Hello.
Here's some pics of my homebuilt Riga/ D8 racing bike.
In Estonia there's a whole racing leaque of similar bikes, the engine block and cylinder has to be from "D" type, but can be freely altered. Typical bike has reed valve intake, highly tuned water cooled cylinder, PVL ignition and lot's of custom made racing parts inside.

Yes, that "Old Dryer Ring" takes place aroud that old dryer on the picture.
There have been D-races in all sort of places.
That motocross style D-race on video was held in tiny island of Prangli near Tallinn.You have to take a boat to get to that island.That boat made quite few trips that day to get all the racers with their mopeds to island.And sea was really rough that day, lots of :geek:
