Irbis (Black, MO). The company was founded by a group of entrepreneurs from Vladivostok in 2001 and is now based in the village of Chernoye, Moscow Region. The Irbis range includes road and sports motorcycles of all classes, snowmobiles, ATVs, motorized towing vehicles, and I must say that, at least outwardly, the Irbis are sometimes even cooler foreign analogues. The picture shows the 250 cc road model Irbis Garpia.
"Ural" (Irbit). An absolute legend, born in 1941, one of the few Soviet motorcycle factories that survived the collapse of the USSR and the dashing 90s. Today, Ural produces heavy motorcycles with a sidecar, mainly for export, in a classic retro style. The picture shows the model "Ural Tourist T" 2016 model year.
ABM (St. Petersburg). The company was founded in 1996 and for some time worked exclusively as a dealer foreign manufacturers, now makes the whole range of motorcycles, including light motorcycles and mopeds under its own brand. Pictured is an ABM Jazz 125, a good (and very inexpensive) piece for a first bike.
Stels (Lyubertsy). Well, where without Velomotors. We have already shown their ATVs, their snowmobiles, and now - motorcycles. The picture shows the Stels Flex 250 model, and in total the Stels range includes more than 15 motorcycles for various purposes.
Armada (Moscow). This company does not build road bikes, but specializes in pit bikes, light bikes suitable for supermoto or motocross. The picture shows the most powerful model company, Armada PB250.
ZiD (Kovrov). The Degtyarev plant still makes motorcycles, although, basically, it is an assembly plant Chinese Lifan. But there is in the range and own developments, for example, the coolest type and the same cross-country ability off-road tricycle "ZiD Barkhan".
Avantis (St. Petersburg). The company was founded in 2009 and is mainly engaged in the supply of imported motorcycles. Among the products under its own brand there are several light pit bikes. Pictured is Avantis Orion 125.
Baltmotors (Kaliningrad). The range of this company, founded in 2004, includes ATVs, motorcycles, motorized dogs, inflatable boats and so on. Motorcycles, by the way, for all occasions, in the lineup of more than 10 models. Pictured is Baltmotors Street 200 DD.
"Tarus" (Kaluga). Of course, the Kaluga masters who developed and produce the ultra-light all-terrain vehicle "Tarus 2x2" (we already talked about it). The motorcycle weighs 82 kg and can go on any off-road.
Lebedev Motors (St. Petersburg). The company was founded in 2008 and produces all kinds of, mainly tracked, all-terrain vehicles. The product range also includes two-wheeled all-terrain vehicles of the Ataman line. The picture shows the Ataman MAD MAX model, suitable for use on public roads as well.
"Vasyugan" (Novosibirsk). A very powerful all-terrain vehicle, the only model of the company of the same name. Netizens say: "The beast-machine, it will pass everywhere."
Many novice motorcyclists, trying to save money, opt for inexpensive Indian and Chinese motorcycles, while exists whole line contemporary Russian brands which are also worth paying attention to. Maybe, domestic motorcycle you will like it much more!
Modern Russian motorcycles are in many ways inferior to well-known European and Japanese stamps. However, they remain popular in rural areas, as well as among connoisseurs of classic domestic products. Similar equipment is also operated in. Often you can find tuned versions of the last century on the roads. Consider domestic models that are currently being produced, as well as their features.
"Stealth"
Let's start the review of Russian motorcycles with the new and not very well-known brand "Stealth", which is actively developing. This series includes the following models:
- For several years, the production of Stealth 600 Benelli motorcycles has been mastered in Russia.
- The 400th series of this manufacturer is distinguished by high quality indicators, characteristic of light urban modifications with a cross-country exterior.
- "Stealth Flex" - classic road bike.
- Units of the Stels series with a 200 cubic centimeter engine are a dynamic transport, characterized by simplicity of design and affordable price.
Motorcycles "Ural" with a sidecar: specifications
Modification "Tourist" from the Ural manufacturers refers to the classic equipped with a sidecar, is distinguished by high running and technical performance.
Used as a power unit four stroke engine with a pair of cylinders, which has a volume of 750 "cubes" and 45 horsepower. The gearbox has four ranges, including reverse gear. Motorcycles of Russia under the brand name "Ural Tourist" are equipped with a wheel drive with cardan shaft, the brake system includes a front hydraulic unit with discs and rear brake drum type. The seats are separated from each other, have a double adjustment option. The heavy bike is equipped microprocessor system ignition and a number of foreign nodes. The speed limit is 120 kilometers per hour.
"Ural Sportsman"
The release of this modification began in 2006. The unit was created on the basis of the Tourist model. It is also equipped with a side trailer. After connecting the wheels of the stroller, the car receives increased cross-country ability.
The remaining nodes and blocks are typical for most Urals. The bike is driven by a four-stroke two-cylinder engine, its power is 40 horsepower with a volume of 745 "cubes". Their other parameters include 19-inch wheels, an electric starter, a side trailer. The carriage is made of thick-walled steel, equipped with high-quality. The trailer is provided with a windshield.
"Ural Retro"
A modernized modification that mimics classic models mid twentieth century. This emphasizes the shape of the steering wheel, fuel tank in the form of a drop, a round light element at the back. Such unique elements were characteristic of that period.
The original gloss of this Russian motorcycle is given by black polishing, the bike is equipped with seats covered with genuine leather. The final touch is the gearshift handle on the gas tank, which has a wooden knob. Optionally, you can purchase a cover, windshield for side trailer parking brake, safety arcs.
"Ural Solo"
This road bike can be safely classified as a "classic". The model was improved several times, equipped with engines with a volume of 650 to 750 cubic centimeters. In addition, it has changed circuit diagram and type of carburetors. This bike is powerful and modern version, stylized as units of the 50s of the last century.
The unit is equipped pendulum suspension at the back and a telescopic counterpart at the front. The equipment includes safety arcs, an electric starter and a chrome-plated fuel tank with a capacity of 19 liters. 18-inch wheels are spoked.
Motorcycles IZH (Russia)
This manufacturer has been operating for over 85 years. The first motorcycle of the brand in question was released in 1929 (the city of Izhevsk). Mass production at the plant began 17 years later. During mass production, about 12 million units of various categories were produced.
The following modifications can be noted:
- Road motorcycles of Russia "Junker". The unit is equipped with a two-stroke power unit, the volume of which is 350 cubic centimeters. Top speed bike - 115 km / h. the exterior is reminiscent of American style, thanks to the presence of a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a high steering wheel and forward footrests.
- The famous "IZH Jupiter".
- Motobike for teenagers "Cornet".
- Cargo modifications and all-terrain vehicles.
- Models limited edition sports type"PS-650 ROTAX".

- Transmission - three-speed mechanical box gears.
- Wheels - cast.
Some improved modifications are equipped with disc brake, fairings and holder for the trunk.
Finally
The above indicates which motorcycles are produced in Russia. To date, this industry is underdeveloped. Many quality models are made for export. Nevertheless, there are worthy domestic representatives among two-wheeled vehicles on the market. In addition to the modifications described above, the Minsk brand can be noted, which comes out in the classic, cross style and enduro category. Also on the market are light motorcycles and street scooters, which differ in their original configuration. One of the most popular manufacturers are IZH and Ural. No less famous among the motorcycles of Russia earlier "Sunrise", on given time not issued.
In addition to the currently produced motorcycles, the Urals will begin the production of choppers and sportbikes.
Ural 2015 release
chopper
During the week, the working prototype of the Russian Motorcycle project was presented to the public, on which the Volga plant Piston and the Night Wolves motorcycle club are working. According to the official version of the creators, the motorcycle should become a worthy domestic replacement for Japanese and American models, so that “Russian motorcyclists” can patriotically ride a “Russian motorcycle”. It is still too early to talk about the readiness of the motorcycle for the series, although the creators promise to show the device ready for production as early as August this year, but we can study the prototype in great detail. 
So, a prototype was put up for public judgment, very vaguely resembling modern motorcycle. The design is more like the brainchild of the garage Kulibins, who undertook to build a "chopper" from the old grandfather's "Ural". There is not much money and experience, but this is more than compensated by the enthusiasm and desire to ride. We won’t talk about design yet, yet we have a “mule” on which structural elements are being worked out.
