What a beautiful sight. The only thing we're missing is a good video!!

Dear Locomotivebreath,
May I wish you many miles of riding after so much effort to put your Dnepr back in working order. It is a treat to see it on the site. More pictures, please.
Would you mind if I asked you where you keep your fuel on your bike, as we can see no tank in the usual place? I, too, have very little space over the engine of my Dnepr, with its British made motor, (similar to the Hatz only less compact) and I am wondering where everyone else does.
Regards, Stormcoat.

Looks GREAT Dave!
I know reaching this step was a bit of pivotal point in things. Congratulations for breaking over "the hump" and getting her back on the road.

Re: Hatz/Dnepr back on the road
Thanks all for the kind words; I'll get a video soon. As for the fuel tank, a stock Ruggerini tank/filter from my RD211 is in its temporary location on the sidecar unseen. I'll get a picture. A permanent tank is in the works that will locate a tank somewhere out of the way on the sidecar.stormcoat wrote:Dear Locomotivebreath,
