ММВЗ-3.221
MMVZ-3.221 is a rare Soviet motocross motorcycle. It was produced in small batches for training in DOSAAF (Soviet voluntary society for assistance to the Army, Aviation and Navy). After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, production ceased, and now there are very few such motorcycles left.
The motorcycle was built on the basis of the famous MMVZ-3.112 Minsk.
The frame is of an original design. The suspensions were highly reliable. Thanks to forcing, the engine power increased to 20 HP – an impressive result for a 125 cc engine. The only common features with the serial model are the crankcase and the gas tank, which was also well suited for motocross. The engine reached 8500 rpm.
The competitors of the model can be called the Czech motorcycle CZ 125 and the Soviet IZh K-16, which was more popular in the USSR.
