Dnepr. K 750's were only ever built by Dnepr. |

I am not an expert on this, just spent my childhood in Ural M-66 sidecar :), so I personally agree. The question was whether I had to choose between Dnepr and KMZ makes, see @Cossack note here: /vehicle.php?id=260429 To make it even more complicated, some russian motocycle-oriented sites I like read K-750s were produced by both KMZ and IMZ, e.g: https://ironhorse.ru/kmz/k-750/ |

It concerns a more general problem with soviet and some other makes when it was a usual business to produce the same vehicle model at different factories within the USSR or to give technical documentation from one factory to another, like GZA/PAZ/RARZ/KAVZ 651. Many of 8-wheel MAZ missile carriers were produced at KZKT in Siberia, but, as far as I undestand, the site sticks to original maker. |

IMZ & KMZ both built M-72's, the K-750 was unique to and developed by KMZ and was the 1st bike to use the Dnepr brand name. |

thank you for clearing this up and I suggest renaming these to Dnepr make: /vehicles.php?make=KMZ&model=K-750&modelMatch=1&modelInclModel=on /vehicles.php?make=KMZ&model=K-750+M&modelMatch=1&modelInclModel=on |
