my wife is from russia, from what she knows about them, they are the simplest motorcycle one can imagine. they are not very reliable, but are very cheap, can buy one for a few hundred dollars. everyone in ukraine and russia has ural motorcycles, they can't afford anything else. also they are not very fast.
by the way, if you find a place in the states that sells them, let me know!

The Ural design was taken from BMW. I can't remember the exact model, maybe an R50?
Take a look at the motor itself. It's a boxer. If you take a 70's BMW and put it next to a 90's Ural, you will see they look about the same.
It's my understanding, that they are fairly reliable. Not very fast, not very high tech.
But, if you're looking for something different, something not a lot of people are riding, then take a close look at them...

Does anybody know anything about Urals? Good, bad, or....?

Wow, never heard of Urals and then I find out the place here in town was dealer of the year! They sell an enduro bike down there, too. Really cheap. I'd like to have a sidecar bike.
