URAL Quartermaster motorcycle project

Russian fortitude is at the heart of every URAL motorcycle. The technologies and blueprints that would eventually become the URAL Solo were traded as part of the 1939 non-aggression treaty between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. Battle hardened during WWII, the URAL Solo would serve diligently on the front lines for the soldiers that depended on her.

As widespread as WWII was, it paled in comparison to the Containment Conflicts. Spread across every continent like an undead wildfire, no vestige of humanity was spared. Mobility equaled survival - mobility without stint or limit. With loins girded and back braced for the load, the Quartermaster answered this charge. it was to be a life of hardship and despair, but she had known little else. Her more technological-reliant brethren, fit with impressive componentry and power, struggled to maintain operation through the daily slog of post-humanity. Engineering complexity, once the darling of modern society, had become a mechanical albatross. The need for specialized parts and manufacturing processes had doomed the beautiful machines. Though time hadn't fully reverted back into the dark ages, it had become a very foreboding shade of grey. This was a time of simplicity and ease of use. This was the day when reliability outpaced aesthetic. This was the era of the Quartermaster.

The Quartermaster is a URAL x ICON collaborative project designed to increase the long distance off-road capacity of the URAL Solo. Devoid of the sidecar found on most URALs, the Quartermaster was a single-track beast of burden. Extensive frame modifications, including an oversized backbone, braced headstock, and high clearance subframe, differentiated the Quartermaster from her stable mates, Reinforced swIngarm, long-travel suspension, and knobbed tires provided a surefooted stance when the road ended. The oversized fuel tank, fitted with frisco'd feed lines, made available every ounce of fuel for maximum operational range. Custom skid plate, crash hoops, and high-mount fenders all spoke to her mastery of the unimproved path. Lathered in haze grey from stem to stern, she would survive where on many others had fallen. Ironically, the Containment Conflicts had turned The Quartermaster's workaday looks and antiquated performance specs into the most desirable traits of beauty. Time has a way of evening things out.
