Welcome

On the following pages you will find some of my personal ideas,
 inventions, modifications and technical hints for the Ural 650,
 official type IMZ 8.103-10 and IMZ 8.103-40

I bought my Ural in 1992 in Leningrad / St. Peterburg, it was really cheap,
 because it is a domestic version (IMZ 8.103-10),  it than was shipped to Germany.
Up to that time everything went fine, but than the problems started:

Registration in Germany is a real problem:
- I had to vistit the customs office,
- I had to ask for a certificate, that the bike is not stolen
- I had to find an officially approved person for a translation of the Russian paperwork
- I had to visit the registration office
- I had to visit TÜV, a special German institution for technical tests
- I had to get a number plate
- I had to visit the regsitration office again and got the offical single vehicle approval
- I finally got my Ural registered

This is only a very shortened version of the real trouble to get an imported motorcycle
 registered in Germany.

       Enjoy my Ural 650 pages!
