Giggles guaranteed - wild Ural side car adventure with two girls screaming
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 тра 2024
- Here's part two of the Ural sidecar adventure in Portugal....and we finally get the two of us riding side by side! Double trouble fun! Sidecars have totally blown my expectations. I honestly didn't think it would be quite such a hoot. The bit that really makes it for me is the experience with a friend. Riding up next to each other, able to chat and giggle, absorbing and sharing the adventure but also co depending on each other. I have to ensure the bike and sidecar are powered and controlled but Emma has to manoeuvre her weight to support. I need her like she needs me. It's a wonderful experience for two, especially when one is not a rider or less into bikes. We've had so many giggles today!
We visited the Ural Experience Centre in Portugal to get some training on how to ride an adventure sidecar motorcycle. This video is day 2 and 3 with Ural. I hope you enjoy!

Well done Ladies on joining the Sidecar family. I have been riding Sidecars for more that 45 years. Have had the opportunity of riding many different ones over the years, including the Ural. I have two BSA Outfits, a 1922 ( yes, 100 years old this year ) and a 1934; 1942 Harley Davidson and a 1981 Moto-Guzzi with a British Squire Sidecar.
Sidecar outfits are fun, different, draws attention where ever you go. They have advantages and dis advantages, in handling from a solo Bike. Yes , it is a skill to ride one. once you have , you have it.
Greetings from Durban, South Africa.
Wow that's so cool. 100 years old too. I'm not surprised it turns heads. Amazing stuff. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your experiences
nice fun movie, really great side car lots good times to be had playing with those Urals really tough units. 🏁
they really are hey, they just pull and keep going
Урал - это супер! Это история из СССР! СПАСИБО!👍👍👍
👍👍👍 thank you, they are fun hey
A fun it is. Did I miss /somewhere/ the tent over the sidecar... for magic nights under the skies on planet earth. Thanks dear!
oh that sounds cool
I love this! Some day I will own a side car bike. Likely a Ural, loved side cars since I was a small child and saw the movie “The Aristacats”.
A lot of fun!
A great two part series that I am sure could be expanded on. It was very enjoyable to see you exploring the peculiarity of handling the Ural sidecar motorcycle. I found it hard to adjust to my Ural Gear Up at first after riding Harley Davidsons for over 35 years. It took a while before feeling like I had much control. At 90km per hour it felt like I was just holding my breath hoping the bike wouldn't twitch left or right after cresting an off camber corner at the top of a hill. Definitely different skill set compared to a regular two wheeled motorcycle. Congratulations on managing to develop those skills in such a short timeframe. Thanks for sharing it was fun to watch.
It's never too late for a happy childhood. . .
Haha I love that line!! So true
I’ve been into the world of Ural since 2005 (2005 Patrol) and I currently own a 2010 Gear Up since new as well. These are the most fun I’ve ever had on a motorcycle (I’ve been riding fifty year plus.) They are a tinkering machines that require allot of attention but if you keep up with that which is for the most part simple they’ll pay you back with miles of smiles. You have to ride them with in their limitations. They are not a highway over 70 mph machine. Also, you,”Drop the clutch”, meaning you don’t drag the clutch, you use your throttle. Reverse…. These rigs can go very fast in reverse. Walking speed only in reverse. They are very unstable in reverse fast and you can flip them over going fast in Reverse! Practice,”flying the chair!” You want to know the feeling of when the sidecar lifts off the ground. Know it. Master it! Practice allot and practice some more! Modern Ural have come light years ahead of even my 2010 Gear up. I’m almost turning the odometer back to zero on mine (100,000 Kms). I co-admin. Soviet Steeds a great place for all things Ural and Russian rigs in general. Lots of great rallies in the U.S. as well with family friendly fun times. Enjoy!
wow love it. That's amazing doing 100km! so many adventures and all that rings sooo true. They're an absolute hoot, although seriously hard work off road hehe. Stay tuned for the rally adventure i did at the weekend on Ural hehe
Very cool, I've been riding a sidecar for 34 years, off and on, but more. I have one fitted to my 1988 Lowrider. I ride mostly solo on my sidecar, I have to move my weight around a lot in corners, it is great fun to hang off the bike in corners.
Oh wow that is epic! Sounds like you get to have a lot of fun!
Great video! Urals are so much fun!
