Picked up this Dnepr frame back in 2016 (the guy I spoke to on Craigslist told me it was a 60s model Dnepr, but was unsure of the model as there’s no VIN plate). It sat for a few years, but I finally got around to building it after graduating college. Built it up using miscellaneous parts I got from a local Pick-n-Pull, and now it’s pretty much done! I have it sitting on knobbie tires for off-roading and threw a cheap replacement engine on it after my town got flooded in 2017, and the engine was wrecked in the process. Excited to finally ride again. https://imgur.com/a/rK9ZqHk

Hello everyone, I am new to the Russian Iron family, and am still looking for a bike to make it into the group. I have been snooping around the internet and have found out about the Minsk Wildcat. The wildcat is a dirt bike mostly used in Russia, Vietnam, and China as a commuter bike. Trying to find one in the US is quite difficult, and trying to import one will cost around 3 times the cost of the bike itself. I was wondering if anyone had some information of where to get a wildcat in the US. I would really appreciate any information. Thank you for your time. - Angelo
