1997 Ural Tourist Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 1997 Ural Tourist classic motorcycle, Ural utilizes a 650 cc (39.7 cu in) air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 32 HP (23.4 kW) while maximum torque reaches 41 Nm (30.2 lb-ft) at 5,200 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 49.2 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
