At the heart of the 2009 Ural Retro 750 classic motorcycle, Ural utilizes a 745 cc (45.5 cu in) air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke layout. 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 Retro 750 measures 350 kg (772 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9 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 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 7 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 271 km (168 miles) between fill-ups.
