Soviet Steeds

Soviet Steeds is an independent online forum founded in 2007 for Ural and Dnepr motorcycle enthusiasts. It brings together owners, prospective buyers, mechanics, and fans of Soviet-style sidecar rigs to exchange advice, share experiences, and connect with fellow riders. The community covers practical and social topics, from introductions and beginner questions to model-specific troubleshooting, maintenance, modifications, and accessories. Dedicated sections address carbureted motorcycles, 2014-and-later models, and other makes such as Chang Jiang, IZh, and BMW.

Members can also use the site to plan rides and rallies, post trip reports, discuss hobbies, and browse motorcycle-related listings. Its marketplace includes areas for individual and commercial ads, alongside a classifieds feature for buying and selling motorcycles, parts, and related goods. Additional resources include instructional videos and how-to posts, a directory, a garage showcase, and member reviews and discussions. With active forums, community features, and a linked Facebook group, Soviet Steeds serves as a gathering place for riders seeking technical help, riding companions, and conversation centered on Ural and Dnepr motorcycles.
