Weird Cycle with Posi Rear
 

We had this cool side-car scoot on the boat the other day. I've had a few bikes but I've never even seen one of these before, any guess on the make?

Jawa?

sorry, not a Jawa. I had one of those, the shifter doubled as the kick start. ( you're on the right side of the planet though!)

well, here's a hint if you can read the small print. if not take another look at the front of the sidecar and the faring.

thats the Russian Yural spelling wrong..they tried importing them in the 90's...we still have a nut that rides one around here everywhere all year https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif

Your Correct, that is a URAL, they still import them, you can either get single or two wheel drive. Those things are fun in the snow and pretty unstoppable. You will not want to ride that thing over 35 on a paved road unless you want to loosen every filling in your teeth. I'd love to have one, although the build quality isn't that great. BMW boxwer knockoff.

Correct - an IMZ-Ural. Word has it 5 BMW's were procurred and copied by the Russians prior to WW2 for this design.

The local cycle boneyard is/was a dealer and any I've ever seen all had the comrade-sidecar option..
