I live in the U.S. now. Voshod-2 was my first riding experience (If you don´t count the mopeds like Verhovina and Karpatu). My grandfather sold the bike when he sold the summer house. I´m looking to purchase another Voshod simply because it was a great 2stroke to work on as well as ride it. The biggest problem with that bike was the muffler but you treat it as something that comes with the vibration of a 2stroke bike. Let me know by email as I will not be posting here again. Thanks.
