I spoke to a lad on one of my sites who was riding a ural with a sidecar,he expained to me it was a difficult thing to ride,but he had learned and made adjustments to how he rode, quote " turning is now a completely different monster" Art and I have had our moments,but he is correct,the Urals are a difficult bike to manage. I FEEL TERRIBLE, for the family, and I personally could not fathom the hurt of losing a child,it breaks my heart even thinking of it. I'm sure the father would have gladly given his life if his son could live.
