Title: Ural 2-wheeler
Post by: Toxz Qwaste on April 17, 2013, 11:21:00 AM
I'd like to have one but I probably wouldn't buy one.  I think it's running a little lean on the left cylinder.
Look! A modern fork!

I been wanting a Ural for the past couple of years.  Hopefully this will be the year.

And I dont want the modern fork.  I like the Earls leading link fork. ;)

Not in the two wheel version.... That front end was designed for use with a sidecar and does not lend itself well to 2 wheel use.

I'd love to have a 2wd sidecar, I just can't see paying the money they're asking for them.

Agreed about the $$. I was reading an article in MotorCyclist mag about a sidecar trip with the author and his young daughter when I showed the pics to my son and asked: whould you like to do this? and his face lit up and said YESSSS! Then I thought to myself - oh crap. So, we're going helmet shopping this weekend and I'm going to take him for his first ride on the C-10. No, it doesn't have a side car but I don't think he'll notice.
