Voskhod motorcycle

Voskhod (Russian: Восхо́д, lit. 'Sunrise') is the name of several types of motorcycles produced at the Degtyaryov Plant in the Russian town of Kovrov since 1965.

All Voskhod motorcycles had a single-cylinder two-stroke engine with a displacement of 175 cc.

Between 1973 and 1979 Voskhod was one of the makes marketed by SATRA in the United Kingdom as Cossack motorcycles.

The Voskhod was introduced in 1957. For many this was a luxury model of the Minsk (125cc) K-55. In 1964 the Voskhod was made in a racing version.