The frame of the motorcycle is very similar to the structural element of the Irbit motorcycle "Ural" M-63, which was produced in the middle of the last century. Material - steel pipe. Recall that the M-63 frame became a logical development of the M-72 motorcycle frame, which, in turn, was copied from BMW motorcycle R-71 1938 model year. Modern technologies in action, so to speak.
Integrated into the rear swingarm cardan shaft and body main gear. In the domestic motorcycle industry, no one has yet used such technology, however, the same Germans, and the Japanese, adopted this technological method about fifty years ago. It is worth noting another technical “novelty”, well known to many garage customizers. Historically, the geometry of the swingarm, frame, and driveshaft arrangement has meant the use of very narrow wheels. However, the "chopper" style involves the installation of a "thick" tire on rear wheel. Judging by the photo, the “Russian motorcycle” has a 200 / 60R16 wheel (which, by the way, bears the inscription “Made in Germany”). In order for the cardan shaft not to touch the thick wheel, I had to use a gearbox, which helped to shift the cardan shaft to the side. In general, everything best traditions garage tuning.
shock absorbers rear suspension migrated straight from the Urals, the front fork, presumably, was also borrowed from foreign counterparts. The domestic industry has not produced such units for many years.
Since developing engines from scratch is a very expensive and time-consuming pleasure, available only to very rich and experienced corporations, domestic motorcycle builders did not “reinvent the wheel” and took the crankcase and CPG from the same Ural as the basis for their engine. As planned, the engine should have a lower valve circuit (borrowed from the same IMZ M-72 - BMW R-71, model year see above). At the same time, the engine displacement was increased from 750 to 1,100 cm3, and a fuel injection system was installed instead of carburetors.
However, the manufacturer promises that the engine power will be increased to 150 hp. With. Obviously, it is impossible to remove the declared power from the lower valve of such a working volume. Let me remind you that the M-72 engine, with a volume of 750 cm3, developed “already” 27 liters. s., and the most powerful of the serial Irbit units, a modern upper valve of the same volume, develops 40 hp. With.
Therefore, among the photographs distributed by the manufacturer, there are also shots of overhead valve (not to be confused with overhead) heads with two valves per cylinder (obviously borrowed from the grandfather's box with spare parts from the old Ural). In this case, in the cylinders you can see pistons with recesses for four valves. What the developers wanted to say by this is not clear. Either a four-valve head is planned, or there were no other pistons in the “box with old spare parts” and they inserted what came to hand.
In a word, it is too early to talk about the engine in its final version. It is only clear that this is not the most best copy motor, which will soon be 100 (one hundred) years old. Power, judging by external data, is unlikely to exceed 60 liters. With.
The picture is completed by the fuel tank borrowed from the Ural Wolf motorcycle of the Irbit plant, the headlight clearly migrated to the motorcycle from armored vehicles, disk brake mechanisms, obviously imported, since nothing of the kind is produced in Russia. The gearbox is a four-speed unit from the Urals (by the way, it is not at all clear how it will cope with the increased power and torque, because it was calculated for half the figures).
It is obvious that it is impossible to build a motorcycle “completely on domestic components” in modern realities. Russia does not produce motor tires of the sizes needed for such a motorcycle, brake mechanisms, fuel injection systems, lighting equipment (only if from a tank), and not a single enterprise will take up casting crankcases. To date, even the leading manufacturers of motorcycles order casting blanks for crankcases and cylinders in the countries of Southeast Asia and only carry out the final one on their own.
We will continue to monitor the odious project.

sportbike
In St. Petersburg they made the safest sport bike
Sportbikes are beautiful, daring, but, unfortunately, often deadly vehicles. The St. Petersburg company Chak Motors decided to rectify the situation and design "the safest sport bike in the world."
The basis for the sportbike "Hammer" was the "liter" Honda model CBR 1000RR ABS 2013, which the creators completely dismantled, leaving only the frame, engine and wheels. Most of the body of the motorcycle is made of carbon fiber, and a small lithium ion battery helps to reduce the weight of the Hammer. Thanks to the use of aluminum and composite materials in the construction, the frame can withstand up to 200 kg, which is very important, given the size of the beer belly of some bikers. The upper part, and with it the electrical wiring, is completely hidden under the plastic case.
