Motorcycle specifications Ural750 Adventure Prikljucenie 2019 The Russian border

ADVENTURE is the word of the decade to describe motorcycles with both small and large escapades. Africa Twin Adventure, GS Adventure, KTM Adventure, Triumph Adventure range, V-Strom pack Adventure..... There's no need to say any more - we understand the concept. No need to specify the name of this new limited edition of the Ural sidecar.

this machine is the most emblematic in its category. Not for its reliability or performance, but for its longevity, tank-like lightness and indestructible appearance. For this special series, nothing less than a tribute to its nation and its thousands of kilometers of roads. Through woods, time zones and almost through time.

a pretty cool and flashy design. A nod to France with that blue-white-red? Not at all! Take a closer look: this Ural wears a white-blue-red dress, the colors of the Russian flag. Even the tubes of the frame, swingarm and basket chassis are painted. Note the compass sticker on the tank and front of the basket, and the ultimate in kitsch, the blue seats.

based on the Ranger, the Adventure gets its structure, its lung-busting 40 hp twin, its two-wheel drive, its spare wheel installed in a specific luggage rack and its Goldwing weight. To justify its name as well as its mission, this Soviet sidekick gets additional equipment. The manufacturer presents it as a sporty model.... Sport à la russe, which means survival rather than performance. That's why this model is equipped with an Italian GPR 2-in-1 exhaust system with high-position muffler, 5 compression-adjustablehCS compression/expansion dampers, LED headlight, Heidenau K37 tires, and all the gear you need for an impromptu camp: a Lone Rider tent and, hang on, a few logs to light a fire between the night and the clearing.

that's the magic of Ural's limited productions: there will only be 20 of them, they'll cost as much as a maxi-trail, and they'll sell like hotcakes. But that's not the point. With a sidecar, the adventure begins as soon as the key is turned in the ignition. Going far away, fetching bread, camping on the banks of the Rhine or in front of your neighbor's house because you've blown a quarter - all these things are priceless. Just like memories and lost roads that we dream of rediscovering.
