If I Had a Ton of Money and a 10 Car Garage... #1



It's a Ural. It's Russian. The side car is standard equipment.
My understanding is that the Russians stole the engine design from BMW during WWII. They are still using the basic 1940's BMW engine to make these. I can see at least one upgrade since I last checked these bikes out. A single front disk brake! When I saw these bikes about 10 years ago (there was a dealership in Sacramento back then) they still had the old drum brakes. What fun this would be!
