Built around Ural's classic motorcycle platform, the 2017 Ural M70 utilizes a 749 cc (45.7 cu in) air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 41 HP (29.9 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 57 Nm (42 lb-ft) at 4,300 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 54.7 HP per liter and a 1,200 rpm working window between peak torque (4,300 rpm) and peak power (5,500 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the M70 measures 325 kg (717 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.13 HP/kg (7.93 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 750 mm (29.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops. The 22-liter (5.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 105 km/h (65 mph).
