This is my first FAQ video with some footage of us riding on Interstate 74 in North Carolina. I go through many of the questions we are asked while riding and some we've received via email.

If you have considered buying a Ural or own one and avoid the interstates or have a dog you want to get to ride, you will probably want to watch all of this video.

Answers are based on our experience with the 2008 Tourist and 2010 Patrol and newer rigs. If you have or buy an older Ural (such as a 1996) then my comments about handling, speed, maintenance etc... may not apply. The oldest Ural I've ever ridden is the 2008 Tourist.
