I remember the Urals Ken, I also remember them being nicknamed the Urinals as well they were tough though as you say. I remember you could get the base model for $799, their was the touring version also which came with a sidecar that looked like a wicker basket on wheels, that cost $999.

Hi Chris, I put a aftermarket exhaust on mine which dropped its weight by 8kg, increased midrange power by 15% and gives it a wonderful street legal growl that still turns heads today. I also removed the small bikini fairing and then adapted a full sports fairing from a Honda CB1100R then added 100w spotlights and a custom sports touring trailer.

Looks awesome now, I'll post a picture tonight if I can find it.

Cheers
