Welcome to Dnepr Motorcycle Information Page!

No longer under production.

Dnepr is the brand name of heavy motorcycles produced in Kiev, Ukraine. It has been in use since 1967. The Dnepr is famous for its off-road capability. Armed services models equipped with sidecars had two-wheel drive and as much as fifteen centimetres (6 in) of ground clearance. The present engine is a 650cc OHV boxer twin. Modern models are sold with engines ranging from the factory standard 650 to 750 and 1000cc. Some models have been spotted sporting aftermarket 1000 Hatz diesel, BMW, and even VW car engines. These motorcycles have featured in many films like Indiana Jones and used prominently in the movie Garden State, with Zach Braff. Between 1973 and 1979 Dnepr was one of the makes marketed by Satra in the United Kingdom as Cossack motorcycles. Since demise of U.S.S.R. the factory had fallen on very hard times. Production decreased to only remnants of former glory. All shops were closed, and machine tools were taken out of the city limits.