I am a 69 year old Harley rider here in the states but have always thought of trying the Ural with sidecar. Thanks for the entertaining look and the information on 1 wheel vs. 2 wheel drive. I am new to your channel and will be viewing many more of your adventures. Peace and be safe!
Hey Bruce aw mega. Welcome. Thanks for saying hi. Let me know if you try a sidecar sometime
Well done!
Wow How Fun 👊🏾👊🏾At our store we get old running sidecars in to be fixed Harley Davidson They always promise a ride in one. Maybe one day Love your video 👋🏾
I enjoyed this video, it brought a smile to my dial. So much so I subscribed. Cheers!
Aw yey thank you. Welcome. That’s super lovely to hear
Great fun and thanks for the trip from both of you .
Our pleasure. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment
@@TheGirlOnABike Your welcome .
Awesome 👍🏽 and different experience for sure.
♥️
Cannot wait for your future plans together. Twice the fun and twice the figures for sure.
You sure do put 100% into all that you do Vanessa.
Sure nice having other mc areas explored and shared with all us your and Emma's adventure in Portugal.
Hope you have a good and sunny week ahead with more adventures.
thanks Mike. Emma will be leaving to row the atlantic tomorrow or the day after, weather window pending, and so when she is back I defo plan to rope her into some more fun hehe
What a cool experience. Quite extraordinary. And it's possible to ride offroad, too.
Thanks, Günter form Nürnberg/Germany
It is a copy of BMW R75.... but the German version comes with MG42 mount on sidecar.. how cool is that ?
@@olegfsu I'm happy that these MG42-times are over ;-)
hehe thanks
Great video thank you very much, When in Ontario Canada I had 2 - 2 wheel drive models and loved them, but the first year with the fuel injector had to take it in a lot and get it remapped a lot. also a lot of trouble with the break system, the carb model was ok but lacking power. If they had a dealer hear on Prince Edward Island I would have another one. But not the bike I would want with no dealers around. At 73 I want to ride not a lot of maintenance. Hope they are better now. But over 1,000 to the nearest dealer not good. With the island being home to a lot of retired people I think this would be a great place for a dealer ship, but would take some time to build up a good customer base. I love side car rigs but do not like trikes or revers trikes. as you are sitting in the center of the lane instead of where you should be.
A great video, fun but with some really great info. My Ural Retro Classic arrives tomorrow… I’ll be taking it easy I think.
aw yey, thanks Marcus. So appreciate you taking the time to let me know you enjoyed
Fantastic
Really enjoyed this sidecar series. I’ve toyed with the idea of getting a Ural many times and to be honest, I never realized or even thought about the driving of it and the handling being completely different. Thanks for putting this out. Cheers!
aw my pleasure, thanks for watching. I'd suggest looking up Ural experience Portugal with Rob and Zayne - that's who I was with here - as they do a range of experience options. Means you can have a fun Portugal adventure and see if sidecars are for you at the same time
An easy way to crash and burn. Nothing is intuitive, but get on top of a combo and it’s fun. But you’ll fucking scare yourself until you do!! Bitter experience!!
Give it a try , the worst that can happen is you don’t like it! It’s so different to anything else you’ll do. Once you get the hang of the differences it can become addictive! I’d recommend an experience with a skilled driver. Using the throttle as power steering is a blast.
Would a side car bike be ok for a beginner rider? I took the Harley riding academy and haven't gotten a bike yet.
Such a great intro to sidecars. My wife and I have done a lot of 2 wheel touring together. So, I could see she was a little discouraged when I would ride off with my ADV buddies and leave her at home. The Ural has become the best adventure! She has fun in the sidecar and we get to hit the trails in NE of the US where I can show here the beautiful parts of nature that. After decades of riding, I have to say, the Ural is a totally different experience. Thanks for introducing Ural Experience Portugal. We are hoping to do a tour next year.
Oh that's so lovely to hear. Couples out enjoying adventure 🥰❤️👌
I kind of liked the specialized sidecar for its approach. It may be different uses for sidecar is possible. Also the style and or feel is something updated or retro and still has an original idea.
Looks like a great option for a different type of adventure
Yeha exactly. Something different
Best part - flamingo rescue, hilarious :)
Hehe thank lovely. It makes me mega happy you enjoyed big thanks for watching
Dragon wales great gig for the outfit brought the outfit to the last 4 hopefully this February ferry booked fingers crossed
What a great and funny experience.
