I really do need a new carburetor for my motorcycle. The old is bust. Trouble is though that my bike is a rare breed indeed in these parts. It’s an old Second World War era, Red Army intelligence dispatch bike, called a Sthulniykov and they didn’t even make too many of them back in the day. Even most motorcycles enthusiasts not to say geeks even seem to be aware of their existence. But I’ve got one and I love it. The carburetor though man. What can you do? I need one badly. I recently inspected the motorcycle department of the otherwise great auction site lauritz.com but not even they had one. I told you the bikes rare. I could perhaps track down carburetor manufactured by a bigger Russian “brand” from the same era such as Ural or a Dnepr (which is Ukrainian actually) and have a skilled mechanic modify it to fit my bike. I have to do something.
