Saving a rusty Ural M-62 – the engine became better than the factory one
Restoring any Soviet equipment, especially that produced before the early 1980s, is a difficult and painstaking task. Firstly, it is difficult to find spare parts. Secondly, there are still plenty of old ones on sale cars и motorcycle, but their condition is far from original. Sometimes it is easier to buy something so rusty and abandoned that its place is in a landfill. But it will be original. And there you will at least see what to strive for. This is exactly what the hero of the video on the channel "Rescue Story" decided to do. He got his hands on a Ural M-62 motorcycle. It seems that there is no point in messing with it, but this is a rare model that was produced from 1961 to 1965.
Already in the process of disassembling the motorcycle, it became clear that there would be more than just a lot of work. Especially since this Ural M-62 was repaired using an old village habit - with wire. First of all, the master took the motorcycle apart into parts to understand the scope of work. And he decided to do the engine first. After all, without an engine, the equipment will not go anywhere anyway. And in general, this is the most important thing in a motorcycle. The power unit was disassembled and completely washed using factory technology in garage conditions. Then it was polished and rebuilt using new parts. And what happened in the end - you will see for yourself.
