These motorcycles have been tested by time and are still in production - our Ural is unrivaled
Many Russians regret that the Izh and Voskhod motorcycles have been discontinued. Like, let them still make them. It’s just that we somehow forget about why they stopped producing them. But the main reason is the lack of demand. If obsolete motorcycles were bought, they would continue to be made. But in a market economy, you cannot work in a warehouse. It would be nice if the state supported an unprofitable enterprise. But why do this, especially since motorcycles are not the most popular product. So Russia has lost its stories.


But there is one domestic brand that continues to produce motorcycles. Moreover, in appearance they are similar to the same models that were assembled more than 50 years ago. And structurally they have a lot in common. These are Ural brand motorcycles. But foreign brands also have leaders. They have been produced for decades. Bikes are really popular due to their simplicity, reliability and relative cheapness. For example, Yamaha TW200. This motorcycle debuted in 1987 and continues to be in demand. Obviously they are taking it well, since they are not discontinuing it. And the Yamaha TW200 is valuable primarily for its versatility. It’s just that it’s difficult with it on the highway - driving more than 100 km/h is problematic. But for forests and fields this is an ideal option.
