That's great!
Those things are made not far from my wife's hometown. I've seen them being run in some pretty severe cold once the ever-present Russian mud freezes over, and the streets and roads are again moto-friendly. With sidecar, of course.
Aren't the Chinese still making their copy of the Russian's copy of the original flathead BMW R-71?
I'm really glad to read that you're able to ride again!

Yes , I have ;
I test rode it before loading it into the truck , of course , as I was putting on my helmet , the cold rain turned to _HAIL_ & riding a Moto on hail is rather like riding greased glass covered with ball bearings so I took it *very* easy but I was pleased to discover I can still ride .
Then , once I got it home I headed out for a nice day ride with an old friend , we rode up into the local national Forest & had a swell time , I was sore for a week afterwards but it was well worth the effort IMO .
No Hack , I don't like Combination Rigs .
It is a custom built Solo sT .
