I think it might be a russian IMZ-URAL. |

Ural M-63 or M-66. It has rear swing-arm suspension, so the year is from 1963. |

notice the burned appearance of this combo? its the same machine which was blown up in the 1979 Harrison Ford movie "Hanover Street". |

This is not M-63 and not M-66. This is M-61 "Irbit", cause i have one of them =) Edited: Sorry, my mistake - M-61 have another fuel tank, it's M-63 ![]() -- Last edit: 2009-04-07 16:48:03 |

They really should have used a Chinese built Chang Jiang; a BMW R71 clone. The Chang Jiang is almost identical to the BMW R71, and much more period than a Russian M-63. Is this supposed to be an R75? As it's far from one. I rode a Chang Jiang for 12 years and easily converted it to an R71 by remounting the front fender, simplifying the air filter, and adding BMW emblems and a period tail-lamp. They spent a lot of money to build a German "Tiger," only to have Captain Miller die against to a post-war Russian motorcycle? My only fault to this masterpiece of a film, that I take personally. |

Although the bike was a "fake", it actually had a genuine Zundapp sidecar attached to it. It was supplied as a static prop but was repaired and made to run for a while. Aside from use on screen it was used also to ferry the mechanic's tools around on set. It also appears moving in a panoramic shot of the beachead near the top of the frame. The engine gave up again shortly after that. |

M-63 with M-63 sidecar, but not 1964. Early M-63 used the the tank and mudguards from the M-62, and had a different rear mudguard mount. |
