Brief History of the Marque: Izh
Best known as the manufacturer of Kalashnikov rifles, Izh produces
motorcycles which were almost unknown in the west until quite recently.
Since 1927 the factory has produced some 11 million of them. In the twenties
they produced small numbers of American-style large capacity V-twins, but
from the early 1930s built mostly smaller capacity two-strokes copied from
German models, principally Adler and DKW.
An excellent history of the marque is available here:
Here is IZHEVSK MOTORCYCLES homepage:

The 2006 range consists of
Izh Planeta 5 (350cc) - the most popular model of work motorcycle
Izh Jupiter 5 (350cc) with liquid cooling, convenient for all types
of climate
Izh Yunker (350cc) is built in American style
Izh Cornet Mini cruiser (50cc)
There are also motorcycle sidecar combinations and police motorcycles.

1966 IZH
I bought a 1966 IZH (turquoise-type color) with a custom sidecar to
ride around my grandchildren. Its engine has been rebuilt with 0
miles on it. Because of my bad back, I cannot start it and would like to
sell it to someone who could use and appreciate it. It is in very good
condition overall. I have over $6500 invested in it and would minimally
wish to sell it for that amount.
