Dear Vince,
Nice to see you posting in MCM again. The Ural looks great, and a bit more professionally put together than the jury-rigged CJs we mostly see over here.
Which are you riding more -- the Ural or the exquisite W650?
cheers!

I ride the Ural the most because my monkey likes it so much. However after riding the Ural the W650 feels like a rocket ship.

Great photos, thanks for posting.
Awesome pix, Geronimo! Thanks for sharing!
Is this CJ based in Europe now, or did you ship it there for this event?
Have you posted anywhere about the event? I'd love to read about it from the point of view of a rider, and I'd really like to hear how other sidecarists responded to seeing a pristine Changjiang from China!
thanks again!

Is it distasteful to show up at the memorial event on a nazi replica bike? Did anyone care?
I dn't see a problem with it but them frenchers sure enjoy a good reason to get offended.
All tarted and farkled CJ in Beijing....
meanwhile i own 4 CJ's (3 road-ready no 4 will be finished in a few days) so due to that i shipped 1 solo and the repop sidecar to my homelocation in Germany
for the respond on the ride most People mixed here with a real bimmer - i run 16inch tyres which was also the rubber-combo on the real R75 rigs so even more people "bought" it
so far Feedback was OK - noone was offended even the French liked her
just to Keep the mood down we have been wearing US Outfit to represent a "liberated" motorbike used by allied Forces
after 8 weeks seafreight the 2 bikes arrived in germany
