Most major upgrades just for the sake of the upgrade are rarely cost effective. Plus AUD$4K for a 2023GU I'm told!

The first Kazak built Ural rolled out the door from Ural OZ today.👍👍
If you want one with screens etc. then you need to budget for $35k+ 🤣🤣

Adventure Pack for mine last year was $2.6K So, I think we're knocking on $37k+ then add your on roads. Having said that,in my view the main changes are improvements. New Cross shaft is less maintenance and quieter as the slip joint is gone as are grease nipples. Roller tappets may be lower maintenance and quieter as well. Time will tell, as does history.

So, I think we're knocking on $37k+ then add your on roads. Which puts them well and truly out of range for me. Shame really, I was thinking of another one. The knock on effect is that the "used" price being asked is bonkers. $21 K for a 1983 650 $19 K for a 2013 Retro (3,279 Kilometers) although being a Retro it might be worth it? $19 K for a 2015 cT (21,000 kilometers) painted and named Changa $8 K for a 2014 Solo (25,000 kilometers) that still has chair attachments so guessing it was involved in a bingle. Makes 22K for a 2022 with 2,800 kilometers look like a really good deal... I guess you can put any price on a bike, the question is are they selling?

That 22 for $22 is a 17 or 18 model………just sayi’n…………👀
Also, having owned everyone of those models you listed (except the 650) I can say my 2021 is way ahead of all of them…….as it should be.

I have a feeling Frank doesn't know just how much changed between 17 and 22 like Keihin TB's, a decent ECU and 2WD just to name a few?
