Comments: – – The good operation of our motorcycles under the Soviets, and especially in the 90s, in the villages, everything that was lying badly on them (with the general mess and collapse), this technique did a great job. They survived as best they could.
According to old concepts, once in the USSR the number of tractors was counted in terms of the conditional 15 strong, therefore, formally, one MT or Ural is more than two conventional tractors. He worked as a student on a cargo K750, which had a cargo trough instead of a passenger sidecar. I loaded 30 boxes of tomatoes into it. In a box, on average, 10 kg and plus a box up to 1.5 kg. Once I had to ride a stacked load up a rather steep hill, about three hundred meters, on a cobblestone pavement. There was no drive to the sidecar, the motorcycle tends to turn around the sidecar.
I turn the steering wheel to the left, full throttle in first. The motorcycle goes straight, and the front wheel just bounces over the cobblestones, and so more twirling in the air. These motorcycles are not high-speed, but high-torque, just for the Soviet off-road of those times.
I coped with a 12 meter log alone. The trailer helped me with this. I put the thin top on the Ural’s hitch. fastened with their rubber bands cut ve old car tubes. How I do it, there is a video on my channel Vasily Baryshev. And I attached the heavy butt to the rear of the trailer from the bottom. My trailer has no common axle. Independent suspension on forks.
Therefore, under the trailer, you can carry fixed logs, before that I raise the drawbar of the trailer. The rear of the trailer drops down to the butt of the log. I tie the butt to the back of the trailer with a rope. I lower the drawbar of the trailer to the log and tie it to the raised edge of the log. I drove at a distance of up to 6 km. And 12-meter pipes 150 mm in diameter drove to the village for 20 km. They helped me to drain the lower part of the garden. In total, they buried 5 or 6 pipes.
I bought the Dnieper for myself one to one like this, in perfect condition of the 90th year !! Lver is just fierce, rushing like a fool everywhere, it was already scary to sit down on him at first !! Madly delighted with him))