Thanks Pierre
Great fun, and great fun to watch thanks. Never tried it, but have fond memories of my dad's stories about his outfit days (early 1950s doing his national service in the RAF). He built his own sidecar so he could sleep in it. Also managed to get eight of them back from the pub one night...! Only one detour into a ditch. Now that was an adventure... 👍
Great 👍. More ladies involved in bikes etc the better.
New to the channel. Thinking about getting a Ural soon so this is part of my research.
Yey that is ace, you will have so much fun if you get one, they are mega! Thanks for watching
That weather thou 😎
Oh yeah. Shades on 😎
Well that must be fun too much. I would love to have a ride with this bike if I had...
You'd love it
I just got a ural geo! I’ve put 400 miles on it. Still figuring out how to handle it! Lol especially turns into the carriage! I is a ton of fun though!!
Oh mega!!
Отличное видео, я тоже люблю Уралы с коляской
2 beautiful girls on a beautiful side car, it's cool.
hehe thanks
For the price of a used URAL side car outfit it's like buying the side car and getting the bike for free. Used mine for my primary transportation for 3 years after a leg injury. Lots of fun. Not fast but more smiles 😊😁 per mile than anything else.
oh nice, that's totally fair. Love it
Awesome
♥️
Well done madam as an owner of a 2019 GU I can relate.😃😃😃
♥️♥️
🤓😎🏍💨💨💨💨💨💨👍🏻🇨🇦 thanks for sharing, was very interesting 🥂
No problem 👍
I would love to try this. Been thinking of changing my BMW R100 into a sidecar rig but would like to try one before committing to that.
oh cool. I'd suggest looking up Ural experience portugal with Rob and Zayne - that's who I was with here - as they do a range of experience options. Means you can have a fun portugal adventure and see if sidecars are for you at the same time hehe
You look great with this bike
Aw thank you
yes, finally a sidecar content
hehe and more to come, I just did a rally in the ural haha that was intense
I think you must more often put two lunatics together to come up with some crazy challenges that brings us more great video's to watch😜 So get on with the challenges, girls👊😎(BTW; I haven't ridden a sidecar yet. I think when I'm on the bike you could skip the third wheel and when I sit in the sidecar you will be doing donuts all the time because of the skewed weight distribution that I cause😂)
Only today it occurred to me that Emma bringing that inflatable flamingo along might be understood as a lack of faith in your sanity at the river crossing… 🤔
Only when she saw it was merely a gentle creek she put it down.
Fred, the Flamingo of doubt? 🤨
🤗
haha uh oh! Her motive has been busted! haha
@@TheGirlOnABike Don't tell her though! She'll spontaneously turn her boat around, row up Europe's west coast in no time at all, turn right into river Rhine, then left into river Sieg and I'll have her standing on my door step before I knew it!!1! 🤯 Warmed up for battle, angry and armed with a paddle!!1! 😫
I’d love to have one!
it would certainly be fun!
My lady friend and i loved your video.We are buying a Ural this spring.She really likes your Dainese jacket,but nobody has it in stock in Canada.She is 5'5" and 135lb and slim.Any idea what size would fit her? I can order it online from europe and still save about cdn$200. Regards Ric
It’s an ace jacket hey. Oh gosh. I’d be terrified to recommend badly. I’d say get on the Dainese sizing chart and get a tape measure out. They do come up small so I tend to be a size bigger than normal.
Love the review section of the ‘stock’ side car. So I’m thinking about a dog as a passenger.. would that work …
thank you, glad you enjoyed. Yes defo! Rob and Zayne use the stock body with their two dogs. One goes in the main seat and the other sits in the boot with the door open. They even have little goggles and their own instagram page.. haha instagram.com/gusto_sidecar_dogs/
Whats the name of the sidecar rental in Portugal. We ride sidecars and we visit Portugal often. Can you send us a link? Thank you
It is an official Ural experience center run by moto gusto - www.gustosidecaradventures.com/
Thanks for sharing. That’s one thing I haven’t experienced.
Oh cool. It's definitely a hoot
Ural🤘
yey
HD dealers have a sidecar, trike classes at some of their dealerships. Check it out and find out how much fun they are.
Nice!
