I've got John (beaver island) covered.
But looks like there's another guy in this thread that Hercule'd his as well.

Good deal. I see you posted before me. Not trying to one-up ya.
Mine is a leftover from when I tipped it a little too hard.

This is yours for shipping.

The pot metal light bulb assembly broke inside my left turn signal assembly. Snapped in two This is the round type. Don’t even need the amber lens or bulb or even the round plastic frame. Just the metal part that holds the biulb and hot wire. Thanks Let me check my parts box later today. I might ha...

I must be missing something here (not surprising :? ) Doesn't an increase in altitude result in less oxygen available to mix with the (fixed) amount of fuel supplied by the carburetor jetting, thus requiring leaner jets to maintain some desired air/fuel ratio? Obviously if a plug chop indicates a t...

42/123 should be acceptable jetting for your altitude without getting lean.
The idle drop can happen just from running in a lower gear with higher RPM and the engine heats up. I've had this happen on mine off and on.

Thanks for the votes of confidence folks! One of the reasons I have done lots of write-ups and posts on here is a basically a service record. socklessman was able to research my adventures and know what has been done and how it's taken care of. I'm glad my bike is going to good hands and will be app...

This is a Steeds Special Price. Owning a Ural would not have been nearly as enjoyable without this site.

2011 Ural Patrol - Gloss White - 19,500km - Selectable 2WD Although we have used our ride in almost every environment, we have also taken extremely good care of it with regular w.ashings, w.axings, and maintenance done on schedule. It is well sorted and happily cruises down the road with ease. On to...

I want this sooooo bad. But, no, I will not be driving 4 days for it. :lol: The problem a "unit" with a snowplow has here in mountain west is #1-hills + #2-lots of snow. My Suz ATV does not have a lot of power to zoom up and down my driveway hill. It uses the 4WD traction to get up and down. I thin...

All pictures are 'photoshopped' copies of a few starters. All the control cables make identical shapes and all the tire valves are in exactly the same positions.

That's the best photoshopped video I've ever seen!

I have to say that I really do like the look of the bobber. The blue with the blacked out engine is a nice touch.
Hopefully the marketing geni..... I mean floor sweeper learned his lesson.

It wont let me use the correct spelling the word is witch but spelt with a b. It's probably one of those auto-change words set up in the forum. Kinda like w.a.s.h.e.d changes to w@$#ed. But we know what you meant. :D Merry Christmas to you both. I hope you are enjoying yourselves and have a very ha...
