😂 i can tell it is very cold from the sound of the squeaky snow and ice beneath your boots

Добрий день Денис. Отличное видео, но у меня вопрос касательно подключения jbl extreme 2 к Вашему VTX 1800. Интересует каким образом решили вопрос с зарядкой.

Hi, what model is this with a swinging arm front suspension?

Hello i love the video and have a question i am in the process of geting a licence for motorcycles and Dněpr K-750 is my dream bike so i am dead set on geting one as my first bike do you or anyone else have any must knows or any pointers that are good to know? Also where i live there is a passionate comunity that works with old bikes so geting someone to teach me how to do maintanence and eventually repairs shouldnt be a problem

You did a great job building your bike. I have a 2019 Ural Gear Up, love that little Russian pack mule. Where did you get your luggage rack for the sidecar trunk? The racks on the Ural are thin and flimsy.

Great ride. You can buy a snowmobile helmet with heated visor. Or a face mask that defects your breath down and away from the visor. I'm in northern Ontario Canada, lots of snowmobiles here and fogging visors is always a problem.

Feels so good when you get a bike going in the cold. Takes so long sometimes.

Where can I get one this nice?

Im wondering how your suppose to pronounce Dnepr. In the UK we say it like D- Nipper You guys seem to tread the D as silent and pronounce it as Nipper I presume your way is the correct way?

Bratan did you build this yourself? It looks amazing. How is it 2wd?, a common axle for the two rear wheels?

Nice bike and video Dennis 👍 Im riding a dnepr K650 sidecar. I realy like the (stainless) mufflers. Where did you get them please? Regards. Marc.

great to see your a biker too ,nice outfit and love the huge brakes up front . i used to have an old jawa 350 and sidecar ,it was so light and fun ,great for sliding round corners . Hoping for happier times in Ukraine my friend . Regards from uk

Wow...i cant imagine that you will ride on your bike in winter....its nice for fun...but also danger....cant ride too fast...otherwise the break isnt properly working ?..where is your country...?...its very snowy........,i leaving in java...indonesia....you know bali...thats also in my country....,i ride my vmax everyday here....🙏

Добрий день ,ви можете показати як ви встановили замок запалювання !.

👍

Very boring! I kick my matchless 350 max 2 times at minus 19c and it starts immidiateley. Run low rpm in cold temp. What is the perpose off this video?

Круто що канал англомовний!

I like the Dnepr better... the sheet metal shapes appeal to me more...

Did you sell your Dnepr? Such a cool looking bike!

love old school mc

a real dnepr starts with -30 no problem 3 kicks , ur dnepr is not adjusted correctly .

💪💪💪👍👍👍

It s minus too much centigrades...

As if you have started a whole factory lol

all carb bikes require choke!!! including my Honda Nighthawk 750 even in 70 degree morning.Once started YOU MUST LET IT RUN ON CHOKE FEW MINUTES not just immediately put choke back.Let the engine warm up

Камон) эврибади))) иностранец....

Treat like a car and preheat!!!

a Dnepr (not Ural) with disc brakes? How is this possible?😲 How i can get one in Czech Republic? (following you from the begging of the war, love to discover your bike and Dnepr videos) Free Ukraine!!

Amatör

I think you did everything in reverse… Turn on the choke first, tickle the carbs and then kick. It would’ve started a lot sooner.

There is not so many people ride moyorcycle as you.....do they think ypu are crazy..ride in winter ?....
