legendary durability in harsh conditions.
Today, the motorcycle manufacturers are planning with the help of computer and test the durability of parts in special machines. But in the end they can’t avoid and the tests of their own motorcycle, for which they have special sections for drivers and engineers that they test it on various parts of the world.
The Ural is throwing the weight of the latest stress tests of the motorcycle. And we mean that he takes them out the oil, since the air-cooled flat-2 with the side-car and the traffic on two wheels, they have the reputation that they do not stop anywhere.
As you will see in the video below, the Ural 3×2 are tested in incredible “streets” around the mud and rocks, and pass through rivers so deep, they sink and are lost before coming back out the other side! And they work in the water without appearing to have introduction with σνόÏκελ!
It is also said that the tests do senior executives of the factory – something which the guy who posted the video exploits to do and a little humor.
Bear in mind that the technology of the first Ural was a BMW and it took the Soviet Union from the ναζιστικήΓεÏμανία the 1939 non-aggression pact Molotov-von Ribbentrop pact. Since then, of course, the motorcycles have evolved numerous times, but they remain loyal to the level of two-cylinder, air-cooled engine in a tubular frame with the “basket”, which has movement in the wheel.
The Ural, of course, is not the giant state-owned company of the soviet period. Has been privatized and shrunk a lot, but continues with the same basic philosophy.
Now see the video to feel a bit “lame” if you’re riding a motorcycle…
