I have the Dnepnr with the ME 1003. I will be transitioning to an AC-30.
The little ME 1003 performs pretty well. Just a note, it may be my bike (older '83 MT-16) but I wouldn't want to go anywhere near 70 mph on it. 45 to 50 seems scary enough. The newer Ural's may be more refined machines but sidecar dynamics may be a limiting factor as far as speed.

I have an 89 mt16 dnepr and was think of going electric. Can you share how you did yours

[Edited by Mod, I think this is what he meant to do]

my Dnepr is finally in the finishing stages with AC-30 (an older version of AC-35) and 1238-6501 controller
It was direct drive and did ok, but I put in a 2:1 reduction using gates synchronous belt. It now goes as fast as I would want to go on this bike. The AC-30 motor plate states 35 hp max 10 hp continuous. its geared to go about 50mph.

Will do and thank you! It works well. I ended up about 1 degree out vertically, gates specs 1/4 degree so I will work on that.

Gates synchronous belt and sprockets
Here is shots It is exactly 2:1. My dnepr final drive is 4.6:1 which I believe would be similar to ural. Top speed is low 50-55 but hill climbing is really good. And bike accelerates briskly. But If the transmission fits I would tend to keep it for the flexibility.
