1974 - 1976 Dnepr MT 10[edit | edit source]
Dnepr MT 10, simply the best of the OHV Dneprs made. The MT 10 has a wonderfully smooth and well balanced motor. The later MT11 have a reputation for snapping their cranks, the MT 10 does not. You do have to put up with 6 volt electrics on the earlier MT9, and even single leading shoe front brakes (the MT11 twin leading shoe fits straight on).
