Jawatino, your are great. I admire you for the work to study, collect and show here many many unusual motorcycles and not only. Congrats.

Wow, IZh-1 is one steampunk-looking bike, also that thing was very advanced for the time.

Had a MotoGuzzi California for 25 years. Great bike.

All of them. 100%. Simply beautiful. I wish that some day I would have such beautiful machine...

I love the V twin engines, Have owned a few all makes Great video’s

Thanks for the memories.

Great show of different cycles!

Lambretta GP was ahead of its time

The first models had a Magneto type ignition with the CGI and if you put it in first gear and pushed it to feet the engine would start. For the gl500 they change the electrical system you can't do that anymore.

The Lilac was a successful company until they enlarging the company and did not have the customers to support the enlarging then they went out of business. Being shaft drive motorcycles they were always more expensive than the competition with chain drive.

We should remake those IZH-1200s again with magnesium wheels and modern electronics!

Very interesting!

Memories. I had a Honda CX500 back then... put a lot of miles on that.

I enjoyed this video as I'm building one of these types good to know some history on the subject, very beautiful machines they are!

Really enjoyed the content...thanks

Grazie! Veramente interessante! Prodigio di creatività umana!

that IZH reminds me of something captain nemo would have in his sub, its mint

Great show,man. 2-wheels,nothin like it! 😎👍✌🇨🇦

Ganz große Klasse der Beitrag, ich fahr selbst eine MG V7 ll😊

The adjectives transverse and inline refer to the orientation of the crankshaft, not the cylinders. Therefore BMW twins and Moto Guzzis et al are inline (longitudinal) whereas Ducati and HD twins are transverse. Just saying.

echt geile Geschosse...

Love that 1933 AJS S-3, 500 cc- 5 hp. well designed and visually balanced and properly handsome bike with all mechanical components uncrowded & accessible. Looks to be quality build on par with many Brough Superior influences all around. The shaft to chain final drive has me curious & wondering just what they were thinking. Maybe there was strength concern with use of full length shaft on unimproved road back in the day. Chain drive does have the flex and forgiveness when too much spinning torque on abrupt contact tends to snap chains easy fix, the shaft lacks and flex and forgiveness and either bends or twists the shaft or just snaps or cracks the shaft and hub, depending on the strength of the metal kin each component. Years ago.I rode a 1952 BMW r50, 500cc, set it up as a trail friendly bike or dual sport with knobbies, crash bars.bumpers for the cylinders solo seat and rack, It was nice having the shaft drive no exposed chain to oil and wear out, the Earls or leading link mechanical pivot front forks were great too, no seals to replace. Of coarse you dont ride a bike like that aggressive like a dirt bike But it was a little low hp low compression tractor took me on many off road adventures with minimum maintenance.

Thanks 😎 again...

De szépek vagytok..,.

Sensacional guerreiro! 👍

That Russian bike near the end is so cool!

Muito bonita gostei muito...Monteiro Paraíba brasil Valeu eu fui

The Indian dealers post-war clamored for a civilian version of the army 841. Everything the Dealer's wanted the factory said no to and the factory went out of business because they did not listen to their dealers who sold their product

Could you please move your subtitles 10-20% higher or put it on top of picture? Both my PC and cell phone have nasty habit of overwriting it with progress bar. It's hard to read fast enough - I'm not native speaker (Poland, Silesia region), not my first or even my second language. A PAUSE frequently. Result - hard to read below YT progress bar. Perhaps I don't know something, perhaps there is something that I can do on my side?

Great developing

Missed the Phelan and Moore Panthette a Greenville Bradshaw designed motor

The shaft drive on the Indian 841 as well as a German BMWs protected the Driveline from Sand unlike the open chain of the Harley and Indian regular Army motorcycles. Notice the Indian has a Springer front end on it where is the Harley copy of the German BMW motorcycle has a hydraulic front end because that's what the bike yet it was over 10 years before Harley put a hydraulic front end on their motorcycles.

👏👏

صنعت روسیه را عشق است روسیه ابر قدرت زنده و پیروز باد روسها

There is nothing like the Moto Guzzi music.

The "Victoria" motorcycles used chains & sprockets in.the gearbox instead of gears.

Both terms are accepted depend if you talk about cyl or crankshaft.

❤❤

عالی بود،متشکرم 👍

I Russia they say it doesn't have to be pretty ... it just has to work.

Longitudinal

All the motorcycles shown on the video have longitudinal engines and not transverse. It is a common mistake.When the engine s crankshaft is placed parallel to the length of the frame,it is longitudinal. And when the crankshaft is placed across the frame, it is transverse. Examples: BMW boxer twins, Honda Goldwing, Moto Guzzi Vtwins have longitudinal engines. Harleys, Ducatis,Suzuki Hayabusa have transverse engines.

The first BSA sounded just like a Harley.

NON-transverse. You got it backwards

Indian should build a modern adventure bike, with their modern engine turned around 90 degrees & with an in-line gearbox & shaft drive, just like they did with the 841

🤘😎🤘

you mean longitudinal not transverse

Transverse? you mean longitudinal . a normal v-twin like harley or most customs are transverse

I loved by CX500 Deluxe owned it for 10 years and put 250,000 miles on it then the cam chain broke and destroyed the engine

None of these motocycles features a transversely mounted engine, as the direction is defined by the crankshaft. Instead, Harley Davidson and Ducati, for instance, build motos with transverse engines.

All the motorcycles made in former URSS, are copy with license and mostly without, from european and US trade marks. Let say "inspired by"...

Love the Russian IZH

Too bad he can't tell transverse from longitudinal.
