Good morning Art and all,

In the Wednesday, 16 April 14 pulp edition of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, is an article titled "A Motorcycle With a Side of Russian History" . It's on page D4.

The article, along with a picture of a post WWII model of the Ural Patrol motorcycle, mentions a couple of history points such as being manufactured in city of Irbit, USSR, during WWII.

Believe the WSJ is subscription only on web but the pulp article in front of me does have a note "For more photos of John Gay's Ural Patrol, go to WSJ.com/cars.

Hopefully above of value.


Warm regards,

Bob

If you want more details about Soviet motorcycles, the best reference is "50 de motos russes-Ural et Dnepr", published by the French editor ETAI in 2005.
