Ural moto dalesman sidecars from f2 motorcycles ltd

Ural motorcycle and sidecar combinations offer a unique and exciting way to tour and explore. Rugged and reliable, the Ural is at home both on twisty, tarmac roads and more demanding off-road tracks. With good ground clearance, reverse gear and large carrying capacity, the Ural is a truly versatile and capable machine both for every day use and long distance adventures.

The Factory. The Ural factory in Irbit, Siberia, produces two complete combinations for the UK market - the Dalesman, and the Dalesman Gear-up. Ural do not make change for change’s sake, and the current models are the result of around 50 years of steady development. Some things have remained as they were 50 years ago such as reverse gear, hand brake, integral steering damper, strong duplex frame design, and an incredibly torquey engine. To bring the bikes up to date, many detailed changes have taken place under the surface of this well-proven package, including a high output 12volt alternator, electric start, electronic ignition, CV carburetors, unleaded valve seats, disc front brake, improved gearbox, European seals and bearings, and new timing gears.

F2 Motorcycles and Ural. All Ural products supplied by us receive a comprehensive pre-delivery inspection including a partial engine strip to check and adjust tolerances, all exposed areas are treated with ACF50 to help prevent rust, and the carburetors and ignition are altered to our own specification. Every new bike is then personally test ridden by David to ensure that it meets his exacting standards before the tank is brimmed with fuel. This lengthy preparation does mean that we usually have a short waiting list, but we feel this is the only way to supply quality.

Ural Dalesman Gear-Up. The Ural Dalesman Gear-Up has a military look with the minimum of chrome and matt paint. Standard equipment includes - black engine crash bar, black wheel rims, green light brackets, green side panel, green boot hinges, knobbly spare wheel, pump, tonneau cover, tool kit, touch up paint, black mirrors, luggage rack over spare wheel.

A Word About Tyres. The Ural Dalesman Gear-Up is supplied from the factory with an extremely knobbly Russian rear tyre. This tyre is legal and approved for use on the road when fitted to a Ural. However we have many years experience of supplying Urals and often to people who have never ridden a bike with a sidecar before. We feel that the slightly uneasy feeling this tyre gives the bike when fitted to the rear wheel does not help to inspire confidence if you are new to sidecars. All Gear-Up models leaving here will be fitted with a European block pattern tyre on the rear unless you ask us not to. This service is free of charge and you will still receive the loose Russian knobbly tyre as a spare to fit once you have gained a little sidecar experience using the block pattern tyre.

On The Road Prices. At F2 we like to keep things simple so the prices on this page are for the latest specification motorcycle combination complete and ready for the road. On the road prices include VAT, 12 month/6000 mile parts & labour warranty, 12 months road tax, registration fee, number plate, pre-delivery inspection & our preparation, full tank of fuel, toolkit and service instructions and riding instruction by David at F2 Motorcycles Ltd. We spend some time with you when you collect explaining the bike and answering any questions you may have.
On the road prices exclude your insurance and delivery to your home.

We are doing our best to hold Ural prices as low as possible, but there have been huge increases from the factory due the specification improvements and the cost of raw materials. Our price is £9295 including all taxes.

Self Maintenance Option. This gives customers the option of doing there own servicing from new. The warranty remains as parts and labour. In the event of a warranty claim customers can choose to fit parts themselves (which will be supplied by us free of charge), or they can bring the bike back to us and the parts will be fitted (again parts and in this case labour will be free of charge) throughout the warranty period. If you choose this option remember that F2 Motorcycles Ltd will not leave you unsupported. We are only at the end of a phone.

Sidecar Law. You can ride a motorcycle and sidecar if you have a full motorcycle licence. If wish to ride an outfit on L-plates, the following information should be useful.
In order to ride a motorcycle and sidecar combination all learner motorcyclists are required to complete a CBT course before being allowed to ride with ‘L’ plates. The combination should have a power to weight ratio not exceeding 0.16 kW/kg. All full car licence holders, regardless of when they passed their test, are required to complete a CBT course before riding a combination with ‘L’ plates. A CBT certificate is valid for two years from the date of course completion. Learners can not carry a pillion or side car passenger.

Rumours and Truth. Anyone who knows us will know we do not usually get involved with silly rumours, choosing to just ignore them when we can. There is a rumour at the moment that we feel we can not ignore. Some people are spreading a rumour that the factory has closed and production has stopped. This is simply not true. The factory is still very much open and we are still receiving regular deliveries of Ural motorcycles. Now in stock, latest specification Urals.

Prices and Stock. There are a few Ural web sites in Europe which list prices lower than ours. These are always out of date web sites and have not been updated. Our site is updated every time there is a change to specification or price. We always have Urals actually in stock so you can come and see them. We do not publish out of date prices to try and get your interest and then change the price when you arrive here. The price on our web site is the price for a new specification Ural from our stock. If you see a site offering what looks like a better deal please phone the site owners, ask the exact "on the road" price, ask if the bike is in stock and check the specifications carefully.
