The most sophisticated High-tech bike
2012 IZH inspired from 1929 Soviet motorcycle

2012 IZH - Concept

The brand new izh motorcycle is the bike with most sophisticated technological implemented systems. It has everything that a modern car is equipped with. But let's start with some history lesson first.

Back in 1927 the Russian motorcycle brand was one of the biggest factories in the world with 11 000 000 bikes produced since the 1927. However mainly the izh was a well-known producer of weapons (for example the AK-47 famous "Kalashnikov"). For the civil market though they had also automotive factory and they were the main Soviet motorcycle supplier before the falling of the USSR. But in spite of these facts the russian brand is absolutely unknown in the Western countries.

So the 1929 model of the izh motorcycle was with 1200cc V-twin engine placed transversally, three speed gearbox with shaft drive system, 23 hp, and the bottom rear part of the frame was a functional exhaust.

The Igor Chak's view for the 2012 IZH concept is astonishing
