Ural Motorcycle News

Attach a sidecar to your motorcycle and bundle up and you too can ride the open highways 12 months of the year.

In one area after another the economy seems finally to be stirring to life. Reports from three motorcycle companies this week give further support to the resurgence.

Blustery winter weather last week couldn't stop the notorious Thong Man from putting in an obligatory appearance at the Friday the 13th motorcycle rally in Port Dover, Ont.

This Ural PR piece hit my inbox yesterday and it got me thinking. What is it about the Ural that has them on the upswing while so many other bikes are collecting dust on showroom floors? That M70 anniversary model we wrote about just over a month ago sold out in less than 2 weeks.

The Gear-Up is just one of the models that Ural has been successful in producing helping boost their sales in 2011.
