Technical Overview
2011 Ural Retro Solo Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Positioned in Ural's classic motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Ural Retro Solo relies on a 745 cc (45.5 cu in) air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke powerplant. 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 Solo measures 246 kg (542 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.16 HP/kg (6.32 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 6.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 292 km (181 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 130 km/h (81 mph).
