Buying an Ural bike in eastern Europe
Hi
We're looking to buy an old Ural/Dnepr motorbike (preferrably with sidecar). We found a number of bikes on offer via www.moto.auto.ru. But the paperwork seems like a hassle. Several people have told us that Poland would still be swamped with Urals. Does anyone have som tips on how or where to look for one? Website with classifieds, real live motorbike markets, dealers, clubs?
If anyone knows a thing or two about these: please feel free to give some hints on how to tell a good one from a bad one. Every bike has its weaknesses...
The easy way is to get one in western europe and scoot around for a bit, but they're up to 15 times the price as in russia, and searching one is half the fun.....the other half is driving it home.
cheers
