Classic motorcycles "Minsk" are back

New models enter series production

In the automotive and motorcycle sector, there is often a return to established brands that carry sentimental value and practicality. The latest example of this is the restart of production of motorcycles with the "Minsk" brand. After a successful test series in 2025, the production line is now operating on the two main models - Hunter and Ranger.

The machines are designed to work in rough terrain and specific conditions. The Hunter is equipped with an engine with a displacement of 150 cc, while the more powerful Ranger relies on a 200 cc unit. These technical characteristics position them as an optimal solution for users involved in hunting and fishing, as well as for novice motorcyclists looking for easy-to-handle equipment.

The press service of “MotoVeloZavod“ emphasizes that the main goal of the project was to preserve the simplicity of operation, characteristic of the brand in the past, but to combine it with current industry standards. The new versions are distinguished by increased environmental friendliness: The engines meet modern emission requirements, with improved safety: Structural changes guaranteeing greater stability and safety for the driver and with functional comfort: Ergonomics, tailored to the needs of the modern consumer.

For the market, the return of “Minsk“ means the appearance of budget and unpretentious motorcycles that fill the niche between cheap Chinese analogues and expensive proven off-road motorcycles. At the moment, however, their export to Europe is unlikely to be possible.
