THIS BIKE IS NOW SOLD.
Here are some photos of my Dnepr outfit. It passed its MOT last year and still has two months more to run. I have been riding it regularly and find that it handles really well and the little Petter twin runs sweetly and starts easily on a good
battery. The top speed is not great but there is still room for adjustment on the governor. I have since fitted a round tank behind the pillion seat and I have made a dummy tank to cover the engine section but it needs finishing.
Since the photos were taken, it has acquired a coating of road dirt and some leaking oil. I have a new set of gaskets and oil seals but have not fitted them yet.
I am now looking for a buyer. You are welcome to come and see it for yourself and ride it, if you wish. You can ride it away if you buy it.

I am asking a price which I should expect to have to pay for it if I wanted to buy it back! Bearing in mind the number of hours spent building it, the time spent researching, finding parts and obtaining facilities plus the cost of all the parts, I am asking £1950. For the full price, I will include some spares, such as oil filters etc, but the battery belongs to our caravan, so please bring your own if you buy, or negotiate with me.
Oh, and in case you are wondering, the towbar is fully wired to a 12n socket.
My number is 01255 435692 or 0776 3161903
The bike is at home in Clacton on Sea, in North Est Essex.
