2001 Ural Tourist Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Ural's classic motorcycle platform, the 2001 Ural Tourist utilizes a 650 cc (39.7 cu in) two cylinder boxer, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 32 HP (23.4 kW) at 5,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 47 Nm (34.7 lb-ft) at 4,800 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 49.2 HP per liter and a 400 rpm working window between peak torque (4,800 rpm) and peak power (5,200 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Tourist measures 340 kg (750 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.63 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams.

Within MotoLibrary's Ural archive, this model family spans 8 indexed model years from 1994 to 2016, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
