Swap kickstart to RHS for Ural/Dnepr in-line bikes

Post by mark_in_manchester »

If you make a bike using a Ural / Dnepr in-line gearbox, you're stuck with the kickstart poking out to the left. This can be inconvenient if you intend to attach a LH sidecar - it's OK-ish with the standard low-compression petrol engine, but not good at all once ah diesel unit is employed.

...are some pictures of one way to move the kickstart to the RHS of the bike, so as to keep it out of the way of the sidecar.

cheers
