the worst collection ever

[velorex]

some years ago i bought a 1954 izh 49 motorbike and fell in love with it. got a real thing for old russian bikes now. they're kind of shit, but sturdy as hell. ended up buying more of them. now i have a 1937 izh 350 ccm, a izh 49 1954 mod, a izh 56 1956 mod, and a izh planeta 1971 mod (all 350ccm). also an 1937 terrot 250ccm, and a velorex 3 wheeler. being single and having more money than brains (i don't have much of either) leads to weird forms of hoarding

One thing is for sure you have plenty to do with these babies.

more than enough. and they take up time and room for my friends too. any friends who has any spare room has stopped answering the phone when i call. gonna fix a couple up (new tires and some cleaning is all needed) and try to sell them. they are quite rare outside eastern europe, hardly any for sale online. fingers crossed i find someone willing to buy or trade.

was getting this ready for last year. then vlad the invader happened.

and it went from a cool old relic to something some would read as a political statetment. driving without a license is enough hassle without the added attention

That Velorex is on bad ass trike

Russian stealth technology the early years.
When fueled with cheap 2 stroke oil it provides a rolling smoke screen.

anything more than two strokes is jerking off
reason i'm swerving all over the road is the tires finding every groove in the road. what the front tires miss, the back one finds.

That was one hell of a ride
Maybe we added a bit to much 2 stroke oil.
Pretty smokescreen annyhow

it looks just right. even my 94 mod jawa 2 stroke smokes like that when pushed a bit. get it over a 100 kmh. and it's like i'm rudolf blodstrupmoen

the two-wheelers look somewhat like early Triumphs or BSAs, cool looking. right side jockey shifters too!

the 2 wheelers are pretty much straight up copies of the german dkw nz 350 ccm model. they got the design as a part of the war reparations after ww2. the bsa bantam and harley davidson hummer are copies of the dkw rt 125ccm, so much in common design wise.

 

[armedoldhippy]

harley davidson hummer are copies

yeah, the Hummer! i'd forgotten about them. no wonder those looked so familiar!

That Velorex it' s a piece of art. And when smoking, reminds me my small Vespa Special.

First street bike was a shiny new blue on white RD350LC and being a kid straight off MX bikes i wore the shiny off it pretty quick.
Good times LOL.

Almost killed myself on my 85 mod 350rd. Was trying to be cool and race between cars in heavy traffic. The bus infront of me slammed it's brakes and I was centimeters away from crashing into it. That's when I realized I'm too old for this shit, and decided that from now on my bikes would be older and slower than me

Old mishmash of parts, veldig steen got it running. That guy is a genius
