back into posession is one thing, now I will have the struggle to get a number plate. the bureaucratic has me still in its fist.
As for today I will have to make inventory once again, as the boxes have been opened by some other agency.

Well guys, since i bought my 2006 Tourist I've been driving it in the sun, snow wind and rain. Up and down the mountains and in and out of the valleys. High octaine (91) is the way to go. It performs perfectly in all elemets and elevations with 91.
I have a 96 2WD with a 900 BMW engine coming my way. Should be here in about 2 weeks. What do I need to know about this thing? Any advice will be appreciated. I have only seen pictures of it. 2WD,leading link front end. About all I can say right now. Thanks J.R. Tex rep
Hello JR,
2 things: Do not engage the 2 wheel drive on hard surface. only when the ground is slippery : mud, snow, LOOSE gravel....
If You stay with the original Ural gear box. learn to stay with the revs in the the green area. above 5200 revs the gears do not mesh well and you can chip off the claws. (from 3rd into 2nd gear you have to change gear with double clutch and intermedium gas )
The 900ccm Boxer was something like 68hp. that is a 65% power plus. the drum brakes are not prepared for that possible surplus speed. so enjoy the power reserve, but control your gas hand for to stay on the safe side.
I still wait for the number plate and am interested how my Ural will behave here in our mountains. The first escape on "officer's demand" was fun. Gas change from regular 91oktane to premium 95oktane was hearable an improvement.
Sven 🙂
