The Ukrainian bike industry combines the past and the future in itself: it has a firm legacy of the USSR and found a present-day attitude. The USSR period is connected with the Dnepr brand and the present-day period is represented mostly by the Iron Custom Motorcycles workshop.
The history of the Dnepr manufacture was initiated from the German motorcycle model BMW R71, which was confiscated as a form of reparations of the country, defeated in the Second World War. Dnepr is most widely known for its off-road vehicles, especially sidecar models. The first sidecar bike MV-750 was manufactured in 1964 and it has military traces. In 70-s the production of the Dnepr brand came into the UK market, being marketed as “Cossack motorcycles”.

One of the motorcycle models which the brand chose for customizing was Harley Davidson HD Rocker C. Also their prize-awarding models were Sturmvogel and Fetish (the last one is also a Harley Davidson modified class.
