Welcome to the forum alainfreyre

That is a very nice Riquimbili, Thank you for sharing.

That looks like a Russian motor but I could be mistaken

Fellows, when i went home yesterday i prepare this other photos of my other MB.I am aircraft engineer,32 years old and a fan of the MB , the sound is unique , economic and easy to built.

But in my country have a vehicle like this is more than a hobby than a necesity for transportation.Cause many people here don´t have the skill or the resources to make a fine and secure ride then the nick name RIQUIMBILY appears in ours ways to name this tipe of Mb.

Is strictly forbiden by the police but i take the chance and on 3 years i desing and built 3 MB using different frames and the same engine riga13D8¡¡The one and only i have¡¡ My mom says that i cuold make a toster fly if i have the chance.I don´t have a worckshop or stores to go to buy all the necesary parts i need, but i do have the helping hand of my friends, my kwnoledge and a lot of patience to resolve the many problems this brings. Is the same that felt the brothers Wright on their very first fligth.

Any way i hope you enjoy it the same i do.

I hope some day whe could make a fine ride on my city, thanck for the support.

In the next theme I placed the link to operation manual Д-8, but it in Russian.

And what exactly interests on electricity Д-8? Light connection? Or what that another?

Yes the seat looks very comfortable. Say there got to be a way to use the forums built in translation features for the Russian engine instructions. Have not tried it just a thought. Welcome to the forum!! Please post lots of motor bike pictures! Would love to see them!
