The old motorcycle Izh-56 was restored - now it is better than off the assembly line!

Old Soviet motorcycles often live out their days in sheds and garages. Periodically, they are dismantled and sold for spare parts or scrapped.

But this is blasphemy when there are people in Russia and the CIS who are ready to work with old motorcycles! The guys from the motorcycle studio Retrotsikl show the Izh-56 model, carefully restored to the state of the ideal.

Do you think it's easy to turn a bunch of scrap metal into a new bike? Well, what, swept through the villages, found a two-wheeled vehicle in good condition! More spare parts will give a full trunk, and at a minimal cost!

And then find spare parts for the missing elements - many will gladly part with pieces of iron that take up space in the garage!

But as soon as you start, it becomes clear that the restoration of old Soviet motorcycles is not an easy task! Details need to be searched for in all CIS countries, and they are asking for them very expensively. You will have to do some of the elements yourself, order something from factories ...

In general, those who have tried it know the complexity of such work! Therefore, bow to the guys for Izh-56 - they deserve it!
Izh-56 handsome, or a pile of scrap metal?
