History

Gorky Motorcycle Plant commenced operations in 1941 with the transfer of plant and equipment from Kharkov Motorcycle Plant and Leningrad Motorcycle Plant, which was necessitated by the German armies threatening Kiev and Leningrad.
Production ceased in 1949 and all plant and equipment was transferred to KMZ in Kiev. About 100 employees moved to Kyiv as well.
