Dnepr K-750M
In a military conflict, any bike will do if it’s reliable, and Russian bikes are purpose-built to withstand just about anything. First came the M-72, next Ural, and then Dnepr, all intended as military machines.

Does it stir your heart when you see a sidecar with a machine gun, or watch an old re-run of “Rat Patrol”?

In practice, the infantry usually just belt-fed the bipod version, resulting in it functioning as a classic

Soviet Machine Guns feed from the right and ejects spent cases via an ejection port on the left, as opposed to the right side ejection port seen in most Western machine guns.
Airsoft Machine Guns
Airsoft machine guns are the least expensive approach. Plus the little orange cap helps to placate the police.

Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount (Silver Goose: The Eastern Block, http://www.silvergoosestore.biz/nato%20inst.htm)
Find the spot where you will drill the hole for the tube to come through the top of the tub. Square up to the edge of the tub as shown above, using the second loop as a reference point.

Measure down the square to 16-1/2 inches.
Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount (Silver Goose: The Eastern Block)
Mark it and ready your drill motor with the 2” to 2-1/4” hole-saw. Center punch your mark and carefully start the pilot bit into the top of the tub. Slowly saw the hole through. Clean up the hole with a file if needed.
Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount (Silver Goose: The Eastern Block)
Moving to the inside of the tub, remove the right bumper bolt and set it aside, used later to anchor the foot plate. Just put it in to mark the second hole for now. Drill a 5/16” hole for the upper left anchoring point. Insert the bolt and tighten both hand-tight. Thread on the lower tube on foot plate.
Adding a NATO-Style Front-Corner Machine Gun Mount (Silver Goose: The Eastern Block)
Next, install the upper tube so it fits up to the lower portion and square everything. Mark and drill the upper plate holes and remove the tube and paper. Clean up the holes and touch up with some paint to prevent rust. Some silicone sealant keeps out water on the top plate. Fit everything together and check that everything is square and snug. Re-tighten all bolts and you’re done.

Ammo Canisters vs. Panniers
(Silver Goose @ http://www.silvergoosestore.biz, and Bill Glaser @ http://myural.com/ural_accessories.htm)
Contrary to popular myth, panniers are not ammo boxes. Ammo might have been carried in them, but they were not designed with that purpose in mind. These are general purpose panniers for tools, parts, vodka, etc. Panniers are available through European vendors. IMWA (Irbit MotorWorks of America) sells a modernized version of these through their dealer network. Most are new-made copies, not NOS (new old stock).

Ammo Canisters vs. Panniers
(Silver Goose @ http://www.silvergoosestore.biz, and Bill Glaser @ http://myural.com/ural_accessories.htm)
Contrary to popular myth, panniers are not ammo boxes. Ammo might have been carried in them, but they were not designed with that purpose in mind. These are general purpose panniers for tools, parts, vodka, etc. Panniers are available through European vendors. IMWA (Irbit MotorWorks of America) sells a modernized version of these through their dealer network. Most are new-made copies, not NOS (new old stock).
Pannier K-750
M-72
K-750 CJ750 Pannier is derived from the old French “panier,” meaning basket for bread. A Pannier is either of a pair of bags or boxes attached to the sides of the motorcycle or sidecar and is used to carry gear, clothes or tools.
Dnepr MW-750 (MB-750) and MW-650 (MB-650)
The mounting frame is bolted to the sidecar body and the pannier is then attached to the frame using the traditional spring loaded rotating handles.

Ural Gear-Up
Being smaller, but more maneuverable than any army jeep, Gear-Up is effective for task force missions, particularly in tight city blocks. The crew of the motorcycle may include two or three people, including the driver.

Russian Motorcycles Part VII: Black-Out Lights Ernie Franke
[email protected] 03/2010
Black-Out Lights for Russian Motorcycles • What are Black-Out Lights? • Blackout Lights Used for Combat Operations – When a Convoy of Military Vehicles Moves at Night – When There Are Enemy Aircraft in the Sky – Not Visible to Distant Enemy – Allows Motorcycle Rider to Operate in Total Darkness – Provides Minimum Lighting to Show Position to Leading or Trailing Vehicle • Because Light Covers Are Changed Manually from “Normal” to “Black-out,” the Driver Can’t Accidentally Reveal His Location
Note: Not for Road Use! Blackout lighting cannot be easily seen from above, yet provides just enough light so that you can follow the vehicle directly in front.

Part VIII: Driving Lights and Spot-Lights Ernie Franke
[email protected] 03/2010
Driving Lights and Spot-Lights • Generator/Alternator Limitations on Lighting – Limited Output at Rated RPM – Limited Output when Idling • Spot-Light Mounted in Machine Gun Receiver • Silver Goose Spot-Lights • Driving and Fog Lights • Extra Lighting Needs Relay Control and Wiring
– Handlebar Switches Aren’t Made to Handle Increased Current – Wire and Fuses Aren’t Meant to Handle Increased Current
• Many Lighting Products Are Not D.O.T. Approved – For "off-road or competition"
Most folks scan their JC Whitney or KC catalog for spot lights, driving lights and fog lights. For good-looking military solutions, it is recommended to check with the Ural people, Silver Goose, Raceway Services, etc.

Their heavy-duty light kits are needed to hook extra lights. The two heavy duty relays are actuated by signals from the headlight and power comes from the sidecar fuse box or dedicated line to the battery. You can’t just wire it in parallel with the headlight.
Spotlight Installation (silver goose) •
Mounting the Light – Most Important Part Is Positioning the Light
• If Windshield Present or Planned, Place Spotlight Front Enough to Clear it when Windshield Is All the Way Forward • About 2 1/2 inches between Back of Spotlight Base and Apron Loop
– After Marking where you want the light
• Center-Punch and Cut Center Hole of 5/8” to 1” to Clear the Nut and Allow for Wiring • Recommended Hole-Saw because Large Drills Bits Have Tendency to Grab when Going thru Sheet Metal
– When Center hole Is Cut
• Position and Square-Up Base • Mark Bolt Holes with Scratch-Awl and Set Spotlight Aside
– Center Punch the Markings
• Pilot-Drill with a 1/8” Twist-Drill • Drill with 5/16” Twist-Drill • De-bur Inside and Out
•
– Bead of Silicone-Sealant Around Center-Hole Recommended – Thread Wiring Thru and Set Spotlight in position – Bolt Up Base to Hack Tub and Tighten Nuts Electrical – The Push-In terminal can be connected to a spare on the fuse block in the hack tub. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A 15 OR 20 AMP FUSE INSTALLED.
