Easy to maintain, reliable. And nostalgic design. Sadly there’s none of this bike in Malaysia.

I think the fat tyres may not fit the swinging arm, Things are a bit tight around there with the stock frame. The Ural Wolf custom had a completely different frame to accomodate a fat rear tyre.

I have both a solo & sidecar 650 and think that the 650s are a more attractive motor with the rounded barrels, heads & rocker covers. Maybe that’s a good retro move for the factory to make…

Setting the record straight: “Well, Russian engineers basically stole BMW’s design of the R71 and completely reverse engineered it into the basic Ural motorcycle. They succeeded, and it’s safe to say they’re as reliable as the bikes they were based on”

Not true! As part of the Warsaw Pact just before the war, Germany agreed to sell Russia the rights to build their own R71′s in return for continued shipments of raw timber and coal. Ironically, these shipments continued to Germany for days even after the Danzieg incident.

Just saying, they didn’t steal it and reverse engineer it – they had the blueprints

” … yes I have a New Ural ST Solo. Rode it today for 130 miles in the fog from the Sacramento Valley back to the Coast. It’s a great bike. Handles and performs just like my first BMW from 1974. I’ve got 3700 km on it now and haven’t had a problem. It gets 45 mpg and will do 90 mph with throttle to spare. As to the short service interval Ural has doubled the interval for the new Solo’s from a sidecar rig. (every 5,000 km vs 2500 km) ”
