Just for your all information as i was again last weekend in Russia and had a chat with a guy who run into problems when riding in Russia with motorcycle using business visa.
If your going to Russia with motorcycle you need to always have culture visa. Motorcycle travelling in Russia using busines visa is against legistlation and can get you into trouble (not big ones but means some extra money loss) I know VISA's are not checked very regularly by police anymore in Russia (and i doubth if even all regular police knowns this) but to stay on safe side i in future always apply culture visa for motorcycle travelling.
Business visas are cheaper to apply and issue so that is reason why most agencies deliver them to traveller. I have also had one as i used different agent i normally use. Now it is culture visa.
