    Kind of a small world. I have a 2019 Gear Up in Burnt Orange (same color as your test ride) and also have a Janus Halcyon on order. Love the styling of the Halcyon.

    Spending time rewatching your videos. I have ordered a 2021 or it may be a 2022 to replace Urie, my 2006 Tourist. Glad to here your impressions on the “new” Urals. I hope I can feel a HUGE upgrade, and I do so enjoy my 06 (bought new in 05). Thanks for your efforts!

      I rode a 2008 Tourist, I rode my 2017 Retro Gen1 EFI and now it has Gen2 EFI. I would say in order of performance (least to best) it would be the 2008, 2017 Gen1 EFI, 2019, 2017 Gen2 EFI. The improvement from the 2008 to the 2019 is huge, like two different machines completely. The improvement from 2017 Gen1 to 2019 is mostly about how smooth the engine runs and even power. Going from 2019 to the 2017 Gen2 EFI is nominal improvement in performance, almost a tie really, and does not address any other engine upgrades or improvements on the 2019. The 2021 or 2022 will be a massive up kick from a 2006, hold on tight!

    Fantastic, honest and critical review. I had a 2009 for 5 years and really liked it but didn't like syncing the carbs or it maxing out at 60MPH. I had the OD green gear up. I only used the 2WD twice. I'm toying with the idea of a Ural sometime in the future and I'm interested in the CT. I have heard that the CT is a bit faster due to the lack of the sidecar driveshaft drag. I would ove to see some more displacement and another gear or two.

      Urals have no where near the problems of old. If you get a 2019+ you're likely to have a good time with it. The DEALER makes the difference though, buy from a crap dealer, you'll have a crap motorcycle because they do the finally assembly. Go to SovietSteeds.com to research dealers. Come on in, the water is fine.

Are they a ton of fun and a unique ride you can enjoy, yes! "Understand what you are buying" is the best advice I can give.

    I have to say you always have a great way of describing what you see, feel and hear. The higher angled fuel injection for more foot room and supposedly cooler running engine due to deeper fins is a big plus. I have the 2018 gear up and happy with it but I agree with you to wait for a possibly even better 2020. Thanks for your honest review. I’m sure John at Heindl engineering would have wanted you to tell everyone to rush out and buy the 2019.

    • @GoneUraling

      I think any time is a great time to get a Ural and start riding. The 2019 has it's place and will undoubtedly become a marker point in the history of Ural just like 2014 when the first EFI's were rolled out. It's another step in the adventure. I'm sure Jon will be happy selling whatever people want to buy and servicing it. Honestly, I'm looking and wondering what 2022 or there about is going to bring. I'm pulling for that 5 speed transmission!

    I bought a 2018 at about $5500 cheaper out the door, so no matter what they improved, it’s not gonna be worth that money. I also got a 3.yr warranty, so I’m happy, never thought I’d enjoy such a slow bike. But I’m having a blast, everything I’ve every watched about Ural, everything that got me to actually purchase one of those turds has been on pre 2019 bikes, so keep that in mind

    • @GoneUraling

    • @GoneUraling
      @GoneUraling  5 лет назад +1

      No, I would not. Or I wouldn't have purchased my new M70 Retro last August knowing the 2019's were on the way. I knew they were discontinued and really wanted one, was disappointed then I learned they would not have the 2019 engine available in them. The engine I have I think will do well enough once the bugs are working out of the rest of the rig. Not everyone will agree with me, but I've wanted a Retro since about 1 month after I got my 2008 Tourist (my first rig) in 2015.

    • @GoneUraling
      @GoneUraling  5 лет назад +2

      If you have a good running 2015, I personally don't see much in the way of a difference to go to a 2018. Most of the changes can be had by upgrading. There were some engine improvements in the 2017 and 18 but I think the 2019 is evidence those changes didn't bring the improvements needed or desired to Ural. I personally would ride the 2015 and enjoy it. Now, dropping the Retro and going to a 2019 cT, performance wise, yes, big improvement and not even a cause for hesitation if going from a cT to a cT. But... that Retro is just sweet and handles so well. That would be a tough choice for me but in the end, I think I would hold on to the 2015 Retro and save cash for whats next!

    • @GoneUraling
      @GoneUraling  5 лет назад +2

      The Retro (to me) glides over the road better, is not as harsh, sits lower to the road, absorbs bumps better and is much easier to steer. Great for highway. The Tourist (and the cT) has a much stiffer feel, is harsher on the road and has heavier steering. I prefer the M70/Retro. My wife, while she would like the easier steering, does not like sitting lower to the road or the softer feel of connection to the road. It all boils down to preference, but I like the ride of the M70 much better than the cT or Tourist I had.

    I saw a Janus at show and it sure looked like the same Chinese 250 single that Cleveland Motorworks is putting on their bikes, which are quite a bit cheaper. Cleveland also offers a factory hardtail, the Heist, I think it's called. But for even less money, and pretty much the same fuel economy, if your son loves retro looks, he should look for a 2010 or later Royal Enfield Classic 500. These have closed loop EFI, and are responsive without an extensive warmup. My opinion of RE's engine is that although it's no Honda, it's much more reliable and durable than those chinese 250s.

      It happens to some, and when looked at closely it is often a dealer problem, not always a bike problem. For the best experience, go to a good dealer. If not setup properly in the first place, then followed up with inexperienced repair efforts, you will not have a good time. There is also, for some reason, an occasional real lemon in the bunch, I won't deny it. I will say where we are right now with these two 2017's at about 14,000 miles each, both are doing well.
