I love the Urals too, but my China Rider mentality is fine with a CJ750 (sans sidecar).

My goodness! When did a used Ural become worth $7,000! 8O However, I'm pretty sure any other motorcycle with a sidecar would probably be much more expensive.
P.S. I agree; they are very cool. Spud

Hey I scored a ride on a Ural sidecar rig!
One of my patients has one and offered for me to have a go on it! I'll be sure to report my impressions and share pictures.