The main thing that the creators of "Hammer" focus on is safe driving, as far as it is generally applicable to the term "sportbike". To do this, the masters equipped the Hammer with all kinds of systems and sensors. For example, LED turn signals and front and rear lights, which make the model visible to other drivers. Also on the "Hammer" is a warning system emergency braking. She gives signals as soon as the motorcycle enters the minimum danger zone, and takes full control of braking system to avoid collision.
In addition, the model is equipped with two touch sensors for monitoring blind spots and a safe engine stop function. In the event of an accident or a fight with folk artists at a gas station, justice in court can be restored using recordings from HD cameras built into the front and rear of the motorcycle. The information from the cameras is stored in a black box placed in a box made of impact-resistant material, and this data cannot be erased or changed - only copied. True, if the disk is full, then the data is automatically deleted. In a word, the guys from Chak Motors tried to make the process of driving the Hammer as safe as possible. Each model is assembled by hand, and some parts of the motorcycle are made of metal and plastic using 3D printing.
When the desire to buy a motorcycle arises, you find that there are not so many options to choose from. The most reliable are usually the most cumbersome. Most motorcycles that have safety features are touring, and among sports motorcycles given element simply no.
In the high-tech age we live in, we believe it's time to build motorcycles that are safer and more elegant.
ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) has been around since the 70s but has only recently been introduced to motorcycles. That is why we believe that the proven technology is no longer so valuable and can be implemented in our developments. It's the same with the manufacturing process, with the technology we currently have, we can make a motorcycle lighter and stronger.
Design
The HAMMER is an aggressive, powerful and technologically advanced superbike with a 1000cc engine.
The HAMMER motorcycle is based entirely on the 2013 Honda 1000RR ABS motorcycle, which we believe is the most suitable base on the market today. Its design allowed us to completely remove everything, leaving only the frame, engine and wheels.
The frame itself has been completely modified, giving the bike a lighter look. Although the rear of the bike looks very light and fragile, it is actually very strong. We use composite materials and aluminum, which allows the frame to withstand loads up to 200 kg. The look of the bike itself is aggressive and aerodynamic, every line and every notch has been designed with that in mind. The top of the motorcycle, where it is located steering, fully enclosed to hide all electrical wiring and hoses. In this way, many parts of the motorcycle are insured against the effects of the weather and contact with the rider.
Security and Technology
This is exactly what we think the HAMMER will stand out with.
The first is lighting. The HAMMER is fully equipped with LED lamps, making it the first motorcycle without a single incandescent lamp: low and high beams, daylight, turn signals and rear lights, all this LED bulbs(LED).
Visibility is a huge factor for a motorcycle. To make you visible to other drivers on the road day and night, we use LEDs to maximize motorcycle illumination.
LED lamps are the fastest to turn on, improve visibility and last longer.
The second is road control. In most cases, the human factor is not always best remedy to avoid accidents. In such situations, the computer does it better than us.
Emergency Brake Warning System (PEBS) installed on cars from some time, now installed on the HAMMER. This system is specially installed on a motorcycle and is used in cases where braking time goes by microseconds. The Emergency Brake Warning System (PEBS) works in three ways. Suppose a car in front of you is about to slow down and for some reason you did not pay attention to it. First, as soon as you enter the minimum zone, PEBS will send you a signal - this will be a flashing signal light on dashboard and slight vibration of the control knobs. If you do not pay attention to these signals, then PEBS will increase the vibration and start to slow down a little. But, if in this case, you do not pay attention, PEBS will take full control of the braking system in order to avoid a collision.
Thanks to the established anti-lock braking system braking (ABS), you will not lose control of the motorcycle. PEBS also works in situations where you don't have enough time to react. If the vehicle in front of you suddenly brakes, PEBS will also apply emergency braking in order to avoid a collision. PEBS operates with two radars, one for short ranges and one for long ranges, along with an HD camera mounted on the headlight.
In addition to the emergency braking warning system (PEBS), the HAMMER is equipped with a blind spot monitoring system. Two touch sensors are mounted on the rear of the motorcycle (one on each side). As you prepare to make a turn, the blind spot sensors will monitor the presence of any object in that zone. The sensors will send you a warning by flashing the signal light and vibrating the control knobs.
The motorcycle is fitted with Lane Change Assist (LDWS). Suppose you are distracted from the road and your motorcycle began to go sideways. The lane change assistant (LDWS) will detect that you have deviated from the lane and will send you a signal by vibrating the control sticks. The system is deactivated when you turn by turning on the turn signal.
The HAMMER has a safe engine stop function. The motorcycle's built-in gyroscope detects any malfunction in the vibration and motion control of the motorcycle, which means that you are facing an uncontrollable situation. The HAMMER will automatically turn off the motor. (This feature can be disabled)
Another security feature is the built-in camera. high resolution(HD-camera) located in the front and back parts motorcycle, While driving or in the garage, the camera records 24 hours / 7 days.
All information is recorded in the so-called black box, similar to those found on airplanes. This box is placed in a box made of impact-resistant material.
Access to this kit (black box) is greatly facilitated. All information on it cannot be changed or erased, it can only be copied. Information is automatically erased after the disk is full. You will be able to see on the control panel indicator that the disk is almost full. This will give you time to copy the information you need to external media.
You can also charge your phone, for this there is a special small compartment on the back, which has a USB connector.
In order to shorten the motorcycle production time, we have introduced 3D printing technology, about 5% of motorcycle parts are made of metal and plastic using 3D printer technology. In addition to this, we use the lightest materials. Most of the motorcycle and its body are made of carbon fiber. We also use a small but powerful lithium ion battery instead of a heavy and bulky lead acid battery.
HAND-MADE
All of our motorcycles are handcrafted to ensure high quality and full attention to every detail.
- June 30, 2015
Anyone familiar with Russian hinterland, is probably familiar with such Russian motorcycles as IZH, Minsk and Java, although the latter device is not entirely Russian. Most of them don't even know those names.
What is happening in our production of motorcycles today? Which companies continue to produce motorcycles in our country? Let's try to find out the answers to these questions.
Motorcycles "Izh"
It turns out that this year the production of Russian motorcycles turned 85 years old. The very first motorcycle in the country was made in the city of Izhevsk in 1929. It was named IZH-1. Only 17 years later, since 1946, at Izhevsk machine-building plant" began mass production motor vehicles. About 12 million - that's how many motorcycles were produced in various versions for 60 years. The roads of a dozen countries of the world and the test of time - Izhevsk equipment has passed all this.
The very first motorcycle in the country IZH-1 Izhevsk plant produces the following motor vehicles:
1. Road bikes
Motorcycle "Junker"
"Junker" - equipped with a two-stroke two-cylinder engine with a working volume of about 350 cubic centimeters. Max speed such a "beast" - 115 kilometers per hour. Easily noticeable is the American style in the teardrop-shaped tank, high handlebars and forward footpegs.
Motorcycle "Izh" Planet - 5 "
Teenage motorcycle "Cornet"
2. Special motorcycles
Cargo motorcycle "IZH 6.92003"
3. Motorcycles IZH limited series
Motorcycle IZH Saigak
« Izhevsk motorcycles Today they have lost their former popularity. Chinese and semi-Chinese scooters are now being produced at the production facilities of the plant under the Fast and the Furious brand and with some little-sounding Chinese names.
Motorcycles "Java"
Not Russian production, but such "relatives".
Motorcycles "Minsk"
Oddly enough, the production of motorcycles at the plant continues, new models appear, and not only beautiful in appearance, but also with good technical specifications. Several options are available:
1. Classic
2. Enduro series
3. Motorcycle series Cross
There is also a series of scooters and a series of motorcycles "Street", which are distinguished by a special shape. The full catalog can be viewed on the official website: new-minsk.ru.
Motorcycles "Sunrise"
These exhibits of the Dyagterev plant, unfortunately, are no longer produced in our country.
Perhaps these are all motorcycles that are produced in Russia. Car reviews and repair information can be found. If you have something to add - write in the comments.
