Assuming your goal is to learn touch typing in Russian on Windows, you
might try any of the available Windows- or web-based Russian typing
tutors. I also assume you can read Russian; if this is the case, just
google for клавиатурный тренажёр and choose one you like.

I do not understand the part about "no Cyrillic fonts". Windows has
had Cyrillic support out of the box since at least Windows 2000.
(Non-Unicode and console programs might not be able to use Cyrillic
unless you change the global system locale; this can be worked around
by using AppLocale which allows setting the locale for specific
applications.)
