Urals Expected to be in Australia in May 2008

“We expect to have the official market launch on May 24th” – IMZ Ural Australia

The news is out! Ural sidecar motorcycles are expected to be in sunny Australia in early May:

It’s Official!!! Our 2008 Ural bike and sidecar has passed its ADR test for registration. This has been a hurdle stopping import in the past which has now been cleared. Whilst it is cause for celebration and excitement, there is a wait now while the bikes are shipped to Australia. This process has commenced and we expect the likely arrival is early May.

The first shipment is expected to include:

  • Gear Ups: Forest Nato Camo or Desert camo
  • Tourist: Black, Maroon, Dark Blue, Green, Red
  • “Off-road only” Gear Up, with permanent 2-wheel drive, right-hand sidecar, in Forest Nato camo (at least one of these has the sidecar on the “right” side)

Rental Urals? There is also speculation that Urals will be available to rent for use in Australia. Hopefully this comes to pass – Jodie and I are thinking of renting one during a trip to Aussieland later this year.

Congratulations, Ural Australia!
