I really wanted the Oktober Guard to have a small scout vehicle that was actually based on something that was in use by the Soviet Union before its collapse. The process of finding a suitable motorcycle to represent the Ural MW-750 was extremely difficult. I found the Indiana Jones The Last Crusade German motorcycle and remembered that the Ural motorcycle was a reverse engineered BMW motorcycle from the World War II era. I also knew that I wanted my Mongoose to have a side car just like the Ural MW-750. Part of this was so that the Oktober Guard could have a light machine gun on its scout vehicle giving it minor offensive capabilities. I went with a more rugged look for the motorcycle and I thought of it as a hybrid, a classic motorcycl with and advanced engine. I wanted a motorcycle that was capable of traveling over all types of terrain while performing its scout missions. While not an exact replica of the Ural Mw-750 I think this is a very believable motorcycle for the Oktober Guard. As always all comments and critiques are welcome!!! Be sure to swing by the Bunker for more images of the Mongoose.