❤️
❤️
Well I would fill that sidecar full of beer and ice happy trails
Haha brilliant idea. Sounds fun and dangerous 🤪💪
👏👏👏👏👏❤
❤️️❤️️
"Not high tech, but they have absolutely what you need to have fun." What happened to that concept in production motorcycles? PS: Emma is a perfect motorcycling partner.
Haha yeah its a perfect contradiction haha I'll make sure to pin Emma for another adventure soon hehe
What a hoot! Now, that's my sort of holiday. Hmmmm... and now what's this? Looking at your IG, morE to come? Wooohoo!
hehe yeah more to come!! Rally adventure hehe
👍👍💪😉
I kinda want a Ural, in part because I could ride it year round in upstate New York. I also have an awesome/terrible notion that I want to move to Hawai'i (Kauai in particular) and use a Ural as my main transport.
Sounds like some mega life plans to me!
I have been riding sidecar on the street for years. I would love to have one to take off road.
You should! You'll love it! You can always head to Ural Portugal for an experience. Ace adventure!
dont they have 2 wheel drive ? didnt hear maybe it was mentioned if so sorry
Yeah they do. It’s optional so given they are a beast to turn in two wheel drive you just engage it when you need it. It’s there to get you out of trouble or through really rough stuff. It’s probably mentioning in part one of the videos
Why do i want one of these…. My 18 year old self would never talk to me again
haha they're fun!!
just did a rally in them in Portugal so stay tuned for the riding footage, it was intense!
Hello
Nice video
Can you tell me the model of your pants?
Thanks
They are womens Dainese pants called drake
Interesting stuff but pretty much would like a Ural without the sidecar.
Good retro bike to buy brand new.
haha do true, they look coo. Apparently they ride touch without the sidecar [not that you can buy them individually]
👍 👍 👍 😎 🙂
❤️
I think all bikes could benefit from reverse at times 🤣
I totally agree!! It would be trouble without it on the Ural that's for sure lol
Some large touring bikes like BMW and Goldwing do have reverse.
Не плохо покатались девчонки.класс.
Salute from MK 🫡
🙂
I dream about owning a ural. Most viewers of mine know im keen. Just a little pricey over here.
Oh nice. Good dream to have! You'll get there 👌💪
@TheGirlOnABike >>> 👍👍
{I [still] ❤️ SIDECARS}
EDIT: I once had a pet boa constrictor named _Fred._ Really.
They are amazing right?!
Sorry I can’t get over the crazy eyelashes 👁👁🙃🙃🐕🦺☘️🦘🐨🇦🇺
Haha yeah I'm rather lucky with them. 100% natural 🥰
Plz dear bring me with you
1st
👌
Define really don't need a whole lot of attention simple maintenance that's pretty much about it unless you do something stupid like running out of oil you should also mention that used combinations are much cheaper than buying a new one and cheaper than converting a solo bike to a sidecar bike and if you don't like the sidecar bike you can always sell it I don't like a lot of things that they done to the newer bike with the fuel injection instead of carburetors different size wheels front end parking brake on the drum brakes bikes all the wheels are interchangeable you don't have to do anything stainless steel exhaust system is nice but unnecessary and very expensive along with the German shock and the hydraulic steering dampener you reading the road chassis guys don't want to take it about 50 miles an hour even with the increased engine displacement and the Super Shock and super steering dampener show change to me if all these changes have not improved the bikes and they are superfluous they made so many of the older style by three and a half million and with the expense of the newer one they put out so many fewer a year than what they used to why they don't catch a low production manufacturer exemption from the EU regulations I have no idea because then they would not need fuel injection which causes them to run as hot as hell and are cool boxer Motors are usually the coolest running Motors around
It's amazing how narrow the roads in England and Europe are they certainly weren't made for cars with the speed you can go I don't see why any of those European countries abandoned motorcycles for transport as well as I cars for family transport like they had in the 50s beautiful scenery looks like you're having a lot of fun
Oh no no it is one thing to hang off on a racetrack is something else to hang off on the street and at the speed you go on the street you don't need to hang off I'd be so afraid of my passengers losing their grip and getting run over by a following car just go slow and enjoy the ride for newcomers I recommend reading the sychar Driving Manual that comes with the bike having ballast in the chair taking it slow and practice practice practice be safe out there
Take it out the bloody dog for a ride can't forget the puppy dogs love sidecars
Those tappets are a bit noisy
😀
