Engineered by Ural for the classic motorcycle segment, the 2011 Ural Cross TWD pairs a 745 cc (45.5 cu in) air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 38.9 HP (28.4 kW) at 5,600 rpm while maximum torque reaches 52 Nm (38.4 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 52.2 HP per liter and a 1,600 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (5,600 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Cross TWD measures 338 kg (745 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.69 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 7.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 253 km (157 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 95 km/h (59 mph).
