Rider Profile

Best ForThis rig is best suited to riders who already have experience with sidecar rigs or three-wheeled vehicles, since it steers and countersteers nothing like a normal two-wheeled motorcycle.
PurposeIt exists for slow, deliberate, characterful travel and light off-road exploration rather than for speed or outright distance-eating touring.
Rider FitRiding it demands real upper-body strength and constant muscular input to fight the sidecar's pull, especially at low speed and in turns.
CharacterIt has an old-world, mechanical, unmistakably quirky personality that rewards patience and a sense of adventure over performance expectations.
Not Ideal ForIt is not for anyone wanting quick, agile handling, high speed capability, or a conventional motorcycling experience.

2016 Ural Scrambler Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Ural Scrambler, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
