LEARNING TO RIDE THE URAL MOTORCYCLE WITH
The Ural sidecar motorcycle, since it has three wheels, behaves quite differently from either a solo mo-
torcycle or a car. For these reasons the following label has been attached to your mo tor cy cle tank:
WARNING: LEFT-HAND AND RIGHT-HAND TURNS MAY BE DANGEROUS. EXCESSIVE SPEED AND AN UN-
The bottom line is that, like any other motor vehicle, if the Ural is driven beyond its design limits, you
can get hurt. Properly driven, since you have the added stability of the third wheel in case of sand, ice
or slippery road conditions, the Ural will give you a much safer ride than a solo mo tor cy cle.
Finally, you will enjoy the fact that the Ural will not expose you to tipping over at stop signs, which has
happened all too frequently to beginners as well as experienced solo motorcycle drivers.
This manual is included with each new Ural sidecar motorcycle out t. Before driving your new Ural ,
carefully study this manual from cover-to-cover, ll in the exam questions, review the man u al to check
your answers and practice all the maneuvers outlined in the manual before going out into traf c.
If possible, an experienced sidecar driver (preferably your Authorized IMWA dealer) should ride along
during your rst ride. If not, put about 100 LB of ballast in the sidecar during your initial training. Al-
though an experienced driver can safely drive the Ural with an empty sidecar a be gin ner should always
have ballast or a passenger in the chair.
Check with your local IMWA Dealer to nd out your particular state’s sidecar driver’s license
When you accelerate, the Ural will pull slightly to the right due to the inertia and drag of the side car.
When you let off the gas it will pull slightly to the left due to the inertia of the sidecar.
