– 2012 Ural Retro Review
2012 Ural Retro
Still living in the past and loving it?
The Retro has the look of motorcycling days gone by, but many of the amenities afforded by modern technology. Take to those twisting, country roads with a bike that begs the question…
“Where does that road go?”
A stylish look from the thirties with the technology and reliability of the 21st century. This is by far the most technologically advanced bike that one can purchase with the true Pre-WWII look and the best-in-class 2 year Unlimited Mileage Factory Warranty. The Ural Retromodel is dramatically different from all other Ural models. The Retro is wider, longer and lower to the ground for better handling. It has a different bike frame, side car frame, wheels (18″ vs. 19″), suspensions, head lamp styling, tear-drop style gas tank, fenders, running lighting, foot brake pedal arrangement and much more.
