Kalabar Creations of Prescott, Arizona are sincere, professional Ural enthusiasts with many, many years of experience.The accessories they fabricate are well thought out, well built and look great. When you see the items offered by Kalabar you wonder how you previously survived without them. I recently install the spare tire carrier which mounts vertically to the outer rear location of the sidecar. It looks wonderful with the leather straps as you can see in the video and offers significant improvement in handling when cornering. I have no association with the company with the exception being a very satisfied customer.
Amazing build. You did not talk about the relocated spare though! We need to know more about that.
I love the side mount spare tire. I wish she would have said something about it.
Same!
Love the Kalabar accessories. They understand Urals. However I am less sure that the people at overland expo do. Ural themselves as well as the major dealers, (Raceway, and Alpha) among others, already produce accessories that I feel better suit the Ural overlanding esthetic. A Ural Geo is a very similarly kitted out bike.
However knowing that this bike is half advertisement for the other companies involved and for the expo itself explains their decisions. While I may not be a fan of some parts of the bike, overall it's a Ural and each one is unique once their owners start customizing, I know mine is.
I like the look of it, but with a couple of passengers you're probably over the weight limit... especially with that fridge.
Yeh, too much weight in the back can destabilize the rig.
Nice video,though colour solution is matter of taste,too much white as for me..But main concern would be in couple of years, if you break any of these fancy white extras,will they supply spares..or by that time new " special version" will be on the market and accessories for this version will become not available.. Talking from experience, attempted once to order the sidecar speaker for older Baikal versions,but was told It was no longer available on the market and the dealer redirected me to the Amazon for any alternative choice. Also wonder how brown leather straps will look like after couple dirt rides...practical ride aspect is questionable
How are the Kalabar racks better than the Urals? What metal are they, steel, aluminum, other? Are those slots in the racks chamfered? Otherwise or even with, it seems it would not take long to cut through those straps, not a fan. That headlight guard seems like it would block a lot of light, so you need those extra lights. Those leather straps, and bag, may be good in dry climates but what about in the wet?
The winch pulls a ton???? Really or 2,000 pounds / 1,000Kg or was it a figure of speach?
Maybe next time maybe a presenter who is a little less caffeinated?
Spare tire mounting there, how? No handguards?
Agree with a few of the post, relocating the spare tire is a huge change. Yet she forgot to mention how it’s mounted, and obviously it must have free play from the sidecar.
With all the steel, alu, leather, fridges, racks, kits, lights, etc... that thing has to be very out of wack weight wise.... I though mine was heavy but good grief. Definitely going to need that wench 😁. I definitely like that fender rack, but $400+ ?????
I'm not a fan of powder white. Colors should match the bike colors.
I think they did that so the parts would stand out on the demo.
Spare tire setup??? Please let us know.
Doesn’t seem all that long ago you couldn’t give these Eastern Block BMW copies away. Have they improved reliability, fuel consumption and road speed potential. It looks like it should work, but is it an around the world adventurers dream?
What could be more troublesome than a Soviet Union copy of an out of date Germany motorcycle. Urinal is what we call it. I had a friend that bought one a few years ago, and told him the Ural would suck. Every time he tried to ride with us it broke. We told him we can't keep waiting on the side of the road in Texas for a flat bed truck to take that thing to the shop. No one would work on it, especially the BMW dealers. He gave it away and bought a Honda.
This bike looks ridiculous , so much unnecessary crap . Leave Ural to ural unless you want to lose the real utility of the bike .
