Pustinja II

2017 Ural Pustinja II Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Ural's classic motorcycle lineup, the 2017 Ural Pustinja II 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 52 Nm (38.4 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 Pustinja II measures 332 kg (732 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.1 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 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 7.84 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 242 km (150 miles) between fill-ups.
